Foss Swim School - Chicago (Lakeview)

Thousands of FOSS graduates swim safely and have fun today. Jon Foss and Susan Foss founded Foss Swim School in 1993 to prevent drowning by teaching children excellent swimming skills. After 25 years of experience, Foss Swim School has created an order of skills that is the most effective for students. Each student follows a Swim Path(r) tailored to them to cultivate absolute competency. For over 30 years, Foss Swim School has established how to introduce skills that cultivate ideal learning in young swimmers. This involves introducing skills in a specific order and teaching all students to perform them competently. This method adapts to each student and requires adjusting the sequence. Our swim pool has everything you'd expect from a modern swim school, such as clean and warm water, well-trained instructors, and private changing rooms. We also teach in purpose-built teaching pools where each class gets the attention they need to thrive.

Foss Swim School is highly recommended by patrons of all ages who laud its instructors' enthusiasm, professionalism, and patience, as well as the safe environment. For instance, a senior learned to float after decades of swimming and now enjoys trips with family. Influenced by her teachers, a three-year-old girl learned to float and enjoys classes. The pool's cleanliness is remarkable. Other good reviews about learners feeling welcomed, instructors' support for the child and family, and the school's response to the pandemic and children's fears. The place is always busy, but both the management and the staff show concern for everyone. These reports demonstrate that the school is suitable for nervous swimmers and first-timers regardless of their educational or professional background. Recommendations are also made.
