About this event
Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Sunday, November 3, 2024.
Level 5/6 - Stroke Refinement and FitnessBarracuda and Tiger Shark will now be a combined course that will still implement and focus on the core characteristics of each level while continuing to improve overall endurance and fitness.
This class is taught entirely in deep water ranging from 6'-13'. Participants must be able to efficiently complete 25-50 yards of both front crawl and elementary backstroke without stopping. Students will work on refining breaststroke, butterfly and sidestroke as well as learn to read a pace clock and using flip turns while swimming. New skills will include shallow angle dives and surface dives. Upon completion of this course participants will be ready for specialty courses such as Sharks Swim Team.
Swim assessments to determine the appropriate level for your child are available during our recreational swim hours. If you are new to our program, a swim assessment is strongly encouraged to ensure your child is placed in the right level.
Additionally, with the exception of Parent & Me classes, parents are not allowed in the water for any lesson and are encouraged to remain clear of the lesson area to ensure the quality of each individual lesson. Only those on the instructor’s roster will be permitted in the class and attending a different class time is not permitted. All participants must attend the class and class time in accordance with their original registration unless approved for a transfer to a different class/time.
Those interested in lap swimming during swim lessons must inquire with the front desk prior to entering the water to ensure adequate space and to pay for their swim. There is no recreational swimming during swim lesson hours.
