We've been bringing both of our kids to Silver Bear Swim School since they were very young, and we couldn't be happier. The instructors are amazing, patient, knowledgeable, and truly care about helping each child succeed. The office staff is always friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful as well. What really sets Silver Bear apart is how personable everyone is. They take the time to get to know each child, build relationships with them, and make them feel comfortable and confident in the water. Because of their dedication, both of our kids have become such confident, capable swimmers. We highly recommend Silver Bear to any family looking for a swim school that genuinely cares about their students! read more

We have had our children at Silver Bear Swim for over 5 years. After checking out our local swim lessons for our 1 year old, we made the switch. We drive from Douglas County to Reno once a week and have done this the last 5 years because Silver Bear has been great with our kids. They have made lots of growth and it is because of the structure of the program and the teachers. Highly recommend. read more
