As a 36 year old that didn’t know how to swim and was scared of water, I didn’t know where to start. After talking it over with Faith I decided to join swimming lessons as an adult. Was I scared? Yes…. Was I petrified?!? Yes….. Was it worth it?!? Absolutely

From the very first class, up until today, I have felt safe every minute in the pool. I’m not sure how both Faith and Gracie can be so understanding when teaching someone older than them one of life’s “essential functions”. I am proud to say that I can swim the length of the pool without help and put my face in the water while doing so. I am looking forward to being able to have a little fun in the water this summer thank you girls for changing my life

I would highly recommend taking lessons from these two! Gracie has taught our son so much over the last 6 month.

We love Barracuda swim lessons!! We enrolled our daughter when she was about six months old, she is now three and a half and absolutely LOVES the water! Faith and Gracie have made her feel comfortable and safe. She can independently swim around, jump in, and float on her back. We recently have enrolled our 10 month old in their lessons too and he has been all smiles. The value of swim lessons in young kids is immeasurable, and Barracuda swim is well worth the time and investment!

We've had our granddaughter in swim lessons with Faith for awhile now...I would highly recommend this swim teacher ...Braelyn enjoys her lessons and always looks forward to the next one...she's gained self confidence and learned how to swim at the same time...there are times when it's hard to get Braelyn to concentrate on the task at hand but Faith is able to keep her on track...all the while enjoying what she's doing......not always easy to do!!!  Thanks Faith....we really appreciate it.

Faith is the most patient and amazing swim instructor for kiddos!

My daughter started swimming lessons back in July. She’s been scared of water since she was 6 months old. Baths were a huge challenge. We decided to try swimming lessons with Faith and see how it would go. Faith was/is extremely patient with her and gained her trust after about a month. She now jumps off the side with no help and goes underwater without a fuss. She knows the technique of how to stay afloat in the water and keeps progressing every week. I highly recommend Faith for your kids!

Faith Phelps is an excellent swim instructor. She is great with my kids, and is so patient with them. She made learning how to swim very fun!

My 2 year old daughter had a fabulous experience with Faith! She was motoring herself around in the pool within her first lesson! She has always loved water but had never had actual lessons before and it was amazing to watch her learn so quickly!! Highly recommend!!

All 3 of my kids absolutely loved Miss Faith and learned so much. My youngest went from screaming about getting in the pool to jumping into the water by himself. If you are wondering if this would be a good decision for your children or even yourself, it is!

My son has been in lessons for a couple months now! He went from being paranoid about even a dip of water on his face and requiring a floaty of some kind to jumping in the pool without any floaters! The instructors are soo kind and patient! I totally recommend Barracuda!!!

Love Barracuda Swim Club! Faith and Gracie were fabulous with my kiddos this summer. It was the first swim lessons for both of them. My 7 year old daughter learned how to swim underwater without floats and without holding her nose that month. My now 4 year old son who has been so fearful in the water just relaxed and finally would jump in the water from the edge of the pool.

Faith and Gracie have blown me out of the water with their wonderful teaching skills. They have turned my kids who were anxious around water into confident swimmers, what a load off this momma’s shoulders! They take the time to get to know each student and what works best for them individually to set them up for success, all while having fun. I couldn’t recommend them enough.

My three year old son is enrolled in swim lessons with Barracuda Swim Club and we would recommend these swim lessons to everyone, his instructor is Miss Faith.  For the past three months we have been taking private lessons and he has learned many skills as he progresses his swimming abilities.  We never could have believed that one-day-a-week swim lessons would provide such progress and advance his swimming skills tremendously, Barracuda Swim Club really knows what they are doing.  Miss Faith is such an awesome teacher, she has patience and is so kind to the children, but she is also super fun while instilling lifesaving skills.  Our son LOVES going to his swim lessons and he doesn’t even realize how hard he is working because he is having too much of a good time, and I see how much he is learning through Miss Faith’s teachings.  A continue love for the water while learning such lifesaving skills is what Barracuda Swim Club provides and Miss Faith does it with passion and care for the children, it is such a wonderful program!

5 stars! My daughter learned more in 2 months with Grace than the last 3 summers of swim lessons. I highly recommend Barracuda Swim Club!

We are so impressed with and recommend Barracuda Swim Club to everyone!  Miss Gracie and Miss Faith are so wonderful with our children (3 & 5 years old).  Our boys went from not wanting their faces wet in the bath, to canon-balling in from the side of the pool. Our 5 year old went from a total beginner to being able to swim the length of the pool with no floaties within 6 months.  So thankful that they are being taught this lifesaving skill, and will continue our lessons as our kiddos have so much fun and cannot wait for swimming nights!

I can’t say enough good things about Barracuda Swim Club. When my daughter was born it was mid winter and I had terrible post partum. I needed to get out of the house and I was desperately looking for mommy and me classes. I couldn’t find any and none would take my daughter under 6 months. She was only 5 weeks. Faith happily took us in and let me get in the water with them the first month or two. We’ve been in lessons ever since and just hit our three year mark! We live way up in the Heights and it’s worth our weekly drive to Laurel. My daughter adores and trusts Faith and I wouldn’t dream about switching instructors because she’s bonded so much with Faith. We have gotten to know Gracie through make up lessons, and we love her too! They are both wonderful and each push my daughter to excel. My three year old is swimming upright without a floaty and just recently swimming on her back with a floaty. It’s incredible and they have brought her so far! I can’t recommend them enough!

We have two young boys who take weekly one on one lessons with Miss Gracie. They absolutely adore her! Every time we drive by the Locomotion they ask if it’s time to see Miss Gracie! 🤣 They are taught at a pace that they are comfortable with and have learned to love the water while being safe. I can’t wait to see their progress!

Our family absolutely loves Barracuda swim! Our boys 3,6 and 8 have made huge strides in their swimming skills. In just three months of lessons they have gone from very minimal swimming skills to being able to swim independently! We look forward to continuing lessons.

Faith & Gracie are the sweetest! Each of my kids have bonded to their instructor and swim lessons are the high light of their week! I can’t say enough good things about Faith and how she’s worked with my little to overcome her separation anxiety and now to continue her progress even while in a cast! I recommend them to anyone and everyone looking for swim lessons!

Great swimming program! The teachers work incredibly well with the kids. My kids all started out at different skill levels and were not confident in the water. These one on one lessons have made all the difference. It has been so fun to watch them progress each week. We wanted to make sure our kids had a strong swimming foundation and this program provides that! I highly recommend!

Barracuda Swim has been a fantastic experience for my young son to be introduced to the water and swimming. Gracie is wonderful with him. If he has fears she slowly introduces him to the new concepts. We love our weekly swim lessons, my son actually asks multiple times a week if we can go. He loves it, and I feel better knowing he is going to be safer in the water from the knowledge and skills he is learning now. We highly recommend the girls at Barracuda Swim!

Faith and Gracie have helped my kids immensely! My 7 year old can finally, truly swim. They took my more reserved 2 year old that couldn’t swim and was pretty shy and turned her into a confident 3 year old that is seriously swimming for quite awhile by herself. Wow! My almost 2 year old is having a blast in the pool. Faith and Gracie make it so fun for the kids. We all look forward to lessons every week!
