GROUP SWIMMING LESSON LEVEL DESCRIPTIONS & GENERAL INFORMATION Tadpole | Parent Assist | Ages 6-36 Months

Water orientation class for younger children. Parents (one adult per child) are required to be in the water with children. The goal of this class is to introduce water adjustment skills in a safe and friendly environment. Climbing in and out of the pool, floating on front and back, kicking, and arm movement. All swimmers in diapers must be in swim diapers.

Seahorse | Preschool | Ages 3-5 Years

Through games and play, the goal is to introduce preschool-aged kids to water and teach them how to safely navigate this exciting new environment. Students will work on submerging underwater, blowing bubbles with their mouth and nose, supported floating, and introducing leg movements.

Level 1 | Penguin | Ages 5-8 Years

A great place for school-aged kids who are new to lessons or are nervous/afraid around water. The primary goal is to develop comfort and confidence. Students review and master all Seahorse skills, work on floating independently on front and back, refine their kicking, and are introduced to crawl stroke arms.

Level 2 | Turtle | Ages 5-9 Years

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE:

The Spokane Transit Authority offers both fixed route and para-transit services to the public. For fixed route service, call 509.328.7433; para-transit service, call 509.328.1552.

STA will not wait for instructors or buildings to open. Our instructors arrive fifteen minutes prior to the start of the class. In order to prevent participants from being dropped off too early please give a “no earlier than drop” time of 15 minutes before the class starts. Do not use a “no later than” time as it causes problems of too early of an arrival. Care providers must accompany participants who cannot find the class location independently or wait appropriately for the instructor. Therapeutic Recreation works with STA and care providers to identify early and late arrivals and make changes in schedules as needed. *Another suggestion is to use subscription trips. After attending a class three weeks in a row the rider qualifies. With this ride you won’t need to call in each week- just call when need to cancel. Schedule rides early. If participants need additional supervision while waiting for transportation after program hours, a bill will be sent to cover staff expenses. Para-transit is not recommended for those activities involving a flexible return time - i.e. trips.

TRANSPORTATION/PARATRANSIT USERS

Participants will be notified if a class or program is canceled due to lack of enrollment and will be offered an alternate choice, full refund or credit on account. Participants who wish to cancel enrollment must notify Therapeutic Recreation at least fourteen days prior to the program date to be considered for a refund. Refund amount will be based on the number of students enrolled and any supply costs incurred on the participant’s behalf. Care providers may not substitute participants. Every participant must be preregistered. Requests for refunds must be made in writing and approved by Therapeutic Recreation supervisor.

Refunds will not be made after the first session or for missed sessions. Trip deposits are nonrefundable unless cancellation is made at least 30 days before trip departure date.
