Swim Kids 2


Swim Kids 2 is the level where children learn all of the different components that will make up Front Crawl. Children learn a series of new skills that challenge the strength of their kicking by adding in arm movement, coordinated breathing, and rolling from their front onto their back.

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

  • Side Glides: children kick on their back with one arm up.
    This teaches them the breathing component of Front Crawl
  • Rocket-ship Rollovers: this fun-named skill teaches your child
    how to transfer their weight from front to back with fast kicks and
    the use of their arms
  • “4 arms”: teaches your child how to rotate and push their arms through
    the water, while maintaining a consistent kick for speed and support
  • “Side Glide 4 arms”: A version of basic front crawl where your child is
    putting all of the skills they have learned so far together into one stroke. 
  • Self Rescue Techniques - disorienting entries into deep water and
    returning to a point of safety
