Parent/Child

Ages: 6 months  - 3 years

This class introduces basic skills to parents and children. Parents learn how to safely work with their child in the water including how to appropriately support and hold their child in the water and how to prepare and encourage their child to participate fully and try the skills. Children receive an introduction to basic skills that lay the foundation for learning to swim. In addition parents are introduced to several water safety topics. *An adult must be present in the water with each child.

Preschool

Ages: 4 - 5 years

This class is designed for children who do not have previous experience in a structured class setting or being away from their parents/guardians in the water. Children will work on basic swimming skills to become comfortable in the water. Skills will be learned through play and incidental learning to encourage a fun and enjoyable experience in the water. Preschool 1 introduces basic aquatic skills. In addition children start developing positive attitudes and safe practices around the water in this class.

Learn to Swim

Level 1

Ages: 6 years +

This class is designed to orient participants to the aquatic environment and to help them gain basic aquatic skills. In addition participants start learning about how to be safe around water.

Level 2

Ages: 6 years +

This class is designed for children who have successfully completed Level 1: Introduction to Water Skills. Learn to Swim Level 2 builds on the basic aquatic skills and water safety skills and concepts learned in Level 1. Participants begin to perform skills at a slightly more advanced level and begin gaining rudimentary propulsive skills on both the front and the back. This level marks the beginning of independent aquatic locomotion skills.

Level 3

Ages: 6 years +

This class builds on the skills learned in Levels 1 and 2. Participants learn to swim the front crawl and elementary backstroke at rudimentary and proficient levels and are introduced to the scissor and dolphin kicks. Upon successful completion of Level 3 participants will have achieved basic water competency in a pool environment.

Level 4

Ages: 6 years +

This class is designed for children who have successfully completed Level 3. In Level 4 participants improve their aquatic skills and increase their endurance by swimming the strokes learned in Level 3 for greater distances and with more advanced proficiency. Participants add arm actions to the previously learned scissor kick and breaststroke kick to perform the rudimentary sidestroke and to learn the breaststroke. Participants also begin to learn the back crawl and butterfly as well as the basics of performing a simple open turn at a wall.

Level 5

Ages: 6 years +

This class is designed for children who have successfully completed Level 4. In Level 5 participants refine their performance of all six strokes (i.e. front crawl back crawl butterfly breaststroke elementary backstroke and sidestroke) and increase the distances that they swim. Participants also learn to perform flip turns on their front and back.

Level 6

Ages: 6 years +

The objective of this level is to refine strokes so participants swim with greater efficiency and effectiveness over longer distances. A great transition from Learn-to-Swim to competitive swimming this course is designed to refine participants strokes in order to increase ease efficiency power and smoothness over greater distances. 

Adult

Ages: 18 years +

This class is designed for adults with little to no experience in the water. Participants will learn the basic swimming techniques and have the opportunity to develop their own personal swimming goals. There will be an introduction to basic aquatic skills and swimming strokes including: the front crawl breaststroke and elementary backstroke.
