About Watersafe

Unmatched Excellence in Swim Lessons for the Local Community

Watersafe Swim School has a solid reputation in the local community for providing the highest quality lessons available. Our teachers are carefully chosen and extensively trained and certified through the nationally recognized Smart Fish Academy. We believe love and understanding within a structured, innovative environment will produce a safe, happy swimmer. Our loving teachers truly believe that each child is an individual. Therefore, we strive to personalize the instruction to fit each student’s special needs and abilities.

The award-winning “Smart Fish” curriculum was developed by Ginny (Flahive) Ferguson and her daughter Karen Flahive Nance at Watersafe Swim School. Since 1971, this comprehensive method has successfully taught survival skills and advanced technique to thousands of students (from birth to adulthood). The Smart Fish Method is an ever evolving process that incorporates up to date research and scaffolding principles to provide all students with the opportunity to master the fundamentals that efficiently transition into the same winning stroke technique used by the national, world, and Olympic champions.
