Our Seals class is for our 4 & Up advanced Intermediate students. At this level, there is an emphasis and concentration on skill refinement and endurance. Understanding this, safety is still taught as instructors challenge students to hold their breath longer, swim further, kick harder, and have fun! In addition to our standard water safety and survival practice, students are introduced to the breaststroke, butterfly stroke, flip turns, standing dive, and pace and distance swimming. 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.
