Description This activity is closed to further registration. In this
class, swimmers ages 3 to 5 will focus on body position and control,
directional change, and forward movement in the water while also
continuing to practice how to safely exit if they fall into a body of
water. Swimmers must be able to demonstrate all stage one skills
before attending this class: go underwater and comfortably open their
eyes without goggles; float on front and back with minimal assistance;
jump into the pool, submerge, and return to the wall with assistance.

own. Swimmers will practice and develop the following skills: submerge
to look at an object on the bottom of the pool; front and back glide
to the wall for five feet; front and back float for ten seconds; roll
from back to front and front to back; jump, push, turn, grab; swim,
float, swim five yards; tread water near the wall for ten seconds;
