Level 1: Introduction to Aquatic Skills

A beginner-friendly course designed to help adults overcome fear, build water confidence, and master essential swim foundations in a safe, supportive environment.

INTRODUCTION TO AQUATIC SKILLS

This beginner-friendly course is designed for adults with little to no swimming experience. Using the American Red Cross curriculum, Level 1 focuses on building comfort and confidence in the water through foundational skills such as breath control, floating, basic movement, and water safety.


No prior experience is required.


Small groups. Personalized coaching.

We believe swim skills are essential. A limited number of sliding-scale spots ($90-$110) are available each session to help keep this program accessible. If cost is a barrier, we encourage you to reach out.
