This beginning level for children teaches them to be comfortable and safe in the water. This class will introduce exercises in the water: arm movement, body position, leg movement, floating and blowing bubbles, connected with freestyle and backstroke. This level is recommended for children who have never taken lessons, preferably children between 3 and 5 years old but all children are welcomed.

At this level, arm position, leg exercises, breathing, turns, tread water, and diving will be practiced. This group’s focus is for children that already know basic skills of freestyle and backstroke or for children that passed the Sea Turtles level.

Learn to Swim
Swim Lessons are a critical resource given that drowning is the number one cause of accidental death for children under the age of four. Fortunately, research shows that a toddler who participates in swim lessons reduces this risk by 88%. Children of any age can quickly benefit from learning the skills to keep themselves safe in and around water. At High Sierra Pools, we are dedicated to preventing drowning by teaching children and their families to be safer. Our goal is that every student feels confident, in and out of the pool, with memories to last a lifetime.
Safer Facilities
According to the CDC, there is no evidence that COVID-19 can spread to people through chlorinated water. High Sierra Pools can allow purpose-driven swimming to take place by following strict safety protocols in and around the pool, maintaining proper water sanitation levels and, performing frequent cleaning and sanitization, and conducting regular health checks of staff and participants.
