Swimming Classes / Skill Levels
Water Babies
3 Months Up to 24 Months
Introduction and acclimation to the water and the swimming lesson environment. The goal is to achieve a relaxed demeanor for both children and their caregivers.
Babies will be introduced to developing breath control and coordination for important swimming positions and safety techniques, while eventually preparing them to transition into our preschool level classes, without caregiver participation.

Preschool Level
This level is the first level independent of their caregivers with the teacher. Skills include breath control, supported floating and how to enter and exit the pool safely.
Beginner level swimmers under the age of 5 years, are a good fit for this level
Level 1
This level is geared to provide a solid base of swimming experience for the first- time or beginner level swimmer for ages 5 years and older.
Breath control, buoyancy, supported kicking & paddling, submerging, and the fundamentals of proper body positions are the key skills for the beginner swimmer.
Level IA (Level I Advanced)
Students will continue to develop basic swimming skills to become stronger and more efficient in the water and learn breath exchange for unassisted swimming and floating.
Prone gliding, paddling, kicking, and finding their float positions are the focus. Elementary backstroke is introduced.
Level IIB (Level II Beginner)
This is the formative level from the buoyancy skills to beginning to learn stroke technique. Swimmers will begin swimming longer distances to develop strength and endurance using back floats for rest. Elementary backstroke is refined.
Kicking on back in proper body alignment is developed. Backstroke and treading water are introduced in this level.

Students should be able to swim independently under control and switch to elementary backstroke for the length of the pool without assistance. Backstroke is refined and long axis swimming skills are introduced.
Students will begin to learn freestyle with and without assistance. Treading water is developed for endurance.
Level IIA (Level II Advanced)
This class builds on the foundation of long axis skills by building endurance in freestyle and backstroke. Swimmers also develop proper body mechanics and buoyancy positioning for breaststroke.
Level III
Swimmers will become more proficient in freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke, while being introduced to the core fundamentals of butterfly.
Advanced coordination drills are introduced for fluid mechanics.
Power Swim
Geared for swimmers who may not necessarily gravitate toward swim team but still want to enjoy the benefits of swimming and water sports.
This program for ages 7-14 teaches proper stroke techniques, endurance training, and fun in the water.
