Level 1: This class is designed for beginner level swimmers, children who have had little or no swimming experience, or are a little apprehensive in the water. Unaccompanied by parents in the water, students will explore and focus on basic paddle stroke, voluntary water entry, kicking skills, floating, and submerge underneath the water.
Level 2: This class is designed for children to learn how to move in the water independently. Students will also begin to learn proper techniques for front and back swimming as well as floating.
