Sharks is the final level for children's swim lessons, which refines existing skills and teaches safety and independence in deep water. (SEE DOLPHINS EXIT SKILLS BEFORE ENROLLING IN THIS CLASS) In Sharks, children are learning how to use their existing swim skills in deep water, building the endurance necessary to swim laps, and learning advanced swimming techniques.
Swimmers MUST be able to swim independently for 20 yards with combined arm and leg action, demonstrate rhythmic breathing, and be able to tread water in the deep end for 30 seconds in order to take this class.
Focus: Refining stroke techniques, learning advanced swim techniques such as flip turns and dives, learning strokes with fine motor skills, and building endurance.
Exit Skills:
- Independently dive in headfirst
Limit of one class, per person, per Registration period. 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 and will be removed.
