Youth Aquatics Classes

Youth Aquatics Classes offers Competitive Stroke Instruction, Swim Team Prep, Youth Swim Conditioning, Junior Water Polo, and Synchronized Swim. Competitive Stroke Instruction teaches stroke technique in freestyle, breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly, along with competitive starts, turns, and finishes, and goes beyond basic swimming as preparation for more advanced swim classes and teams. Synchronized Swim uses sculling, breaststroke, front and back crawl, elementary backstroke, and sidestroke to perform synchronized choreography to music.

• Ages: 6–18 years old

Competitive Stroke Instruction participants should be comfortable in deep water and able to swim 50 yards comfortably. Swim Team Prep provides stroke refinement, teaches how to swim sets and read a pace clock, and includes a coached workout, and it is equivalent to Level 4 skills and higher for participants who can swim 50 yards comfortably. Youth Swim Conditioning focuses on swim sets, interval training, and stroke refinement, and requires participants to be able to swim 100 yards comfortably and demonstrate the four competitive strokes, with Swim Team Prep recommended before taking Youth Swim Conditioning. Signing up for Swim Team Prep in conjunction with Youth Swim Conditioning provides 50% off the same session sign-up. Junior Water Polo introduces the sport of water polo in a non-competitive, recreational format, focuses on fun and dynamic aspects of the game, is taught in shallow water, and requires participants to have basic swimming abilities. Synchronized Swim participants must be able to swim 25 yards, float on their back, and tread water for 3 minutes. The program leadership team includes Aquatics Coordinators Kelsey Golden and Isaac Behar, and Aquatics Supervisor Samuel Barrera.
