Aqua-Tots: Gilbert, Gilbert

At Aqua-Tots Swim Schools, experienced instructors strive not only to equip students with water-safety skills, but also to instill in them a lifelong passion for swimming. To this end, they limit classes to no more than four swimmers to ensure individual attention, and they divide students into eight swimming levels to keep classes challenging. Once students progress to a more advanced swim level, instructors congratulate them with a ribbon and swim certificate, which students can fold into a paper boat and rescue from sinking. In addition to swim lessons, Aqua-Tots hosts family-friendly events throughout the year, from birthday parties to CPR classes.
