We teach children as young as 5 1/2 months using a progressive approach – “Learning through play”, where we utilize lots of colorful toys and games to create a child-friendly atmosphere in the pool. We will require a parent or guardian to join their child in the pool, and serve as “co-teachers”.
Each child will be accompanied by a parent/ guardian in the pool (1 adult:1 baby). Class duration = 30 minutes
Faculty Information:
Through years of teaching, we’ve learned that the most effective TI instruction is more art than science. An expert TI teacher produces not just a competent student, but a passionate one, who is confident of continuous improvement and appreciates the purposeful and mindful TI approach. They do this by going far beyond mechanical mastery of the drills. They communicate effectively in the pool, from the deck, and in all encounters with students, teaching just as much about process as about the nuances of drills and skills.
Other Activities:
