Level

Skills to Master

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 1

This is the entry level for kids aged 6 years and up with little to no swimming experience. This level provides an orientation to the water and the pool. It introduces floats and glides, basic kicking and builds to a 5-metre swim with face in. Note, older children with no swimming experience may prefer private lessons until they are able to join group classes within a common age group.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 2

A second orientation level helping children build their skills for front and back swims. Swimmers are introduced to deep water activities and proper use of a Personal Flotation Device (PFD). Endurance is built on basic flutter kicking, roll over glides and a 10-metre swim.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 3

This level provides an orientation to deep water, an introduction to front crawl, and a foundation for making wise choices on where and when to swim. Diving is introduced and children will work on various surface support techniques, side glides and 15-metre swim.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 4

The front crawl, back glide and shoulder roll for back crawl are further developed in this level. Swimmers work on kneeling dives, surface support and developing a greater sense of self-safety. Endurance is developed through a front/side combo drill and a 25-metre swim.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 5

Back crawl is introduced, along with sculling skills and whip kick on the back. Children try stride dives and receive an introduction to safe boating skills. Endurance is developed through the dolphin kick and a 50-metre swim. Front crawl breathing continues to be refined.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 6

Front and back crawl continue to be refined as the elementary backstroke is newly introduced. Children are also introduced to safety on ice, elementary rescue of others with throwing assists, treading water and the front dive. Endurance is built through a 75-metre swim, and increased distances for all strokes.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 7

Continue building skills and endurance for front crawl, back crawl and elementary back stroke. It also introduces whip kick on your front and kids learn about airway and breathing obstructions. Endurance is built through timed treading water, and a 150-metre swim.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 8

Introduction to breast stroke, foot first surface dives and rescue entries. Kids learn about the dangers of open water, hypothermia and perform rescue breathing on manikins for adult and child rescues. Endurance is built on the dolphin kick and a 300-metre swim, and increased distances for all strokes.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 9

Front crawl, back crawl, elementary backstroke and breaststroke continue to be refined. In this level children are encouraged to try combining different strokes and kicks for fitness. They also work on head-first shallow dives, standing dives and learn about wise choices, peer influences and self-rescue from ice. Endurance is built through a 400-metre swim.

SWIM KIDS LEVEL 10

Further refinement of strokes, with an introduction to butterfly and scissor kick as a warm-up/cool down stroke for fitness. Children learn about sun safety, rescue of others from the ice and head-first and feet-first shallow dives. Endurance is built using dolphin kick and butterfly drills and a 500-metre swim. This level concludes the Swim Kids program.
