It was a positive, hands on training environment. The coaches don’t just stand on the deck and give orders or tips. They hop in the water and demonstrate. They give the kids many chances to interact with them and ask/answer questions. My daughter and I both thought it was a great experience. It was neat to watch and listen to (as well as participate in for her)…she went home and wrote down the drills/ tips you gave. – Kimberly in Stony Brook, NY
