Description
The 5 week program is offered as 5 lessons over the course of six weeks to allow for one weather related make up day. In the event there is no inclement weather during the course of the program, six lessons will be offered.
This swimmer can do a front and back float unassisted. They will learn to jump from the deck and swim to the wall. Eventually this swimmer will learn to roll from their back to front while swimming. Level 2 focuses on fostering independence in the water, improving propulsion, and rolling back to front in the water while maintaining correct body position.
The following skills will be taught and must be achieved before passing: bobbing, independent survival float (front and back), independently rolling from front to back and back to front, front crawl, backstroke, treading water, underwater swimming, beginning breast stroke. Diving will also be introduced in Level 2 but will not be a required skill to pass. Skills learned in Level 1 will be improved on in Level 2.
