Our Learn to Swim Program provides a maximum learning environment for all participants.
    • Swim Lesson Level Descriptions
      Level 1 - Water Exploration Children may not be excited about getting in the water, some maybe fearful others will separate easily from parents. Can follow directions but often need understanding and encouragement.
       
      Level 2 - Primary Skills Children are beyond “water adjustment”, they are comfortable in the water and may be swimming 4 or 5 feet without floatation. Will learn to reach & pull, put their face in the water, float and propel themselves through the water on their backs and stomachs.
       
      Level 3 – Stroke Readiness Children swim and float and are comfortable on top of and under water, they are ready to learn proper breathing technique (rotary breathing) and learn basic strokes such as front crawl, back crawl and begin elementary back stroke.
       
      Level 4 - Stroke Development Children are prepared to refine the basic skills they were taught in Level 3 and are introduced to more sophisticated skills such as breast stroke and standing dives.

      Level 5 - Stroke Refinement Children are ready to build up endurance and refine strokes and skills taught in level 4. They will learn skills such as Butterfly, flip-turns, and competitive starts.
