LITTLE FLIPPERS (Adult Participation, Ages 6 – 36 months)

With parent, grandparent, or primary caretaker, infants are welcome to experience the water in our LITTLE FLIPPERS program. These classes are intended for infants and young toddlers (ages 6 months – 36 months) to build swimming readiness. Using songs, games and props these classes are all about having fun in the water. Adults are guided to help children learn elementary skills and aid in their smooth adjustment to new adults and the new environment. We offer three different Little Flippers groupings based on both age and these classes may be taught as a combined level.

 

 

 

SWIMSTARS TRANSITIONAL (Independent Class, 2 – 3 years old)

Swimstars Transitional is designed for 2 year olds ready to transition away from a parent and participate in an independent class. At this stage, more advanced skills are taught and an emphasis is put on expanding breath control, floating and independence. Along with more advanced techniques comes even more emphasis on safety skills. Often, the transition to a class without a parent may be challenging, so for that reason, one adult can come dressed to swim. It may not always be necessary for the adult to enter the water, however our deck supervisor may ask you to walk the student to class and/or observe from the pool deck to briefly help with the transition.

 

 

 

SWIMSTARS PREP (Independent Class, 2 – 3 years old)

Our Swimstars Prep classes are designed for children to have marked improvements in breath control, floating on the front and back and independent swimming! In order to participate, your child must be two years old and able to attend class without a parent or caregiver. We strongly recommend that they have participated in at least one session of Swim Stars Transitional.
