​
Private, Semi-private and Small Group options available, however scheduling priority will be given to Small Groups.
PRESCHOOL LEVELS: ages 5 and under
PRESCHOOL 1
These preschoolers will have fun learning to get in and out of the water. We’ll help them jump into chest deep water. They’ll float and glide on their front and back, and learn to get their face wet and blow bubbles underwater.
PRESCHOOL 2
These preschoolers learn to jump into chest deep water by themselves. They’ll submerge and exhale underwater. While using an aid, they’ll glide on their front and back.
PRESCHOOL 3
These youngsters will try both jumping and a sideways entry into deep water while using an aid. They’ll recover objects from the bottom in waist-deep water. They’ll work on kicking and gliding through the water on their front and back.
PRESCHOOL 4
Advanced preschoolers will learn to do solo jumps into deeper water and get out by themselves. They’ll do sideways entries and open their eyes underwater. They’ll master a short (5 m) swim on their front using an aid and gliding and kicking on their side.
PRESCHOOL 5
These youngsters get more adventuresome with a forward roll entry and treading water for 10 sec. They’ll work on front and back crawl swims for 5 m, interval training and get a giggle out of whip kick.
SWIMMER LEVELS: ages 5 and up
SWIMMER 1
These beginners will become comfortable jumping into water with and without an aid. They’ll learn to open their eyes, exhale and hold their breath underwater. They’ll work on floats, glides and kicking through the water on their front and back.
SWIMMER 2
These advanced beginners will jump into deeper water, and learn to be comfortable falling sideways into the water. They’ll be able to support themselves at the surface without an aid, learn whip kick, swim 10 m on their front and back, and be introduced to flutter kick interval training (4 x 5 m).
SWIMMER 3
These junior swimmers will dive, do in-water front somersaults, and handstands. They’ll work on 15 m of front crawl, back crawl and 10 m of whip kick. Flutter kick interval training increases to 4 x 15 m.
SWIMMER 4
These intermediate swimmers will swim 5 m underwater and lengths of front, back crawl, whip kick, and breaststroke arms with breathing. Their new bag of tricks includes the completion of the Canadian Swim to Survive® Standard. They’ll cap it all off with front crawl sprints over 25 m and 4 x 25 m front or back crawl interval training.
SWIMMER 5
These swimmers will master shallow dives, cannonball entries, eggbeater kicks, and in-water backward somersaults. They’ll refine their front and back crawl over 50 m swims of each, and breaststroke over 25 m. Then they’ll pick up the pace in 25 m sprints and two interval training bouts: 4 x 50 m front or back crawl; and 4 x 15 m breaststroke.
SWIMMER 6
These advanced swimmers will rise to the challenge of sophisticated aquatic skills including stride entries, compact jumps and lifesaving kicks like eggbeater and scissor kick. They’ll develop strength and power in head-up breaststroke sprints over 25 m. They’ll easily swim lengths of front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke, and they’ll complain about the 300 m workout.
