With locations in Garden City and Syosset we train over 2,000 children each week at every swim level from Beginner to Olympian. Long Island Swim School offers swim lessons for children ages 2 - 14years old. The main emphasis of our programs is to teach children to swim correctly and develop essential water skills in a relaxed environment. Our goal driven and technique oriented approach is the key to your child's success. Through skill based quality teaching our students develop a joy for learning and a passion for swimming. At Long Island Swim School, we teach children to swim the same way the best in the world do. By using age-appropriate, proven techniques children build real skills in kick, pull, body position, and breath control. Our logical, consistent progression turns every fundamental—whether blowing bubbles or learning butterfly timing—into a building block for efficient, confident swimming. Our professional staff are swimmers and coaches with the knowledge to give your child the skills to achieve more than just water safety. We provide the best foundation possible for success. Not every child will dream of Olympic glory, but every child should have the foundation to take them there.

Alex Rodriquez was the Sportsmanship award winner of the state tournament and was a member of the Calhoun High School baseball team, which captured the title of Long Island Champions in June of 2012.  He guided the pitching staff on Calhoun High School's 14-game winning streak. He's a quiet leader, but a definite influence on the outcome of the teams' games. Offensively he batted .410 with two homeruns in the playoffs. He is an integral part and will be missed as a member of the Calhoun baseball team. _____________________ Keep up with all of the local news by signing up for the Merrick Patch newsletter. <a href="https://merrick.patch.com/newsletters" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Click here to do so. </a>
