REGISTRATION OPENS APRIL 1st

Level I: Water Exploration: Children can begin this level at the age of 4, if they are comfortable in the water. This level teaches elementary skills, such as floating with support, putting their face in the water, kicking and an introduction to arm action for the front crawl. A parent or guardian should be prepared to go in the water at the instructor’s request.

Level II: Primary Skills: This level adds to the skills from Level I, but focuses on independent floating and front and back swimming. Students must be comfortable putting their face in the water on request in order to be in this level.

Level III: Stroke Development
Build on skills from Level 2 and develop strokes through additional guided practice in deeper water.

Level IV: Stroke Improvement
Improve their stroke and gain additional aquatic skills.


Please consider each group carefully before choosing the appropriate level for your swimmer. It is better for a child to feel confident and successful in their lessons rather than be afraid and not ready for the next level.

*Please note that there is a processing fee when paying with a credit card.
