This class is aimed at young children who are yet to comfortably submerge under the water. Basic body position, floating and kicking is taught in this group.
Children in this class are fully confident and comfortable with submerging in the water, they are able to float on their front and back, with minimal assistance. In this class, children will further develop their kick and also learn basic water safety.
Children will begin learning arm circles on their front in coordination with kicking. They will also learn to kick on their back and will further develop their water safety skills.
At this level, your child is able to consistently do all of the above. From there, they begin to learn breathing position in freestyle as well as backstroke arm circles. The fundamentals of butterfly and breaststroke kick are also taught in this level.
