Swimming Lesson Descriptions
Parent-Child 1: This class uses a mixture of group songs and one-on-one instructor attention to make young swimmers more comfortable in the water. This level includes plenty of scooping, kicking, blowing bubbles, back floating, and gliding for all participants. It is intended for children aged 6 months to 2 years old.
NEW Parent-Child 2: This class is designed as a bridge class between the parent child 1 class and group swimming lessons. Children will do activities with their parents one on one along with the instructor and other students. Plenty of scooping, kicking, blowing bubbles, back floating and gliding for all participants. Children 2-3 yrs old.
Level 1: The first level of swimming lessons teaches swimmers scooping, kicking, blowing bubbles, back floats, and underwater bobs. By the end of level 1, children should be able to swim at least 5 feet independently, be able to dunk their heads underwater, and start to float on their backs independently.
Level 2: Swimmers are introduced to more technique, such as reaching their arms over their heads during front crawl, and using straight legs to kick while swimming. All swimming in this level is done independently, and by the end swimmers should have fairly good front crawl form, be able to move their arms and legs on their backs, and be able to swim at least 15-20 feet independently.
