Swim Lessons

​This may be your little one’s exciting first dip into the pool and we aim to make it special for everyone involved! Parents bring their children (ages 6 months to 3 years) into the pool for a fun lesson with one of our wonderful instructors. We’ll sing songs, dance in the water and find comfort in the pool at your child’s pace.

Swim diapers are required.

​Beginner swimmers learn basic swimming skills in this fun, no pressure class. We’ll practice blowing bubbles, floating, and kicking.

​Swimmers learn to swim independently in front crawl with beginner rotary breathing, beginner back crawl and will be introduced to proper breast stroke arm motion.

Minimum Requirements: Swim 5-yards independently front crawl, float, blow bubbles.

​Swimmers work on improving front crawl and back crawl technique. Children will be introduced to kneeling dives and standing dives, breaststroke and dolphin kick.

​Minimum Requirements: Swim 10-yards with face in the water, stream line on back 5-10 yards.

​Swimmers work on refining their strokes, in addition to learning important water and boating safety. We will achieve basic requirements making them eligible for most sailing camps, including swimming 100-yards freestyle, treading for 2 minutes, floating in the prone position for 2 minutes, and basic boating safety.  

​Minimum Requirements: Swim 25-yards freestyle, 25-yards backstroke, beginner breaststroke and dolphin kick.

​Swimmers will continue to refine their technique working towards four legal strokes and all starts and turns. Goals for Advanced Swim Techniques will be to complete 100 Individual Medley and 200 Freestyle, the entrance requirements for USA C.
