Debbie’s Swim School

Two summers of city pool lessons and he wouldn’t fully immerse his face underwater. 3 weeks of two lessons per week with Debbies swim school (once a week w Debbie herself) and he’s fully immersed, breathing, stroking and swimming without contact !!
I’m totally impressed by the quality of the lessons here.

Debbie is absolutely the best Aqua Instructor I have ever met. She taught my then scared and deathly afraid of the water 7 year old how to feel comfortable in the water and how to swim. Now she is 9 and swimming fast laps with beautiful strokes. Debbie has the patients of a saint and works at the child’s level of comfort. She is amazing with children and adults. Her Aqua Tone classes are my physical therapy and much better than any clinic. I had brain surgery and was unable to use my right hand for several months but when I was cleared by my doctor I was back in the pool with Debbie working on strengthening my muscles and I finally have most of my feeling back. She has different fitness levels to meet anyones physical fitness needs and also takes the time to explain the movements and their benefits. I would highly recommend her swim school to anyone looking to better their swimming goals.

I’m 65 years old and never learned to swim, I thought I might be too old to learn until I met Debbie and her instructors. Not only am I learning how to swim, I’m opening up new areas of recreation, like kayaking, boating, snorkeling etc. Its exciting and they make the lessons productive and fun.
Recently I’ve been taking lessons with Melanie. She is amazing! She is very knowledgeable, skillful, and puts a lot of extra effort in preparing for and setting goals for each lesson, but at the same time, gives you lots of support and confidence (and patience!) if you have difficulty.
Thanks so much to Melanie and Debbie for opening up a whole new world for me!

I had been wanting to learn to swim for a long time and so I was talking about it with a friend and she so happened to know Debbie from a while back, and so she highly recommended her to me. So I went booked my lessons and in a few weeks I was able to move by myself in the water and play without so much fear. From then on, I have been getting better and better. She and her instructors are very professional, helpful and patient. Their knowledge and experience is impecable and they always make it fun.
Thanks so much Debbie!

Debbie is not only a wonderful swim instructor but she is multifaceted and another facet of her business is Aqua Aerobics. She gives you the best workout you will ever get. She just doesn’t go through the motions, she motivates you and makes it fun and makes you want to come back for more. She explains why you do every exercise and movement and encourages you to push yourself to make you healthier and look better. She gets to know her students and encourages you to tell her what you want to work on and she will incorporate your request in the class. She teaches three levels in each class so no matter what your level is your needs are addressed. Debbie is genuinely concerned about every student and giving each and every one of them the attention they need. Safety is her number one concern and Debbie makes sure that the non-​swimmers are doing the exercises in a manner that will not put them at risk for an accident so even if you don’t swim you can totally enjoy a safe and effective workout.
You can find Debbie at the In-​Shape in Suisun City, she has morning and evening classes. Check on line for In-Shape’s most up to date Aqua Aerobics schedule.

I am the mother of a beautiful little girl who has special needs and also happens to love the water. She made amazing progress on her own by learning to hold her breath under water and trying to float, but she needed some extra help. I was referred to Debbie’s Swim School and that is where we met Robbie. He has been amazing with my daughter who after only a few weeks has learned to swim on her own. It may not be perfect, but her and Robbie are working on it. He is so wonderful with her and just a great swim teacher. It has been great to work with Debbie and her staff as well, so I can’t wait to continue on with my daughter’s classes. She will be enrolled as long as they will let me.
Best swim lessons around is my official review.

I was referred to her by a friend that said she might be able to help. working with Debbie was a breeze, she’s easy to talk to and very down to earth. You can tell she truly wants to help her students what ever their goals for the water might be.
I’m a survival freak and wanted to learn some techniques to maximize my chances in a water emergency. She showed me how to save myself and someone else if I had to…

Debbie is absolutely amazing! I had the pleasure of becoming lifeguard certified and WSI certified with her. She is by far one of the best teachers I have ever had in my life. You can tell that she is very knowledgeable about aquatics and is passionate about teaching it to other people. If anybody needs to be certified in anything water related she is definitely the one to go to. She makes the classes fun and you will retain the information you have learned.
She is one of the kindest and most patient people I have ever met especially when it comes to her clients. She gets to know each of her clients on a personal level and adapts to their needs. She is very understanding of what people want to achieve in learning how to swim and takes it nice and slow. If you were to take swim lessons with Debbie you are guaranteed to be swimming in just a few months. She is worth every penny.
I highly recommend Debbie for any of your aquatics needs whether it is to be certified or learning how to swim or getting a good workout in aqua aerobics. She is the best of the best.
