PRESCHOOL SWIM LESSONS

AGES 3-5 YEARS

We help children build elementary swimming skills while teaching them safety along the way. Children are placed with our trained instructors based on their skill levels.

PIKE

Perfect for beginners!Children adjust to the water and develop independent movement through the use of an Instructional Flotation Device (float belt, bar bell or kick board) and/or assistance from the instructor at all times.We work on kicking skills, floating, pool safety and basic strokes.

EEL

Children are more confident in the water, but still considered beginners.  Swimmers may still require the use of an Instructional Flotation Device, but are able to swim longer distances.  Children are taught to float, kick and perform progressive arm movements.

RAY

STARFISH

Our most advanced preschool class reviews and improves stroke skills on front, back and side while building endurance while our instructors teach them to tread water.
