Introduction to gymnastics and movement.
"Stroke Mechanics: Children entering this level should be able to swim 25 yards of front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke. Students refine stroke technique on all major competitive strokes, learn about competitive swimming, and discover how to incorporate swimming into a healthy lifestyle. Ages 6-12 years."
"Water Acclimation: Children entering this level should be comfortable working with an instructor without a parent in the water. Students develop comfort with underwater exploration and learn to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water. Ages 6-12 years."
"Water Discovery: introduces infants and toddlers to the aquatic environment through exploration and encourages them to enjoy themselves while learning about the water. Ages 6 months to 3 years."
Continued instruction in gymnastics from Parent N Tot. Preschoolers between 3-4 years old work independently from parents to build balance, coordination, and body awareness while learning foundational gymnastics skills in a structured, teacher-led class.
"Water Movement: Children entering this level should be able to go underwater voluntarily. Students focus on body position and control, directional change, and forward movement in the water while continuing to practice how to safely exit if they would fall into a body of water. Ages 6-12 years."
