Lessons Info
Learning to swim can be a frightening experience, but it is a critical skill that everyone must have. The team at Mabry Swimming Lessons help students learn to swim through firm instruction, motivation, and lots of laughing. Over the course of a week, sometimes two, the team help students overcome their fear and develop an appreciation for the water and the sport of swimming. We strive to develop students swimming skill, as well as the confidence to use that skill. Ages 18 months and up are accepted. All skill levels are accepted, from not knowing how to swim at all to perfecting strokes and diving in preparation for swim team.
We will offer semiprivate lessons for 30 minutes a day Monday through Friday. There will be 4 instructors with 4 students offering one on one instruction. Many of you are familiar with how we have done it in previous years with hour-long classes and a 2:1 student-instructor ratio. We made the switch to this model several summers ago and have seen tremendous success. We look forward to working with you and your child!
Lessons are $210 per child per week. All payments must be done online via our registration form. We do not accept cash or checks.

Meet Our Owner
“Hey y’all, I am Maddie Mabry and I have been working with Mabry Swim Lessons since I was old enough to swim myself! Not many people know this, but our business was founded nearly 70 years ago by my great grandmother in Metairie, Louisiana. Since then, the gift of teaching children to swim trickled down to my mother and aunts, my sisters and brothers, and now myself! We have significantly expanded in the last few years becoming one of the most widely known swim lessons businesses in the Pine Belt. All my instructors and myself carry a passion for delivering such a vital skill to all ages in the community. We are excited for another summer under the sun and cannot wait to meet you and your kiddos!”

What Parents Are Saying
Casey & Brett Wilberding
I cannot say enough about Maddie and the crew at Mabry Swim. All 3 of my boys have been and we are so thankful. It is so important for our kids to know how to swim, as they are around the pool all summer long. The team is kind, patient and knowledgeable. It isn’t always easy to watch your kids learn how to do something, but this team makes it as easy as possible. My soon to be 3 year old will be back this summer for a refresher and we can’t wait to see Maddie and her crew!

Mabry Swim taught my oldest son to swim in two weeks. It may seem intense, but it absolutely gets the job done. On day one, he could barely blow bubbles or kick, and by the end of the two weeks he could jump off the board and swim to the ladder with a smile on his face. We did lessons for three years, and each year they learned more and more. Mabry Swim made him a confident swimmer and I am forever grateful! Sending a huge thank you to their fabulous instructors!
Kelsey Hester
The experience at Mabry Swim was incredible for Hayden! She has always loved the water, but was terrified to go beyond the shallow. By the end of the week, she was a deep end diva! It was worth every penny for me to have a peace of mind all summer! We’ll be returning this year for a refresher course and she can hardly wait!!
Katelyn Freeman
Water safety has always been one of my top priorities with my children. We started my son in 2020 at 3 1/2 years old. I was very nervous because he is globally delayed. I was worried first about just his muscle strength and being able to swim, period, but also, as a mom, I was worried if anyone would have enough patience to work with him. One of the head instructors, Maggie, is an absolute angel and put all my worries to rest. Her nurturing ways made her the perfect person for my son that year. 2021 rolled around and I signed my son up again, but this time I had a little sister there with me and we surprisingly got her in the pool that week too. I was worried she would be too young but it was perfect! By this year I was confident my son would be able to get to the side of the pool for safety if needed. Fast forward to 2023, by this time I needed someone with patience but wasn’t going to baby my son either. Sometimes he needs a little tough love and motivation. Maddie was phenomenal for that position but still had the patience of a saint. By the end of that summer, my son was diving and retrieving items from the bottom of the pool and my daughter could safely get to the side of the pool. This summer, my baby boy will be 18 months and there is no doubt in my mind where we will be attending this summer. I can’t sing enough praises about Mabry Swim.
