- 3-5.5 years old
This is a great class for 3-5.5 years old to get acclimated in the water… AND we also teach them to swim on their front and back. In these 5 classes, 25 minutes each, many kids float for a few feet, some float a few yards, and all gain lots of confidence. Some of these classes are offered as separate genders, while some are mixed.
- Level 1
- Level 2
For kids who can float & swim on front and back for ten seconds. We’ll learn to come up to breathe and swim further, learn 2 different back strokes and refine the front stroke. Most clients swim more than 1/3 the width of the pool when completing Level 2. This level is often combined with Level 3 as the skills are similar.
- Level 3
For kids who can float & swim, front and back, for approximately ¾ across the width of the pool, has already learnt one or 2 different backstrokes (monkey-airplane-soldier) and is getting ready to pass the deep-water test. We’ll learn how to come up for air, learn rhythmic breathing well, learn to tread water, and attempt to pass the deep-water test. Note: This is a harder level to pass.
- Level 4/5
For deep water swimmers; we’ll refine each stroke and add new strokes and dives, and work on endurance (building up strength and swimming for longer amounts of time.
