See below for the schedule of classes and level descrptions.
Learn-to-Swim, Level 1 is a beginner level class where swimmers may use 2-4 floatation bubbles. A swim evaluation is not required. The goal is to learn basic personal water safety, information, and skills to help participants feel comfortable in the water and to safely enjoy the water. This class is for those who have very little or no experience with swim instruction.
The class focuses on elementary aquatics skills, develops positive attitudes, good swimming habits, and safe practices in and around the water including safely entering/exiting the water, blowing bubbles, bobbing, opening eyes underwater to retrieve submerged objects, front and back gliding, alternating arm and leg action, combined stroke movement, and treading water. Most skills are performed with support.
Learn-to-Swim, Level 2 is a beginner-intermediate level class where swimmers may use 1-3 floatation bubbles. The goal is to help swimmers who have achieved comfort in the water gain familiarity with fundamental skills and achieve success without support. This class focuses on teaching swimmers to float and glide on their front and back, develop simultaneous and alternating arm and leg actions, and lay a foundation for future strokes, all without support from the swim instructor.
An evaluation is required. Please email [email protected] to schedule for an evaluation.
The goal of LTS3 is to build on previously learned skills and provide additional guided practice. LTS3 is for swimmers who are able to swim with combined stroke on front and back (without assistance). LTS3 is a 45 minute class that focuses on making swim- mers comfortable and safe in deep water, teaches front crawl and elementary backstroke (25 yards), builds on the fundamentals of treading water, introduces scissors and dolphin kicks as well as the rules of headfirst entries (seated entry dives).
An evaluation is required. Please email [email protected] to schedule for an evaluation.
LTS4 is an intermediate-advanced level that uses no bubbles. A swim evaluation is required. In this 45 minute class, the goal of LTS4 is to develop participants’ confidence in the strokes learned thus far and to improve other aquatic skills. LTS4 focuses on increasing endurance by swimming familiar strokes (front crawl, elementary backstroke), and adding sidestroke, back crawl, breaststroke, butterfly, and basics of turning at the wall.
