Aquatics Class descriptions:
Infant Parent Aquatics Program: 12 - 36 months (30 min)
This class helps infants and toddlers become comfortable in and
around the water with a parent or guardian. Infants should be able
to sit on their own before taking this class. The class is not
designed to teach children to become good swimmers or survive in the
water on their own. This program gives information and techniques
to help orient children to the water and to supervise water activities
in a safe manner. Class requires the participation of a parent or adult
guardian in the water with the child.
Level 1- Water Exploration (30 min)
This course marks the formal beginning of the Learn to Swim
Program. Children will learn to kick on front and back with
support. They will also learn to be comfortable putting their face
in the water and blowing bubbles. Water safety rules and the
proper way to enter and exit the pool will also be taught. Upon
completion children should have a basic understanding of the rules of
the pool and be able to submerge themselves in the water.
Level 2- Primary Skills (30 min)
Children will learn a supine float unassisted, as well as flutter kick
on front and back. The basics of front crawl, back
crawl and rhythmic breathing will also be covered. In
addition, children will retrieve objects underwater and become oriented
to the deep water. This level marks the beginning of
true locomotion skills.
Level 3 & 4 - Stroke development / Stroke
Improvement
With a freestyle base, learn to maximize efficiency by
keeping head still and rotating body. Learn the "frog-kick" and
breaststroke swimming, with an introduction to the Butterfly.
Students will increase their endurance and improve their skills by
swimming front crawl and back crawl for greater distances.
FUN AND GAMES

such as Water Polo, relays, basketball, volleyball, Capture the Shark,
kayaking and many other fun water activities over the winter months.
Adult Swim Lesson (30 min) This course is
designed to teach adults basic swimming and water safety skills in
addition to increasing personal comfort in and around the water.
