Both of my kids were terrified of the water when we started.(Even baths resulted in meltdowns and tears.) Susanne and their teacher Brittany helped them learn that no wasn’t the answer. They have to say«I will try.» These are the only lessons they’ve taken where they learned not to breathe in water by humming while they are under water. So good and so worth the money.

Horrible experience with our 9yr old daughter. I explained to Suzanne how she was afraid of the water so she recommended the more expensive private lessons. During the first(and only) lesson, the instructor was far too agressive and had her going under water multiple times within a short period of time. That resulted in our daughter sucking in way too much water, getting choked and being terrified. She cried the whole way home and declared she was never going to lessons again. Thanks LSI. I do NOT recommend for kids who are afraid of water. Otherwise, probably fine.

So finding a swim instructor to improve your stroke is one thing but I needed to learn to swim first. Since this was something that has bothered me for so long and since I was feeling limited by my fear I decided to «dive in» as they say. I found Susanne the owner of LSI after searching quite some time for someone that would also work with my 3 month old. I’ve read plenty about the lack of benefits of introducing babies to swimming earlier than 6 months but I didn’t want him to have the same fear I had. Susanne, was and is wonderful. The first time my husband and I observed her she was working with a group of little swimmers. She was caring and spoke with them on their level. Right away we knew that she would be great with our little boy. Then the first day of our lesson arrived… I was nervous… Susanne, as we knew would, did a wonderful job with our son, he seemed so calm and just smiled the whole time. Then came time for the true test … with me… Susanne brought her calming voice to my level and had me start with the basics of breathing. I never knew breathing would and could be such a hard thing to grasp but I finally have it… well a majority of the time :) She has since made me feel very comfortable but more so she has allowed me to find a confidence within myself I didn’t know I could have while in the pool. At LSI they run their sessions in ½hr blocks but you can book longer if you wish. Her privates are on Mondays, as far as I know, which is a bit restricting; hey she is worth adjusting your schedule for. LSI’s pricing is very reasonable for the skills you end up learning but I am not sure how they compare with other instructors around Boise.
