The goal of Sea Turtles is to help swimmers achieve comfort in the water and gain familiarity with fundamental skills and achieve success without support.
This class will likely need to be repeated multiple times if your child has not attended prior swim lessons.
Focus: Elementary water skills, developing independence in shallow water, developing gross motor skills, increasing child's comfort in water, rhythmic breathing, and laying a foundation of strokes on the front and back for future levels.
Exit Skills: (Note: All skills must be performed independently in order to move up to the next level):
- 5 bobs
- Retrieve object in 3 ft. of water
- Front float for 5 sec. and recover

Limit of one class per person per session. If you sign up for a class that is too advanced, your child may not be able to participate in that class for their own safety.
Bring your own towels and swimsuit. Goggles are recommended but not required. We will provide any swim equipment necessary. We do not allow floatation devices for children.
