“Our kids have made tremendous progress with Curt in the last few months compared to other programs. His one on one focus has paid big dividends for our girls. Curt is very skilled as a swim instructor and has given our girls great confidence in the water. I would highly recommend him to anyone and is money well spent.”
Debbie & Mike Riley
“We have seen so much positive change in our son's swimming skills since taking him from the overloaded classes he had been attending and bringing him to Splash School. The one on one instruction is great but the mutual respect that we see between teacher and student is inspiring.
We will continue to recommend Splash School to our friends and family!”
Troy & Tina Turcotte
“At Splash, my children are learning proper swimming techniques. Curt instructs students while paying close attention to the details all while making the class fun. I have no doubt that my children are getting the individual attention they need to swim with confidence!”
