    Helping Children With Autism Fight Back

    Sensory Swim is helping children with autism fight back against the dangers of wandering one extremely enjoyable, exceedingly effective, perfectly fitted, private swim lesson at a time.

    To this day it's still unknown what causes Autism but the fact remains that children with Autism are prone to wandering away much like seniors with Dementia or Alzheimer's. There's no way to put it gently that most of these incidents become fatal.

    At Sensory Swim we've dedicated our whole lives to helping children with autism learn how to swim because we personally know what it feels like to loose a loved one to drowning and the regret that comes with knowing that there was something that we could have done.

    Private swim lessons at Sensory Swim reduces the chance of your autistic child drowning by as much as 88%.

    Our mission in life is to equip your child with the skills needed to survive if God forbid they ever bolt from you and end up in a body of water. Almost 50% of children with autism wander.

    My wife & I spend close to 80 hours a week in pools all across America trying to equip as many kids as we possibly can but there is only two of us. The need is great , the resources are few.

    Drowning is the cause of approximately 90% of deaths when a child with autism elopes. The other 10% are encounters with strangers, restraints, falls, traffic injuries, hypothermia, dehydration & exposure to extreme elements.

    Private swimming lessons give your autistic child the best chance of survival.

    When the rescue team finally finds your child you want the news papers to read "Missing Autistic Child Found In Lake.... Swimming!!!

    Helping children with autism learn to swim is all we do. It's not easy & it's not quick. It's not a sprint but a marathon but it's a race worth running.
