Parent Tot: Developmentally appropriate class that teaches beginning basics, fun games and songs to make children more comfortable in the water. One adult must accompany each child in the water. Properly fitted swim diapers are required.

Starfish: Swimmers learn to do front and back floats on their own. Other skills include jumping in, basic arm movements and kicking.
