Programs

Our instructors follow a plan to introduce new swimming and water safety skills that are developmentally appropriate for young children. Preschool Aquatics puts the “fun” in fundamentals. Each class is loaded with enjoyable, engaging and challenging activities that motivate children to want to perform and learn to swim.
In Beginner Level 1, your child is introduced to basic skills. These skills lay the foundation for future skill development of swimming strokes. Certain milestones are necessary for successful completion of Level 1, including—
•Entering the water independently using ladder, steps or side and travel at least 5 yards.
•Submerging mouth and blowing bubbles for at least 3 seconds.
•Exiting the water safely.
•Gliding on front for at least 2 body lengths.
•Rolling to back and floating for 3 seconds.
•Recovering to a vertical position.
It is quite common for children to participate in several sessions of Level 1before they are able to successfully demonstrate all the skills. That’s okay!
Courses are designed to teach children the fundamentals of swimming in a fun and patient environment. A progressive level format is used to build on skills learned in the previous class level. Parents should enroll children in the level for which they have adequate skills.
