Water Exploration & Safety 8 Week Program: 6 months – 1 year 
 

This class is an introduction to water safety and basic water skills for both parent and child. It is not a swim lesson and parents should adjust their expectations accordingly. The Water Exploration and Safety class is meant to allow the child to explore the water in a supervised and fun environment with the guidance of the instructor and parent.

Maximum class size of 6 students.

*Classes require a minimum of 2-3 participants to run

Parent & Preschool: 2 years – 4 years 11 months
 

The objective of our Preschool + Parent swim class is to help students feel comfortable in the water while their parent at their side. Students will learn elementary water skills that they can build on as they progress through the various swim levels. We introduce the WaterSmart Rules.

Sophie the Safety Seal’s WaterSmart rules are enforced for increased water safety.

The Level 1 class builds on elementary water skills previously learned and teaches students the skills needed to complete a 25-yard swim for each of the following: elementary backstroke, front crawl, and backstroke. All elementary water skills are reinforced so that they become second nature to the students. All water safety rules are discussed as well.
