Lifestyle Swim School April 23-November  2012 Schedule

Infants/Toddler and Tyke Schedule and Preschool and Elementary

Parent in the Water/Group Classes

 Florida Atlantic University Aquatic Center and the A.D. Henderson University School (on FAU campus)

Here we create a nurturing, playful environment where the journey is the destination.

If you are in a big hurry this is NOT the swim school for you.

 

Parents may select from either of the two  formats listed below for their child's classes.  The first format, the Optimal Track, follows the natural learning progression of this early age group (consistent exposure, practice, a little bit on a lot of days) and meets 4 times per week for 4 weeks.  The second format, the Extended Track, meets 2 times per week for 8 weeks and requires additional practice at home to provide adequate exposure and practice necessary for learning. Both tracks offer 15-16 classes  (several 15 due to holidays) within a session.  It is recommended that you try to attend at least 1/2 of the classes you enrolled for in your registered course. To be fair to everyone and to keep our prices affordable, missed classes can not be carried over to the next session. Classes are subject to minimum and maximum enrollments. We plan for 12 students per class. Due to lack of enrollment some classes may be combined.

Track 1 Natural Learning Trac (slow and steady as she goes)

Our recommended format allows for maximum water and lesson exposure. Four week sessions meet four days per week, Monday thru Thursday. The more times per week your young swimmer attends class, the more dramatic his or her progress will ultimately be! All young children, but especially fearful children, those not liking water on their face, those being introduced to water for the first time, or those who have had a previous bad lesson or water experience need consistency and repetition as well as regular exposure to the pool and teachers.  We strongly recommend reading our book Learn to Swim and viewing our video/DVD Diaper Dolphins Volume I prior to and during Water Adjustment and Basic Skills and Learn to Swim and Diaper Dolphins Volume II prior to and during Safety Techniques I and II.

$250/offered up to 4 x per week /for 4 weeks* M-T-W-Th

Track II Extended Learning Track

The Extended Learning Track is an option available to accommodate work and life schedules that preclude our recommended Optimal summer format. Please note that in especially the Water Adjustment and Basic Skills class, parents must exercise an extra dose of patience when only attending class twice a week. Major breakthroughs may not occur until between the 16th and 48th lesson, therefore, remember not to push or judge your child. Flow with your child and enjoy the lessons knowing that he or she will make their breakthrough when they are ready. Reinforcing at home, on non-class days, in a fun, positive manner can also enhance the optimal learning growth of your child. The more times per week your young swimmer attends class, the more dramatic his or her progress will ultimately be! All young children, but especially fearful children, those not liking water on their face, those being introduced to water for the first time and , or those who have had a previous bad lesson or water experience need consistency and repetition as well as regular exposure to the pool and teachers. We strongly recommend reading our book, Learn to Swim and viewing our video/DVD Diaper Dolphins Volume I prior to and during Water Adjustment and Basic Skills and Learn to Swim and Diaper Dolphins Volume II prior to and during Safety Techniques I, II, Advanced Safety Techniques and Water Tykes.
