We have scheduled three sessions of group lessons again this summer with each running for two-weeks. The session will run from Monday through Thursday (rain or holiday make-ups are on Fridays). However, we will not hold lessons on Monday, July 4th and class will be held that Friday, July 8th. Class start times are 9:30 am and 10:15 am. and will last 30 minutes. Group sizes will range from three to eight, with one or two qualified instructors depending on the class size.
All children will be grouped according to their swimming
ability into the following categories: pre-beginner, beginner, advanced
beginner, intermediate and advanced.
Pre-beginner: An introduction to swimming to foster
confidence in the water. Children will acquire floating, kicking,
gliding and back floating skills. NO
CHILD UNDER THE AGE OF 3.
Beginner: The child will gain confidence in the water.
Floating (front and back), freestyle, and elementary backstroke will be
emphasized.
Advanced Beginner: In this section the child will be
given the opportunity to take and pass the "patch test". Emphasis will
be freestyle with rotary breathing, backstroke and treading water.
Intermediate: This section will only be taught in session
one and possibly two. All the previous strokes will be refined, and the
child will be introduced to breaststroke, butterfly and flip turns.
