SwimAmerica
offers a variety of classes to meet your needs. We teach
infants through adults. Choices include standard group lessons, private
lessons, stroke school, special three-year-old classes and infant/baby
classes. All of our instructors are highly trained. It’s important
for your child to feel comfortable during swim lessons. If your child
has a favorite instructor, let us know and we will do our best to
place your child with him or her. Lessons are 30 minutes.
Class

Standard
Semi-Private Lessons
Our most popular lessons are standard semi-private lessons. Children
are placed in groups of 3 to 4 students based on their skill level.
As children progress through the levels, they will have the opportunity
to swim with children at a similar level each time. We assess classes
early on and move children to a different station if their current
station
isn’t meeting their needs. Standard semi-private lessons with
only one participant are 20 minutes.
Private
Lessons
Private lessons are a great solution for a child who has extreme
fear of the water. Our instructors will take it slow, helping your
child
adjust to the water at his or her own pace. Once your child is
more comfortable
with swim lessons, you may choose to move him or her to a standard
group class.
Stroke
School
Stroke school is designed for the swimmer who is looking for a
longer, more challenging lesson. While our standard group lesson
is half
an hour, stroke school is 45 minutes long. Stroke school is offered
for
stations
8 through 10. The cost is the same as group lessons.
Three-Year-Old
Because three-year-olds require more attention than older children,
we put them in classes of 2 children per instructor. Three-year-olds
can
learn to propel themselves independently in the water, learn
safety skills, as well as learn basic stroke skills in freestyle,
backstroke,
breaststroke
and butterfly. Once children are ready to move beyond the three-year-old
class, they will be placed in a standard semi-private lesson.
Infant (5 - 36 months)
This program is designed to increase comfort in the water and
develop floating skills. Each infant must be accompanied
by a parent or
caregiver. Lessons will help the very young child to become
acclimated to the
water and learn to enjoy the sensations associated with movement
in the water.
Infants will be introduced the skills to float on their back,
and to breathe and kick to the wall should they accidentally
fall into
the
water. In addition, our instructors will advise you on how
to properly work
with your child in the water.
