Children and parents interact with each other while learning safe swimming practices. They will also learn the foundations of independent swimming.

Learn to Swim
Wellness Pool/Main Pool
Children are introduced to skills and strokes appropriate to their ability level. Four and five year olds learn to be independent in the water (floating, kicking, breathing). Six and older learn new and refine basic strokes (freestyle, backstroke, elementary backstroke, breathing techniques, and safety skills).

Competitive Conditioning
Main Pool
Workouts help swimmers maintain competitive skills. All participants should be knowledgeable about competitive practicing. All ages welcome.

Stroke Clinic

Swimmers will work on improving strokes, turns, and starts. Drills and instruction will enhance swimming techniques. This is a good class for swimmers who want to improve their competitive strokes or for young people wanting to learn more about the sport of competitive swimming.
