Penguins Class

Our Penguins class consists of our youngest advanced Intermediate students at 3-5 years old. At this level, there is an emphasis and concentration on skill refinement. In addition to our standard water safety and survival practice, students are introduced to the breaststroke, butterfly stroke, flip turns, and pace and distance swimming. Understanding this, safety is still taught as instructors challenge students to hold their breath longer, swim further, kick harder, and have fun! This is the first class to introduce swimmers to deep end practices. Student’s will be swimming full length laps to increase mental/physical strength and endurance. At this age, terminology is expected to be learned and used. Students will learn how to set and obtain short and long term goals, patience, perseverance, confidence, and listening skills. Our goal is a safe, fun, nurturing environment where little ones can develop sound, positive feelings about themselves and learning.

We use an incremental progression-based curriculum. This allows our students to be comfortably and safely eased into advanced intermediate swimming strokes, techniques, and terminology through skills. Skills are activities designed to help students gradually become more comfortable in the water while learning how to swim at a higher level. This level works to develop a foundation for all 4 competitive strokes, rhythmic breathing, lap swimming, and diving.
