Infant and Preschool Sessions: 16 months to 4 years

• These lessons focus on the swim-float-swim technique. Where the swimmers learn to swim face down in the water, rotate onto their back to a floating position that enables them to rest and breathe, then return to a face-down swimming to get to safety.
• These are 2-week sessions with 10 lessons and each lesson is 15 minutes long. For best results, we recommend two back-to-back sessions.
• Classes are held from early May to early August, and run Monday – Friday between 8 -10 a.m. on 20-minute intervals.
• For ages 16 months to 3 years, children MUST wear a “double diaper,” a disposable swim diaper, AND a reusable swim diaper.
• For ages 3 to 3 ½ years, children may wear the approved reusable swim diaper without the disposable.
