15 Mondays (except Sep 21, Dec 21, + Dec 28) Our first drop-off class for beginner swimmers takes place in the training pool without a parent/caregiver in the water. This class will introduce your child to water safety, breath control, back floating, independent water entry and exit, as well as following directions in a group setting among peers. Your little dolphin will learn to feel safe and confident in the water on their own.
