About the Program:
This class orients children to the aquatic environment and helps them gain foundational water skills in a supportive and engaging setting. Participants will practice entering the water using the ramp, steps, or side of the pool and exiting safely using the ladder, steps, or side. Swimmers will learn to blow bubbles through their mouth and nose, submerge their mouth, nose, and eyes, and open their eyes underwater to retrieve submerged objects.

Children will develop skills including front and back glides with recovery to a vertical position, back floats, rolling from front to back and back to front, and treading water using arm and hand actions. The class also introduces alternating and simultaneous arm and leg actions on both the front and back, along with combined arm and leg movements. Age-appropriate water safety topics are incorporated throughout the program.
