Session 1 Group Swim Lessons Levels 1-5

The Group Swim Lessons at the Student Development Complex pool provide instruction in swimming and water safety through the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim program.

Level 1 introduces basic water skills and safe water practices to new swimmers aged 6 years and older. Level 2 builds fundamental aquatic skills including floating and submerging. Level 3 develops stroke techniques and water competency. Level 4 focuses on improving swimming strokes and endurance, while Level 5 refines stroke coordination and mastery.

Each level requires completion of prerequisite skills or the previous level, with detailed learning objectives such as water entry techniques, breath control, stroke development, and safety skills. The pool environment includes space for personal belongings, recommends goggles, and requires showering before entering the water. Class sizes are limited to ensure quality instruction.
