DESCRIPTION OF CLASSES:
Safety Lessons
It is required by Red Cross to incorporate safety lessons into every swim lesson. These lessons are appropriate
to the level and maturity of the swimmers.
Parent/Tot
Tots are just getting acquainted with the water. We work on water orientation; getting head and face wet and
holding on to the wall. We work on breath control (blowing bubbles, bobs), back and front floating with
assistance, introduction to crawl arms and kicking, and jumping into the water with help. We try to make it fun
and enjoyable for the kids.
Red Cross Level 1
Beginners are capable of holding onto and moving along the wall without assistance. They are learning to put
their face into the water, blow bubbles, and do 10 bobs. They will be introduced to breathing on the side, back
and front float with assistance, pushing off the wall, reach and pull arms, kicking with a kick board, and jumping
into the water to the instructor.
Red Cross Level 2
We work on breath control; breathing on the side, holding breath, and 10 bobs without assistance. They will
learn how to use the kick board without assistance. They will learn to float and glide on their back and front
without assistance, crawl arms with kick and breathing properly, sculling, and jumping into shallow water without
assistance. We will work on progressing forward in the water without assistance.
Red Cross Level 3
We work on endurance and distance in this class. We will work on bobbing deep up to 10 times, rhythmic
breathing to the side, using kick boards across the width of the pool on their front and back, combined arms and
legs on their front and back crawl, floating without assistance, deep water orientation, and knee diving. In order
to move into the next class the child needs to swim 1 pool width of crawl stroke with the proper breathing
technique.
Red Cross Level 4
This course is held at the deep end of the pool. Swimmers are required to swim the length of the deep end
without assistance as well as the width of the pool. There will be a review and refinement of the crawl stroke and
backstroke. We will work on survival float, underwater swimming, elementary backstroke, survival stoke, PFD
swimming, treading water and changing positions, and diving. .
Red Cross Level 5
This course requires swimmers to swim the entire length of the pool multiple times. We will review and refine
crawl stroke, back stroke, elementary backstroke. Breast stroke, side stroke and butterfly will be introduced, as
well as open, front, and side turns. They will learn to do survival float and stroke and treading water for 1
minute. We will work on standing dives and some basic safety issues.
Red Cross Level 6
We will review and refine backstroke, crawl, breaststroke, side stroke, elementary backstroke, butterfly and all
turns. Swimmers will learn the stride jump and a long shallow dive. We will focus on endurance through lap
swimming and treading water.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Guard Start:
You must be at least 13 years old and a fairly strong swimmer (swim at least 100 yards without stopping). The
primary purpose of this course is to help the participants learn to be safe when they are in, on, or around the
water. Lifesaving techniques similar to those used by lifeguards will be introduced. The American Red Cross
book, “Community Safety” will be used. A Red Cross card will be issued upon passing the final test. The chapters
cover staying safe while having fun, preparing for water activities, water hazards, aquatic recreation, taking action
in an emergency and providing care until help arrives. Some junior lifesaving techniques will also be
incorporated into the class.
Cost: $100 per swimmer
Minimum of 4 swimmers per session.
