Patrice taught my son how to swim within 4 days! She was very patient with him. – Lihn Tong
Between my three kids, we have been to lots of swim lessons. No one is more patient and kind – yet direct with my boys! My 5-year-old was very reluctant to take off the puddle jumper, his fear of sinking was genuine. Patrice had wonderful patience with him and understood his fear and how to get him to face it head-on. By the end of the lessons, he was jumping in the deep end and swimming ACROSS the pool. – Emilie Cisco
My kids love Mrs. Patrice! They improved so much in their swimming skills, so quickly, and it was fun! She helped my littles go from not wanting to put their heads under water to swimming across the pool. – Leslie Cole
Don’t waste your time going to those “swim schools” where they group your kid up with others. My son learned more in 1 week with Patrice versus spending months at the group lesson swim school. I only wish I could have found her earlier to start lessons. Thank you Patrice! – Steve Park
If I could give Patrice 1,000 stars, I would. If you are thinking about using her for swim lessons, stop thinking about it and book her now!!!! We used her for my 5 year old daughter that was terrified to go under or even put her head in the water and would not swim with out her puddle jumper. I reluctantly started swim lessons with Patrice the week before we were going to go on a cruise. I wanted my daughter to have fun in the pool on the cruise and be able to swim. By the end of the 4 days, my daughter was going under non stop and starting to swim on her own. – Jessica Holden
I am so impressed with Patrice teaching my daughter to swim. After wasting our time and money at other swim lessons for years, my daughter still refused to get her face wet. With just 1 lesson with Patrice, my daughter was going under water happily and she even didn’t want to get out of the pool. – Katie Greenwald
My daughter had just turned 3 and loves the water so we wanted to get her in swim lessons. Within the four days of lessons, she was able to hold her breath under water, kick her legs, and know when to come up for air. – Kylie Ledford
I highly recommend Swim with Patrice. The confidence and water safety skills my son has acquired in such a short time is astounding! We went from never being in the water without a puddle jumper to swimming long distances and knowing what to do if he gets tired. He asks to go back to lessons constantly. – Nikki Marie
Patrice was awesome to work with. My 3 year old screamed and cried the first two sessions and Patrice had the patience of a saint. My daughter is confident now in swimming, even after just [1] session. She learned a lot and would highly recommend her. – Demi Perez
Patrice did an amazing job with the girls. So patient and enthusiastic as well are encouraging. My (very shy) girls loved every lesson and told me they couldn’t have a better teacher! After our week of lessons, we practiced and I could not believe how well our girls are swimming. They have been confident fish in the water all summer! – Sarah Spicer
I 100% recommend lessons with Patrice. My three kiddos took 4 lessons with her this summer and learned so much. By the end of the week my two oldest were swimming the whole length of the pool on their own. They have only ever gotten in water with puddle jumpers on. – Ericka Hernandez
Patrice is amazing and worked wonders with my boys. She gave my oldest the confidence boost he needed to swim without a life jacket… – Brittany Phan
I cannot say enough about Patrice. My daughter (11 years old) has been swimming with another instructor for over a year and in the short time she has been with Patrice I have seen huge improvement in her confidence and skills. – Sophia Darling-Smith
Patrice is fantastic !!!! I would recommend her to everyone I know, and have. She took my 8 yr old , who was shy in the water, to a confident water lover. – Cheryl Davis
My daughter was a bit apprehensive about swimming and lacked confidence in the water, but she’d outgrown her swimming floats and was ready to give lessons a try. From the very first day Patrice was warm and welcoming. Her approach built confidence and trust with my daughter. For four days I watched my child transform in the water. She looked forward to getting back to the pool each day. She told me that Patrice felt like a friend. – Alexis Leger
Patrice was absolutely amazing with my son and just what he needed to get over the swimming hump. He was in lessons for a year at another location and made very little progress. After 4 days with Patrice he is swimming independently, happily going under water, and just having so much fun testing his skills. He asks to go to the pool everyday now. I cannot thank her enough for this growth in him because it brings me such peace of mind. -Jesse Foster
Patrice was amazing! Patient, kind, funny, and professional with my 2 kids. She made them comfortable and went beyond my expectations in teaching them. In only 6 lessons, she helped my 4 year old learn to blow the bubbles, float on her back/stomach, and just swim in general, while also helping her learn to articulate what she was doing when talking to me. I was impressed! And my daughter had previously been way too hesitant to try and do any of these things without her floaters and lots of crying. – Emily Nemec
I highly recommend Patrice as your child’s swim instructor. She taught my daughter (7 years old) how to swim confidently in the deep end of the pool after just [1] session. – Kaylee Giffhorn
My son took a week of swim lessons this summer. He went from swimming with support to using nothing at all after the lessons. – Karolina Tenorio
Patrice is awesome! I took adult swim lessons with her and it was an amazing experience! At first I was apprehensive about learning to swim at my “big age” but Patrice never made me feel anything other than capable! She is kind, patient, thoughtful and had me swimming in 3 days!!! – April Carswell
My kids absolutely love Ms. Patrice! I can’t rave about her enough, I have tried a few other instructors before finding her and no one comes close to her level of professionalism! Before we started with her, both of my boys were terrified of swimming with instructors, cried and had major anxiety in the water. She is so caring and nurturing and really teaches based on the child’s own comfort level. Now I have two confident swimmers, thanks to her my 5 year old can swim across the pool, and my youngest is able to swim to safety and can swim without floaties. Highly recommend swim with Patrice, my kids won’t do lessons with anyone else!! – Jill Sanders
I am beyond impressed with the expertise and professionalism from Patrice. My son Paul went from being afraid he would sink on his first lesson to confidently knowing how to get breaths, back float, safety float and swim! – Nicole Fallbacher
My daughter had a traumatic swimming experience when she was very young and Patrice brought her completely out of her shell in 5 lessons! My child has finally started swimming and going under the water because she wants to! We have had many swim instructors over the years, but Patrice stands out… – Stacie Gadlage
She does book up fast, so sign up early. Worth every penny. – Mary Browning
Patrice is actually a miracle worker. I came to her at the beginning of June with a 4 & 5 year old who couldn’t swim at all without their puddle jumpers and didn’t even want to get their faces wet. My 5 year old was resistant and challenged Patrice during lessons, but she was so patient and figured out ways to work with her that would reach her. Now, both my kids are fully and confidently swimming on their own. -Ellie Clifford
