Rays (ages 3-5)

For children ready to work on their freestyle and stroke endurance learn breaststroke and rotary breathing fundamentals in this class.

Polliwog (ages 6 - 13)

Guppy (ages 6 - 13)

This class requires that the child must pass polliwog or be able to do the front and back float, as well as the front crawl. Students will review and improve rotary breathing and be introduced to rhythmic breathing and treading water, as well as learning the ability to transition from a front crawl to a back float.

Minnow (ages 6 - 13)

This class requires that the student must pass guppy or be able to do 25 yards of front crawl with rhythmic breathing. The emphasis of this class is to improve front and back crawl. Kids will also be introduced to the breaststroke and to diving and will work on technique and endurance through lap swimming.
