Our Program

The Swimming Hole offers private lessons for swimmers who need to overcome specific roadblocks preventing swim success. Roadblocks include discomfort, anxiety, or a delay in learning to swim with traditional lessons.

Our Instructor

Elaine Fortin, Certified Adaptive swim instructor and specially trained Swim Whisperer® Certified in Swim Angelfish® methodology

Swimming is healthy exercise for the body and the soul of every human, regardless of physical and mental capabilities. Everyone can learn some level of independence in the water. The Swim Angelfish/Swim Whisperer methodology helps even the most challenged individuals safely enjoy the pleasures and joys of a water environment.”

Our Testimonials

“From the very first lesson, my son, who minutes before was petrified of
putting his head in the water, was sticking his face in the water. He made
giant leaps of improvement at each lesson. In three lessons he was
completely swimming under water! The gentleness and method of this program
absolutely has saved our summer and probably saved our son as well. I could
not be more  thrilled and impressed with the calming manner and ways that
Elaine was able to help my child be brave, over come his fear, and be safe
in the water. Now he finally gets to be a kid and enjoy it so much. The
water is now his favorite place to be, And that is all because of Elaine and
Swim Angelfish.”
–   Jennifer Andelin
“We have a 22 month old son named Finn and he was so scared of the water and
because of Elaine, he’s really looking forward to the water now and learning
how to swim. He wakes up in the morning now saying “Let’s go swim!” so thank
you , Elaine, for making him feel comfortable in the water and learning the
essential skills.”
– Suzanne Colodny
