Duck

This level is for children under the age of 3 who are attending independent lessons for the first time. The main goal of this level is to make children more comfortable in the water. Your child will be encouraged to: get their face wet, go under the water, and float on their front and back with lots of help from their instructor. 

Here are a few of the key skills you will see your child practicing:

• Getting comfortable in the water
• Floating with instructor assistance on front and back
• Submersions – going under the water
• Introduction of roll-overs from front to back
• Self Rescue Techniques – entering and exiting the water as well as returning to a point of safety
