About Nora Martin Swim School:
The Martin family has been teaching swimming in Austin since 1968! The family teaches in Dallas and San Antonio as well as Austin. Nora Martin has been teaching swimming (Power Swimmers) and developmental gymnastics (Mighty Tumblers) in Austin for the past 30 years. Our "child-directed" teaching approach is the cornerstone of our success. When a person's feelings are acknowledged and respected, the student feels safe and trusts the instructor and themselves as well. Learning takes off from that point on!
