Beginner Swim School Program

This program is designed for swimmers aged six years and above. Swim classes are 45 minutes and take place once a week. Learning and development are tailored to the swimmer's needs, with a focus on general aquatic skill development and pool comfort. Swimmers are expected to be able to swim independently for approximately 10 meters; life jackets are not permitted. Examples of swimmer skills include kicking, arm movement, stroke technique, and swimming in deep water. Swimmers will focus on developing their freestyle and backstroke strokes, and begin to learn strategies for breaststroke and butterfly strokes.

Swimmers will have a basic ability to perform freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly swimming strokes. Swimmers will focus on refining their strokes and developing endurance.

Intro to Competitive Program

Our Intro to Competitive (ITC) program is designed for swimmers aged 8 and over who have completed our swim school program or have been selected by the Head Coach.  They will learn to swim more challenging sets, proper dives and turns, learn to read the clock and use pace times.  This is the pathway to our competitive stream with NORAC.
