Preschool Lessons
(3 - 5 years)
This program offers children their first experience in the pool without parental assistance. Children are taught the basic skills that are building blocks of swimming. Class participants are divided into three skill levels and progress as they accomplish their skills. Students will enroll in specific levels:
Pike (beginner)
A beginning class for children who have never been in the water or are fearful of the water. Students will use an IFD and have assistance from the instructor at all times. Students will work on water adjustment and basic swimming skills that include kicking, floating, and submersion.
Eels (intermediate)
Students are more confident but still considered a beginner swimmer. Students will still have assistance from an IFD but should be able to swim five feet without help from an instructor. Students will work on jumping in, floating, front crawl, back crawl, and breathing.
Rays / Starfish (intermediate/advanced)
This intermediate/ advance preschool class is for students who are comfortable in the water and require little or no assistance from an IFD. Students will begin to refine front and back crawl and will also be introduced to sidestroke, surface glides, and rhythmic breathing. Students should be able to swim 15 feet with no assistance. |
