CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:

Pike A
This level is for the beginner. Children at this level may be apprehensive and cling to the teacher. They may not be able to move freely through the water without the aid of an instructor. The main emphasis in Pike A is to help the child develop safe pool behavior, adjust to the water, and develop independent movement in the water. |

Pike B
This level is designed for new swimmers, teaching basic paddle stroke and kicking skills, floating, pool safety, proper use of PFDs, and comfort with holding the face in the water while blowing bubbles and swimming. |

This is an intermediate level for the swimmer who can move throughout the water independently with or without the aid of a bubble. Children should be able to swim 10 yards. On the front, back and side with a flotation aid and 5 ft. without. Children are taught to float and perform the progressive paddle stroke. They also learn basic use of PFDs. Children must swim across the pool, 25 yards without assistance in order to move to next swim level. |
