Nitro Swimming

Just want to drop you a note to tell you that I appreciate all your hard work teaching the kids- my daughter had her first lesson earlier today and unlike the other classes she had in the past, you made sure they could accomplish the task before they go to the next level. She's only 4 but I plan of putting her to swim lessons all year round- she really loves to swim and dream of swimming in the big pool in the future w/ the older kids.

We would recommend Nitro to anyone looking for the highest quality lesson experience anywhere. I actually came by yesterday afternoon and signed my daughter up. She had her first class and LOVED it!! We have 2 friends coming in today to sign their children up, too. We are thrilled with their program and look forward to hopefully working up to swim team.

Coach Mike --We want to thank you for providing top notch swimming lessons, great and patient coaches, a friendly staff and a top notch swim facility. Steven has done a variety of sports (including swimming at the YMCA) over the last year and a half, but none has captured his enthusiasm and dedication as much as Nitro swimming has. In fact, Steven was going to play soccer this fall, but insisted with continuing his swimming lessons instead.

My trio are 5 years old and were stamped water safe from Nitro Swimming after completing one swim class. But I should mention they have always been comfortable in the water. We were at SPI last summer and the weather was spotty i.e. sunny/raining off and on. Well we didn't let the rain stop us from playing in the sand and waves. Well on the last day while I stayed back to pack up so we could head on over to Corpus... the girls and daddy went for one last jaunt on the beach. the weather got NASTY QUICK! Rachel got pulled out and was being tossed about and was totally frightened -- she's my least confident in the water. Skyler was getting tossed about as well. Jessie too but she was closer in and a very strong and confident swimmer. So it got dark and stormy FAST. Eddy was setting down the beach stuff and looked up and had to race out and get Rachel who was screaming for him while floating on her back! Floating on her back was something she learned at Nitro. She knew how to stay afloat which probably saved her life. Skyler and Jessie were handling themselves better but he still had to grab Skyler as well. Scary stuff. We were so grateful that they had learned how to swim and be safe in the water just a month prior to our trip. Nitro Swimming taught our kids how to swim and be safe. LOVE NITRO SWIMMING.

Pros: Great instructors, indoor facility, proven teaching program

Mike, I'm sure you've heard this a million times, but thank you so much for opening an indoor swim center. Yesterday I was able to get Maddie to swimming without all the arguing, cajoling and bribing that went on last year when the kids had to swim outside. When I picked her up at school, she excitedly told her friends she couldn't wait to go to swimming because it would be warm in there. Thank you for offering this great facility to the kids of Austin.

Pros: safe & fun environment, cardio equipment, heated pools

I just wanted to take a minute & thank you & Tracy for the wonderful environment you've created at Nitro. Samantha & Kelsey have made so much progress since starting swim lessons there this summer. Kelsey has always dreaded swim lessons, but you & your instructors have made it fun for her; she's usually bubbling with excitement about what she learned after the lesson. I've enjoyed the fun & fitness sessions too. I can see such an improvement over where I started.

Pros: Instructors, lesson times, parking, location
