Swim Classes & Tuition

Floating in the water is an essential skill for survival and fun for everyone

Starter Swimmers: Introduction
& Water Acclimation

This no-obligation single class is designed as an opportunity for parents or caregivers and their children to visit Life's Little Swimmers Infant Aquatics and get to know the instructor, in order to understand our teaching methods, regardless of their child's age. Your instructor will guide you and your child in the water to learn breath control and comfortability being submerged. If you aren't sure if survival swim is the right fit for your family, this class is highly recommended. An extended stay and observation of other lessons is also encouraged to give you a realistic view of the program in action!

Survival Swim to Float: (under 12 months)

Non-walking infants 6 months+ (able to sit up independently) will be taught to rotate from any position in the water to a back float. The baby will learn to rest and breathe on their back until help arrives. After accomplishing these skills in their swim diapers, infants will then practice their skills in summer clothing and then progress onto winter clothing. This is critical to survival swimming because most children who find themselves in the water alone are fully clothed.

Survival Swim Float Swim: 1 - 6 years

Walking toddlers and young children will learn the Swim-Float-Swim sequence. Children will learn to jump or "fall" in and swim a short distance with their faces fully submerged, then to roll onto their backs and float and rest whenever they need to breathe, and finally to flip off their back onto their tummies to continue to swim safely to the side and crawl out. After accomplishing these skills in their swim clothing, infants will then practice their skills in fall clothing and then progress onto winter clothing. This is critical to survival swimming because most children who find themselves in the water alone are fully clothed.

Survival Swimming with Float: 7 years and up

For older children who have not yet learned to swim, the same basic principles apply to learn the Swim-Float-Swim sequence. They will learn to jump or "fall" in and swim a short distance with their faces fully submerged, then to roll onto their backs and float and rest whenever they need to breathe. Because of their ability to listen to verbal instruction and increased attention span and stamina, longer lesson times may be introduced, as well as less frequent lesson days and shorter program duration if needed to accommodate scheduling.

Continuing Student Progressive Lessons: Beginner Strokes

These lessons are designed as a continuation of our SFS programs with added introductory methods in Olympic stroke techniques, diving, turns, air exchange and stamina, etc. If your child has become fully skilled in our Infant Aquatics SFS program within the past 12 months, this course is highly recommended, and there is no registration fee. Your instructor may need to perform a quick in-water swim assessment to see if they qualify, depending on their age and skill development. This course is suggested for children ages 6-12 years old.
