Level 1 (6M-1Y) – Children and parents are introduced to the pool through gently structured instruction. Swim diapers must be worn by children not yet potty trained.
Level 2 (1-3Y) – Students learn body positions in the water, how to float and basic safety skills.
Level 1: Water Adjustment: Students with little or no experience work on swimming basics and becoming comfortable in water.
Level 2: Swimming Basics: Students continue developing basic skills and learn body position in the water. Improvements to front/back glide, floating, and arm and leg movements help participants learn freestyle and backstroke.
Level 3: Swimming Stamina: Building on front/back gliding and floating, students build endurance for freestyle and backstroke.
Level 4: Stroke Fundamentals: While building more endurance, students learn the importance of rhythmic breathing. The basics of breaststroke and butterly will be introduced. Swimmers must swim one pool length in freestyle and backstroke to complete this level.
Level 5: Stroke Advancement: Participants combine arm and leg movements to enhance knowledge of breaststroke and butterfly. To complete this level, they must swim two pool lengths using freestyle with rhythmic breathing, backstroke and be comfortable in breaststroke.
Level 6: Stroke Refinement: This stage refines students’ swim strokes for advanced swimming.
Must have passed level 6 of Parker’s Swim School
Conditioning: Practice swim team drills with an experienced coach! Students will perform drills and workouts similar to what is expected on a competitive team, further refining strokes and endurance.
Level 1 – This class focuses on floating and general arm/leg movements for swimming freestyle and backstroke. To complete the level, students must swim 25 yards of freestyle and backstroke.
Level 2 – Students continue to develop skills while introducing breaststroke and butterfly. By session end, swimmers must complete 50 yards of freestyle and backstroke with assistance.
