In the Sea Lions level, children are grouped by age categories and placed in skill-appropriate levels, and the student-to-instructor ratio is [3:1].
Level 1
This class teaches children basic water safety and introduces them to the basics of front crawl with rollovers. Kicking with the kickboard and backfloating are also taught, as well as elementary backstroke.
Level 2
Children in this level continue to practice basic front crawl with rollovers, swimming longer distances eventually without the instructor's assistance. Other skills acquired in this class are unassisted kicking on the back and streamlining.
Level 3
Children are introduced to side breathing at this level and are taught the complete front crawl. Proper backstroke is also introduced, and both strokes are practiced for better endurance. With good stamina, kids will learn how to tread water.
Level 4
Students continue to improve their front crawl and backstroke while swimming longer distances. At this level, we introduce breaststroke and various endurance-building techniques.
Level 5
This level is designed for students capable of swimming correct front crawl, backstroke, and breaststroke comfortably and ready for butterfly. The students swim continuous laps and practice flip turns to prepare them for a more competitive environment.
