For Children Who Have Mastered The Basic Swimming Skills
press play to learn more about our survival skool swim lessons program
Once children have completed our Basic Swim Skool or Toddler Skool, they are ready for Survival Skool. Our Survival Skool at PoolSkool USA is designed to teach more advanced survival skills. These classes are for children who already know the basics of swimming, but now need to learn how to get air, so they can be more mobile around the pool.
In the Survival Skool there are 3 parts with 8 classes in each part. In the first part, we begin teaching your child how to roll over on their back for air, and introduce the survival sequence. In part 2, we continue practicing survival swimming, but increase the distance and decrease the support. We want children to begin rolling over on their own. In Part 3, we put the icing on the cake with mastering survival swimming. The teacher will begin to remove themselves from the pool and the focus will be to have your child swim across the whole pool without the coaching of an instructor.
We highly recommend your child completes all 3 parts. Once your child graduates Survival Skool, you will have the peace of mind knowing they have the skills to survive a potential drowning situation and reach safety on their own.
