Swim Lessons

WATERBABIES AND WATERTOTS

Our WaterBabies and WaterTots programs build basic water safety skills for both parents and children, helping infants and young children ages 6 months to 4 years old become comfortable in the water so they are willing and ready to learn to swim. These basic skills include adjusting to the water environment, showing comfort while maintaining a front or back position, bubble blowing, and gentle submersions.

Accompanied by a parent, infants and toddlers learn to be comfortable in the water and develop swim readiness skills through fun and confidence building experiences, while parents learn about water safety, drowning prevention, and the importance of supervision.

Our Waterbabies program is designed for infants aged 6 months to 2 years old, or for those who are having a first-time experience of the pool atmosphere. Our WaterTots program is designed for toddlers aged 2 to 4 years old, or for those who have experience around the pool and are able to perform some swimming skills with little assistance.

PRESCHOOL SWIM LESSONS

learning the SWIM BASICS

Students learn personal water safety and achieve basic swimming competency by learning two benchmark skills:

  • Swim, float, swim—sequencing front glide, roll, back float, roll, front glide, and exit
  • Jump, push, turn, grab
 
Our 30-minute Preschool Swim Basics program is split into 3  stages:
 
  • Preschool 1: Students develop comfort with underwater exploration and learn to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water in stage 1. This stage lays the foundation that allows for a student’s future progress in swimming.
  • Preschool 2: In stage 2, students focus on body position and control, directional change, and forward movement in the water while also continuing to practice how to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water.
  • Preschool 3: In stage 3, students learn how to swim to safety from a longer distance than in previous stages in the event of falling into a body of water. This stage also introduces rhythmic breathing and integrated arm and leg action.

SCHOOL AGE LESSONS

SWIM STROKES: School Age Stage 4, 5 & 6

Having mastered the fundamentals, students learn additional water safety skills and build stroke technique, developing skills that prevent chronic disease, increase social-emotional and cognitive well-being, and foster a lifetime of physical activity.

Our 45-minute Swim Strokes program is split into 3 separate stages:

  • School Age 4– Students in stage 4 develop stroke technique in front crawl and back crawl and learn the breaststroke kick and butterfly kick. Water safety is reinforced through treading water and elementary backstroke.
  • School Age 5– Students in stage 5 work on stroke technique and learn all major competitive strokes. The emphasis on water safety continues through treading water and sidestroke.
  • School Age 6– In stage 6, students refine stroke technique on all major competitive strokes, learn about competitive swimming, and discover how to incorporate swimming into a healthy lifestyle.

Financial AsSistance Programs

Individuals will not be turned away from participating in programs, activities, and/or membership due to their inability to pay. The Y maintains a generous financial assistance program for youth, adults, and families who demonstrate financial need. Funding for this program is provided by fundraising events at the Dow Bay Area Family YMCA and community-wide donors.
