Swim Lessons

Starfish/Duck

Sea Turtle/Sea Otter

This is an introductory class for babies and toddlers, and their parent or caregiver. To enter this level, children must be able to hold their head up. The goal of this class is to experience buoyancy, movement, entries and holds in the water. Children and parents will build confidence while enjoying the water through games, songs and active participation.

Sea Turtle is a transitional level for preschoolers aged 24 – 36 months and either their parents or caregivers. Parents can gradually transfer their preschooler into the care of an experienced instructor where they will develop skills in swimming and water safety. Floats and recovery to a standing position are introduced and practiced. In Sea Otter, front glides are performed with assistance.

4 months – 24 months

Salamander/Sunfish 3-5 years

In Salamander, unassisted floats and glides are taught. Rollover glides and front swims are introduced through games and songs. The fun includes jumping into chest deep water. Sunfish pushes the distance of all glides, and floats in deep water are practiced. Learning also focuses on good judgment in, on or around the water.

24

2-5 years

Crocodile/Whale 3-5 years

Preschoolers start independent glides and kicking in deep water. Endurance is built though increasing distances for front and back swims as well as maintaining a surface support for 10 seconds. In Whale, focus is on progressions to front crawl. Front glides and front swim are performed for 10m. The basics of diving are introduced.

Swim Lessons New! - 45 Minute Swim Kids Lessons All Swim Kids level swim lesson are now 45 minutes! During your child’s 45 minute swim lesson time they will work on their Red Cross level, safety items, endurance and they will explore different water activities that will help increase their comfort level in the water. We are also helping kids reach the National Canadian Standard for being active for 60 minutes a day.

Level 1/2

This is an entry level for children to gain confidence moving through water. Rhythmic breathing and head submersion is encouraged and practiced through activities. Floats with recovery, and glides with and without flutter kick are taught. In level 2, the distance of front glides are increased to 10m. Rollover glides and front swim is practiced.

Level 3/4

This level focuses on forming safe habits when swimming in deep water. Sitting dives and treading water is introduced. The combination of front glides and side glides is taught as a progression to front crawl. In level 4, endurance is built with a 25m distance swim. Back glides now include a shoulder roll in preparation for back crawl.

7 classes

Level 5/6

In Level 5 back glides with shoulder rolls are now developed into back crawl. Whip kick on the back and sculling is introduced in this level. Endurance is built through a 50m distance swim. Level 6 focuses on rhythmic breathing for front crawl encouraging a fluent stroke. Whip kick is now elementary backstroke, combining sculling and whip kick into one swim. The distance swim is 75m.

Level 7/8/9/10

In these levels, front crawl, back crawl, elementary backstroke, breast stroke and sidestroke are introduced and practiced. Endurance is built though 150m – 500m distances swims and different treading water techniques such as eggbeater.
