| I simply can't say enough Great things about Floaties. We have been part of the "Floaties Family" for many years. Over these years I have consistently seen them do everything they can to meet the needs of the customers they serve, no matter the issue.
Both of my kids participated in the first swim meet for the Floaties Triton Swim Team. Thank you Mr. Mike, Ms. Nicole, and Ms. Karyn for all the skills and encouragement you give to them each time they swim. They both respect all of you and the program you have developed. Mr. Mike was my daughters' first swim teacher -- she is now 5 years old -- and to have him there as she got out of the pool to get her first 1st place ribbon in 25 freestyle -- I even caught him with a tear in his eye! My 9 year old also learned his strokes from Mr. Mike and Ms. Nicole -- he is a fish now -- and dreams of being in the Olympics. The Strokes Class was such a wonderful addition to the program. Added a perfect element for the older kids.
As a parent - the most important thing is that my kids are water safe - enjoy what they are doing, and are surrounded by people who have their best interests at heart-- that is what you get from Floaties. This is a caring school based on a passion for water safety. The strokes class motto of "practice doesn't make perfect; perfect practice makes perfect" helps the older kids achieve their goals.

Karyn, Mike, Brandon, Tracy, I want to thank you so much for such a positive swim experience. I had heard of your school when you were running out of your home pool and knew I would love it. AT the time, the summer slipped away and I just waited for the following season. Then I heard of the new facility. WOW, what a success for you guys and just a wonderful layout for a swim school. The whole atmosphere feels warm, inviting, and clean. Tracy and Brandon - what can I say! I have been nothing but impressed with your talent and love of kids. Andrew and Emily can't wait to get in the pool each lesson. Drew practically brings tears to my eyes ( when I have the chance to watch him ) when I see his progress. It is great to know that he is pretty much pool safe, of course he will always be watched carefully near the water, but I feel he could probably get out of the water if he ever fell in.Emily - she has learned to respect the water which is HUGE! she is my little fish! I loved watching Emily jump to you with full confidence, even when she landed on her tush! She looked forward to her high fives and a spin to follow! Something about that ceiling is just too fun! I can't wait to see a safety circle from her as she gets old enough. But her smile and baby steps towards swimming are amazing. Thank you both for your time and commitment. My kids love you both dearly. Mike - It was great starting lessons with you and now continuing with you has been wonderful. Emily must remember you since she went right to you. She didn't do that during Tracy's only absence. Emily chose not to swim too much that evening. I worried switching would make Emily take some steps backwards, but your natural talent and comfort made for a smooth transition. I think it has actually given her a little spark to start working harder again. I love seeing the polar bear arms and just her independence in the pool grow. Karyn - Thanks for making the schedule happen. I know how crazy busy the business took off and you still made it happen. You guys have truly made a comfy environment that just radiates dedication to and love of swimming. Front Desk Crew - Thanks for putting up with me during scheduling time! and of course, thank you for the for the sweet greetings each and every time we come to class. Your hard work is appreciated.

| WOW! Okay, can I just tell you guys that Mr. Mike is the world’s most amazing swimming instructor. We have been singing his praises since our first lesson. You guys are so wise to utilize the special gift that God has given you. Gina Poage |
| Hi Nicole!
Thank you so much for getting Jack and Andrew into lessons at your swim school. What an amazing place. It is night and day from the lessons they have had in the past. I love how you seem to encourage them to use their natural buoyancy to float through the water. No frantic flapping the arms and crazy kicking to stay afloat, it seems so calm. Jack LOVED the lesson. It must be the environment, and the teacher, obviously. He was very comfortable in your pool with you. YEA! Andrew had a great lesson too.
Thanks again, we'll see you Thursday! Emily |
| Dear Mr. Mike, Thank you for all you have done. Swimming has never been so fun or rewarding. Best of Luck! The Green Family |
| Dear Floaties Swim School, Our three year old son Ian was at a party last week when he fell into the swimming pool. Instead of panicking and possibly drowning, Ian was able to remain calm and remember what he needed to do to save himself. He put his head down and swam to the side of the pool and got out all by himself. You truly saved my son’s life. Always grateful, The Kelly Famil |
| Dear Karyn and Mike,
We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much we have enjoyed bringing our daughter, Maytal, to swim lessons at Floaties this past year. She came to you as an infant who was scared of the water and she is now a toddler who is "water-proofed" thanks to you! Emma and Eric |
| Mr. Mike has a very special ability to have childrens attention.
He has a special method to teach them and get them to learn
what he is showing them. He knows how to make learning fun.
Mr. Mike is an awesome coach! Ahmavaara Family |
| I would like to say that I cannot say enough what a difference Karyn and Mike and their swim philosophy at Floaties has enhanced my childrens life. Learning to swim is not only a fun thing to do it is also a lifesaving activity. I would definetely recommend them unconditionally. Ruth Leivers |
