Upon completion of this level students will show comfort in the water, follow pool rules, get their face wet while blowing bubbles and be able to do front/back floats with assistance. Eel Advanced beginner level reinforcing Pike skills. Eels are taught to float independently, flutter kick and paddle stroke. Upon completion of this level students will be able to swim one width of the small pool independently and front/back float with assistance. Ray Students build endurance and learn to tread water as well as improve previous skills. Rays work on rhythmic breathing, backstroke, breaststroke and elementary backstroke. Upon completion of this level, students will be able to swim one length of the small pool with front crawl and backstroke. Starfish At this level children gain endurance and build on Ray skills. They perform front and back crawl and are introduced to more treading water and safety skills. Starfish work length wise in the small pool. Private Swim Lessons One on One private lessons are offered for children and adults who desire special attention and instruction. Depending on the instructors availability, we try to accommodate lessons to individuals schedules.
