About Us
As parents, we encourage our children’s determination to learn, explore, and grow. At the same time, we realize that with this independence, comes a sense of the unknown. Aquatic Survival Swimming allows parents to encourage that independence while giving them the peace-of-mind that their child is doing so in the safest way possible.
SuperStar Aquatics instructors Leslie, Brittany, and Shannon are energetic, creative professionals who are dedicated to teaching each child the survival swimming skills necessary to enjoy the water safely. Each instructor has over 100 hours of in-water training in addition to education in child development and behavior. Our instructors take pride in their expertise in working with infants and small children and believe that this program allows them to help save lives, one child at a time.
Miss Leslie, Miss Brittany, and Miss Shannon are committed to creating relationships with both students and parents of the program in order to make certain they are all comfortable and confident that each child is ready upon completion of the lessons. The instructors have put their own children through the course and, keeping this experience in mind, are able to put themselves back in those shoes and recognize how the families need to be treated because they’ve been there themselves. Their determination to keep children safe in the water has not stopped with their own families, but is a mentality they have extended to all families in need of this service. Fortunately, they have transformed this passion into a career and intend to stop at nothing to ensure that each child has the opportunity to stay safe and secure while enjoying their time in or around the water.

What we do
SuperStar Aquatics offers infant and child survival swim lessons, focusing on survival swim skills and techniques, for children as young as 6 months old in both Pittsburg, KS and Joplin, MO.
While many parents have utilized traditional swim lessons, often these lessons don’t leave the parents or the children feeling confident in the water. In contrast to learning only the basic swimming skills, Infant Aquatics instructors teach the swim-float-swim method where babies learn to float for survival first, then enhance that skill with proper swim techniques. SuperStar Aquatics focuses on these skills in one-on-one, 10 minute lessons, over a period of six weeks. In addition, they also offer recommended refresher courses to consistently maintain the skill.
Through a consistent flow of repetition and muscle memory, the instructor is able to simulate what to do if the child should fall into water without an adult present. The ultimate goal is that the child is able to get themselves back to safety or float until help arrives in the accidental case of falling into water.
