"My two boys now 9 and 12 started swimming with Alyson when they were barely walking.  Between group lessons and private lessons with Alyson my children became avid swimmers at very early age.  Her teaching techniques with my children worked!  She is persistent and consistent and doesn’t take no for an answer.  She makes learning how to swim fun.   My younger son has always been a bit of a challenge.  He is the kid who is under water when the teacher is talking.   Alyson took my challenging son and dedicated herself to making him a better swimmer and making him interested in learning.   Her dedication carved the pathway for both my sons to join the local swim team   They both LOVE to swim and we owe that all to Alyson."

"My son, while extremely athletic, was always nervous in and around the pool. He would shy away from getting in with his friends and always hung around the shallow end of the pool. Through her gentle and compassionate approach, Alyson was able to work with my son to build his confidence in the water. They worked on skills in the shallow end until he was confidently moving across the pool. Slowly they worked their way to using these skills at varying depths until he was smiling his way to the deep end. "
