Youth Group Swim Lessons

Sessions held seasonally. Please register at the Sports Core Reception Desk. Key elements in providing your child the tools for success in our program include:

The ideal age to begin the Learn to Swim program is age 5. Beginning this fall, we will offer a "transition" class for children ages 3-5. This class helps children prepare for the group swim lessons per level structure. 

The Level structure is designed for students to advance per year (vs. per session) with continuous instruction. Our levels are not designed with pass/fail outcomes. It is not uncommon for students to stay at a particular level for up to a year or longer.

The prerequisite for each level is the successful demonstration of the skills from the preceding level, except for level I, which has no prerequisite. Each level of our swim program includes training in basic water safety and helping a swimmer in distress. Below is a brief description of each level and what is included. For more detailed information, please call Sports Core and ask about our Youth Group Swim Lessons.
