As two adults, we decided to take swimming lessons at Farber. We are both very different skill levels [one a triathlete, and one unable to even exhale under water] and at the end ...

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/12/2013

We have been so happy with my son's swim lessons at Farber. This was his first lessons without us, and he has done wonderfully with Teacher Adam. He has gained confidence quickly. We also like the small pool setting, not so stimulating and overwhelming for small children. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/11/2013

I love this swim school! We started just a month ago but I can already see that my 10 year old daughter is improving! We chose to go the private lesson route because she was worried about being with toddlers at the rec center and being too old to learn to swim. This is the perfect option for her! more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/11/2013

We are so impressed with Farber Swim School. We started with Farber when our daughter was almost 2. At first she was very tentative, crying and not happy about learning to swim; now at 3 1/2 she can swim the length of the pool and even dive in to retrieve rings in the deep endl! We continue to be amazed by her progress every week. Farber Swim school is a great way to give the kids the personal attention they need. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/11/2013

We started taking swimming lessons for our child a few weeks ago. So far we have been very pleased with our experience. Lindsey is a great teacher and gives each student the attention that they need. The pool is so warm, and fairly priced. The faciliys could be updated, hopefully in time. It is a joy to see Fellow parents that are in our childs class that have been coming much longer and see how confident they are in their skills. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/11/2013

Great school, very good instructors. Experienced, patient and friendly. My daughter loved Katie. We went to Conestoga for many years and didn't get much progress as most time was spent standing by the side of the pool. After several private lessons at Farber, my daughter was able to dive - something she tried to learn to do for a year.\r Olga more

Editorial review from Citysearch 6/14/2012

As two adults, we decided to take swimming lessons at Farber. We are both very different skill levels [one a triathlete, and one unable to even exhale under water] and at the end of every lesson we both felt we had learned, improved, and had plenty to work on until our next lesson. Adam and Kristin were very flexible, patient, and helpful. I highly recommend them for adult lessons! more

Patience is Everything! 1/18/2012

Between tubes in his ears, fear of water and being deaf without his hearing aids my son was afraid of water to the extreme. It isn't easy to start lessons at the age of 14. We tried other places but never got the results or quality of lessons found at Farber Swim School. His instructor, Amanda, had the right of amount of patience, compassion and determination to overcome those fears and step by step learn to swim. It's not an overnight process and if you have a child this afraid of water it takes time...but it is absolutely worth it to go to Farber Swim School. more

Can't Say Anything Better! 1/25/2011

We love Farber Swim School. My kids are becoming confident in the water. I have an Autistic child who couldn't put his head under water before we started. Now he can jump in the pool from the side and swim back over to the side. Skyler is FULL of energy and can keep up with any kids. The kids love and trust him 100%. I know we will have little fish who can swim on their own this summer. more

Best Swimming Coaches in town 1/9/2011

Adam and Skyler are awesome. They got my 5 year old swimming the length of the pool in a very short period of time. My 5 year old is not only safe in the water but loves the water as well. Just a year ago my 3 year old would not go near the water, but with Adam's great coaching and kindness my 3 year old can now jump in the water and swim very short distances. He looks forward to his weekly lessons. Skyler is full of fun and enthusiasm and both my boys leave the lesson laughing each time. Wherever Adam and Sklyer go we will be following. more

Fantastic staff! Great instruction! 1/4/2011

My 3 year old daughter can swim for short distances underwater and is gaining confidence in herself as a swimmer! My 15 Month old son is floating on his back by himself. We plan to keep our kids swimming in this school until they can play carefree and safely in the water. Skyler is so fun to watch with my Daughter. He really keeps her confidence up. more

Learn or advance your swimming skills @ Farber! 6/22/2010

I was introduced to Adam by a friend after he had taken some lessons with him. I had just been informed by my orthopedic surgeon that I needed to reconsider my exercise options due to severe osteoarthritis in my hips, with swimming being the #1 option. Except at age 45, I did not know how to swim and was skeptical I would ever learn. That is, until I worked with Adam. He has the style and personality to work with people of all ages and was very patient and encouraging to me. Unfortunately, the pool where we were meeting at the time became unavailable after 6-7 months of weekly lessons, but it was enough for me to be more comfortable in the water. A year later I am now swimming 1-mile laps, and I know I could never have accomplished that without Adam! (Thank you, Adam!)\r \r I would not hesitate to recommend Farber Swim School and am likely to return for more advanced lessons. more
