Adult Swim Lesson Levels
Conquer your Fear: Water Exploration
Did you know that 46 percent of adults are afraid of deep water in pools, and 64 percent are afraid of deep open water? Learn to overcome the physical and psychological barriers to swimming, and get used to the relaxing and healthful atmosphere of a swimming pool! Participants will learn how to float, relax in the water, and learn about different aspects of pool safety and etiquette. This is a great introduction to swimming lessons for the true beginner.
Beginner
These lessons are for adults wanting to be comfortable and active in the water. Participants will learn how to float, submerge completely, propel themselves through the water on both the front and the back, and the basic front and back crawl strokes. The goal is to be able to swim a specified length (25 yards) and feel comfortable in deep water. The class is designed to prepare participants not only to experience swimming, but to participate in various recreational water activities.
Intermediate
This class is for the well-adjusted swimmer. Participants should be able to swim a length of the pool using any style and tread or float in deep water for one minute. The general goals include increased proficiency in the basic strokes, development of more advanced strokes and turns, greater understanding of safety, and the ability to use water as a medium for recreation and fitness.
