PRESCHOOL 1 SWIMMING (3–4 YEARS)

Description

Pre-School 1 welcomes young children to their first structured water
experience without parent participation. Our certified instructors specialize in
creating a calm, emotionally secure environment where preschoolers can
thrive. The class blends imaginative play with fundamental skill development,

helping children build trust in the water and their instructor. Through songs,
games, and positive reinforcement, we focus on developing water comfort,
basic body positions, and early breathe control, ensuring a positive and
encouraging start to their swimming journey.

Focus / Goals:
1. Building foundational comfort and confidence in the water
2. Developing assisted movement and basic body control
3. Introducing core swimming skills through playful, structured activities

Skills Introduced:
· Gentle submersion with support
· Assisted front and back floats
· Bubble blowing for breath control
· Kickboard basics: kicking and arm strokes with guidance
· Safe entry and exit from the water with instructor assistance
