This class is an introduction to water safety and basic water skills for both parent and child. It is not a swim lesson but rather a water exploration and safety class meant to allow the child to explore the water in a supervised and fun environment with guidance from the instructor and parent This class does not meet on June 13 and 18 due to a swim club meet.

The purpose of this class is to help students aged 3-5 feel comfortable in the water without the presence of a parent. Students continue to learn elementary water skills and safety tips that will stay with them throughout all swim lesson levels. Sophie the Safety Seal's Water Smart rules are enforced for increased water safety.

This beginner class builds on elementary water skills previously learned in level 1, and teaches students the skills needed to complete a 25 yard swim for each of the following: elementary back stroke, front crawl, and back stroke. All elementary water skills are reinforced so that they become second nature to the students. All water safety rules are discussed as well.
