Group Requirements and Descriptions
Minimum age 5yrs.

Rose 1:  Age 5y. Swimmers must be able to swim 25y without stopping.  

Swimmers learn water safety skills in and out of the pool.  The focus is to become comfortable in the water.  Skills such as kicking all 4 strokes, side breathing, learning body and head position and balance in the water are some of what’s taught.  To move to Rose 2, swimmers need to be able to do all skills consistently well and independently of the instructor.

The primary focus will be placed on teaching all 4 strokes through the use of drills.  Swimmers will practice the kicks for all strokes.  Progress in this group will be measured on refining technique in breaststroke and butterfly kick and freestyle and backstrokes. Swimmers learn to swim 25 yards Butterfly and Breaststroke with the understanding of how the arms and legs move for each of those strokes. The primary focus will be placed on teaching skills and drills for all strokes.
