SWIM LESSON EVALUATION (LEVEL PLACEMENT TESTING):                                                               

All swimmers enrolling in swim lessons are welcome to attend the Swim Lesson Evaluation on Saturday, June 1st at 10:00am. The focus of this time is to have fun and help orient the swimmers to the environment, the other children, and the swim instructors who will be instructing them. This is also an opportunity for the swim instructors to assess your child’s ability for placement into the most appropriate level.

LEVELS:

  • Level I (Water Exploration) – Teaches children with no previous swimming experience water adjustment and basic supported swimming skills
  • Level II (Primary Skills) – Emphasizes underwater exploration, unsupported locomotion, front and back combined stroke and jumping into the water without help.
  • Level III (Stroke Readiness) – Teaches front crawl, diving, elementary backstroke and back crawl.
  • Level IV (Stroke Development) Teaches side-stroke and breast-stroke, stressing form, coordination and endurance.
  • Level V and VI (Further Stroke Development) – Teaches butterfly kick, underwater swimming skills and mastery of stroke skills.
