My daughter, Kimberly has taken multiple preschool classes at the pool with various instructors, and we also swim with her lots too, so there was a long period where we were at the pool 3 times a week!

Kody has always been a constant and familiar face around the pool.

She had a brief bout of private lessons with him when she was 3 yrs old. To change thing up a bit, we registered her for the Junior Jumpsters diving class last spring … and I cannot tell you how fantastic this class is. Kody is an amazing teacher … a very skilled diver … and is fantastic with the kids. He instills confidence and is friendly and supportive of the various personalities and skill levels within the class. We’re nearing the end of this session of the Junior Jumpsters … and will be signing up for the next session. It didn’t occur to me in the beginning that there are many cool and exciting jumps / dives / backflips that kids can learn at this age! It only took a handful of lessons before Kimberly was eagerly jumping off the diving board. And I was totally surprised when Kody introduced backflips during one lesson, and before I knew it, she was confidently backflipping within minutes?!?

He clearly loves what he does … and he’s very good at it. Thank you for offering such an amazing and fun diving class with Kody! We are super thankful for his work with the kids.

We are looking forward to many more diving / swimming lessons with him.

And I’m spreading the word about the Junior Jumpsters class to my friends.

- Thanks, Raenelle

Skating Programs 2 Years & Up Preschool – Learn to Skate

SKATING LESSONS Described as an early specialization sport, learning to skate is the first step in developing the next hockey player or figure skater. Our experienced instructors develop engaging lesson plans that help your child develop the necessary skills of skating.

These skills will improve your child’s physical literacy and help to develop other sport specific and fundamental movement skills.

The Greater Victoria Active Communities Learn to Skate Program is a regional initiative of seven municipalities of Greater Victoria.

This program is streamlined and designed so that any pre-school or school age child can have their accomplishments transferred from one center to another. This is a badge incentive program that emphasizes the importance of comprehensive feedback through a report card. Our Skate Team Leader is on the ice during all lesson times and can answer questions regarding lessons and your child’s skating progress.

Preschool 1 Preschool 2 Preschool 3

Helmets are required for all lesson participants. Participants are encouraged to wear gloves mittens, warm jackets and warm flexible clothing.

TESTIMONIAL

As home schoolers, we feel so welcomed by the entire Juan de Fuca community! We have been participating in various programs and courses offered through the centre for over four years. In particular, we have greatly appreciated our experiences within the swim program. My children have enjoyed the challenges of "leveling up", as they call going up a level in swim class, and the lifeguards and instructors always make a point of really getting to know all of the kids that really enjoy spending their time there. The dedicated and helpful staff are really what make this community so special. We enjoy it so much that we have been designating one day per week as our "JDF Pool and Park Play day" for three years now! It's truly a wonderful and relaxing place that has so much to offer... come see for yourselves!
