Sink or Swim is a family-owned swim school in Summerville, established in 2016, specializing in survival swim lessons for young children and stroke instruction for ages eight months through adult. It also offers adaptive lessons and a swim team. It is a swim-instruction school rather than a kids' summer camp.

★★★★★Francy VivasMelanie at Sink or Swim School was absolutely amazing! She helped me so much getting my kids started with swimming lessons and made the whole process much easier for our family. She was kind, patient, responsive, and truly went above and beyond. We really appreciate all her help. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
★★★★★Chenille WhiteheadMy 2 sons (aged 5 and 3) have been going to Sink or Swim for 14 months almost every week, consistently, and they have gone from not being able to swim at all to both being confident swimmers, with my eldest learning multiple strokes and techniques. They enjoy their lessons and they are invaluable for pool safety which is so important in SC. Recommend to all parents who want their children to learn to swim independently quickly. Our regular instructors are Mr Taylor, Trish and Clint.
★★★★★Melissa WilsonSink or Swim does really great with kids. My son is 6years never swam in big pool before, Clint did an excellent job working with him. He listened to Clint and kept talking about his lesson all day. He really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back. Great 1st time experience! Thank you for taking up time with my kid.
★★★★★Cady KerrMy son started lessons at 18 months and my daughter at 6 months. It was worth every penny! Clint and his instructors are amazing at what they do. Both of my children learned so fast, no time wasted. Now that we have our own pool, they still prove their float on their first jump in every season. It has been the best reassurance knowing they’re as prepared as possible in/near any body of water.
★★★★★Mary CastleSink of Swim is such an amazing part of the Summerville and Lowcountry community. My children have been safe swimmers for several years because of all they’ve learned at Sink or Swim. It is wonderful to see all our friends children who have also learned survival swimming and to know that while we will always be poolside that our kids know what to do when they need help. We come back year after year to reinforce their skills and to learn new skills. Trish and the rest of Clint’s team are wonderful assets to the community.
