SWIM LESSON DESCRIPTIONS
Parent & Tot (6 months - 3 yrs.)
A parent or guardian will receive a guided demonstration to help their child
become more comfortable in the water through song and play. Parents
learn how to work with their children to introduce bubble-blowing, assist
with arm and leg motion, various holds for front and back float, and safety
information. Babies must wear swim diapers under their swimsuits and must
be accompanied in the water by an adult.
Preschool (3 yrs. - 5yrs.)
Introduction to the water without a parent. This course is designed to help
your child to become more water confident. They will learn to open their eyes
underwater, breathing control through blowing bubbles and breathholding,
assisted floating, kicking, and safely entering and exiting the pool. The course
focuses on water adaptivity, safety, and fun.
Level 1 - Introduction to Water Skills (6+)
For children with little or no experience with swimming lessons. Participants
become familiar with the aquatic environment and learn elementary skills
such as blowing bubbles, submersion, maintaining assisted front and rear
float, front gliding, a combination of arm and leg movements, and jumping
into the water with support. This course focuses on building a foundation to
build on as they progress through the swim program.
Level 2 - Fundamental Aquatic Skills
For children who have already completed Level 1. This class will focus on
swimming skills. Participants must be able to enter the pool unassisted,
submerge, and retrieve an object from the bottom of the pool with their eyes
open, maintain front and rear float, recover to a standing position, glide on
their front and back, swim front and back crawl with arms and kicks, and exit
the pool unassisted.
Level 3 - Stroke Development
This class builds on the aquatic abilities, safety, and rescue skills taught in
Levels 1 and 2, and prepares students for advanced swim levels. Participants
must be able to jump into the water unassisted, submerge, and retrieve an
object from the bottom of the pool with their eyes open, float unassisted on
their front and back, swim front crawl with side breathing, and back crawl
unassisted. This class will introduce treading water, breaststroke, dolphin kicks,
jumping into deep water, and compact dives.
Level 4 - Stroke Improvement
This class is considered an advanced swim level and will take place in deep
water. Participants must be able to jump into deep water using a compact dive
or stride position, tread water, swim underwater, have efficiency in freestyle,
backstroke, open turns, and flip turns. This class will refine breaststroke and
butterfly. This class develops confidence and competency in aquatic abilities,
safety, and rescue skills.
