Low Ratio Swimming Lessons
SUMMER 2024 – Registration Now Open!
A low ratio class size allows the aquatic instructor the opportunity to get to know the small number of swimmers on an individual level and enables swimming lesson to be perfectly customized to the swimmers' skill sets, comfort, styles of learning and rates of progression. The instructor can observe and quickly adjust lesson plans to help to students learn more efficiently by receiving more one-on-one attention and feedback on the spot while feeling supported and engaged in the lesson. Low ratio swimmers experience less distractions while still benefiting from socializing and learning with other kids the same age. Our low ratio classes create a feeling of connection and community at the pool by encouraging swimmers to get to know each other and build friendships and allow the aquatic instructors to build strong relationships with their students.
Preschool Program (Ages 3 - 7)
Give your child a head start on learning to swim. The Lifesaving Society Preschool program develops an appreciation and healthy respect for the water before these kids get in too deep. In our basic aquatic progressions we work to ensure 3 to 7-year olds become comfortable in the water and have fun acquiring and developing a foundation of water skills. We incorporate Lifesaving Society Water Smart® education in all Preschool levels.

Swimmer 5
These swimmers will master shallow dives, cannonball entries, eggbeater kicks, and in-water backward somersaults. They'll refine their front and back crawl over 50 m swims of each, and breaststroke over 25 m. Then they'll pick up the pace in 25 m sprints and two interval training bouts: 4 x 50 m front or back crawl; and 4 x 15 m breaststroke.

Swimmer 6
These advanced swimmers will rise to the challenge of sophisticated aquatic skills including stride entries, compact jumps and lifesaving kicks like eggbeater and scissor kick. They'll develop strength and power in head-up breaststroke sprints over 25 m. They'll easily swim lengths of front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke, and they'll complain about the 300 m workout.
