Class Descriptions This class is designed for parents who want to get in the water with their babies! We will teach you the best way to teach your infant to swim and how to be safe around the water. We recommend children are between 6 months and 2 years of age. Tot 1-4 These classes are designed to get younger children (ages 3 to 5) comfortable in the water and swimming! Most skills are taught with the support of the instructor until the child becomes comfortable in the water alone. Skills range from submerging faces and floating (tot 1) to learning basic strokes (tot 2 – 4). Beginner For children over the age of 5 who still may be uncomfortable in the water or just learning to swim. They will learn to hold their breath, float, glide, and work on basic movement through the water. Most skills are done with assistance from the instructor. Students should be able to hold onto the wall for the duration of the lesson (30 minutes). Beginner 2 By this time, swimmers should be comfortable unsupported in the water on both their stomach and back. This class is where primary swimming skills will be taught. Some classes may be held in deep water. Advanced Beginner Students should be able to swim 5 yards, unassisted, on both their stomach and back and should be comfortable in deep water. In this class, swimmers will begin to learn new strokes, be expected to swim farther, and learn to dive (kneeling) from the edge of the pool. Intermediate Children should be able to swim across the deep end on their stomach and back, do a kneeling dive, and retrieve objects unassisted from the bottom of the pool. In the intermediate class, students will learn to tread water, scull, dive standing, and the scissor kick.
