Parents actively participate in every lesson by learning fundamental skills through songs, games, and activities.

Preschool Lessons (Ages 3–5)

Preschool White 

The perfect introduction to swim lessons for young children who may be new or unsure in the water. This level focuses on building comfort, trust, and water familiarity through fun, engaging activities. With close instructor support, swimmers are introduced to basic skills like blowing bubbles, assisted floating, and simple movement. The goal is to create a positive first experience while developing essential water safety awareness.

Preschool Blue 

Designed for children who are becoming more comfortable in the water, this level encourages growing independence. Swimmers begin practicing skills with less assistance, including kicking, floating, and moving short distances on their own. Instructors continue to provide support while helping children build confidence and develop the ability to navigate the water more independently.

Preschool Red 

For confident preschool swimmers who are comfortable in the water and ready for the next step. This level focuses on strengthening independent movement, combining skills, and introducing early swim patterns. Swimmers begin practicing front and back glides, controlled breathing, and basic coordination, preparing them for transition into structured stroke development.

Junior Lessons (Ages 6+)

Junior White 

A welcoming starting point for older children who are new to swimming or still building comfort in the water. This level focuses on water safety, floating, kicking, and basic movement with instructor guidance. Swimmers develop confidence at their own pace while learning foundational skills that support safe and effective swimming.

Junior Blue

This level introduces more coordinated movements, including front and back glides, kicking with purpose, and beginning side breathing. Swimmers work on consistency, control, and confidence while moving through the water with less assistance.
