For Children Ages 3 & Up Who Are Beginners
press play to learn more about our basic skool swim lessons program
The Basic Swim Skool at PoolSkool USA is specifically designed for children ages 3 and older, who are complete beginners. Meaning they cannot currently swim on their own without a floatation device.
In the Basic Swim Skool we have a focused curriculum, in which there are 3 parts with 8 classes in each part. In the first part, your child will learn to swim to the wall from a distance of 10 feet away. They will also learn how to get back to the side and exit the pool if they were to fall in. In part 2, we will continue to practice their swimming and teach them how to float on their back as well as on their stomach independently. Lastly in Part 3, we work on confidence and independence in the water. This reinforces the skills they have learned and helps ensure they retain them from summer to summer.
We highly recommend that your child completes all 3 parts so they can master their basic swim skills and feel confident enough to swim with you at home and not just in swim lessons.
