The goal of Sea Turtles is to help swimmers achieve comfort in the water and gain familiarity with fundamental skills and achieve success without support. This class will likely need to be repeated multiple times if your child has not attended prior swim lessons.

Focus: floating and gliding on front and back, developing simultaneous and alternating arm and leg actions, beginning fundamentals of side breathing, and laying a foundation for future strokes, all without instructor support

Exit Skills:
  • 5 bobs
  • Retrieve object in 3 ft. of water
  • Front float for 5 sec. and recover
  • Back float for 5 sec. and recover
  • Roll from front float to back float
  • Push off wall and kick in missile 5 yds.
