Our combined Intro & Level 1 swim class is perfect for older beginners ready to build confidence and learn essential water skills. This class is designed for children new to the pool or those who may feel hesitant around water. Through engaging activities and supportive instruction, swimmers will become comfortable in the water and develop a strong foundation for future swimming success.
The class begins by focusing on water safety and basic skills, such as entering and exiting the pool safely, mastering breath-holding, and becoming comfortable with underwater submersion. As swimmers progress, they will work on floating independently, gliding through the water, and learning basic swimming techniques that emphasize control and confidence.
Class goals include:
1. Enter and exit the pool safely
2. Demonstrate proper breath-holding techniques
3. Submerge underwater 10 times during class
4. Retrieve a submerged object using goggles
5. Perform an assisted front float and back float
6. Practice assisted kicking on the front
7. Jump into the pool with assistance and swim to safety
8. Perform independent front glides
9. Practice assisted back glides
10. Roll from front to back and from back to front
This combined class is the ideal starting point for children ready to overcome their fear of water, learn fundamental swimming skills, and gain the independence needed to progress to the next level. Dive in and begin a journey towards becoming a confident and capable swimmer!
