Preschool and Youth Lessons at AGB Pool
Beginner and intermediate lessons for preschool and youth age groups will take place every Monday and Wednesday from February 27 through March 15.
All lessons are thirty minutes long. Preschool classes are offered at 5 p.m. and 6:20 p.m. Youth classes are offered at 5:40 p.m. and 7 p.m.
Swimmers should register for lessons according to their age and skill level:
- Beginner Preschool (ages 3-5) and Youth (ages 5-12) classes are designed for children who are new to the aquatic environment and uncomfortable in the water. Students will learn elementary skills, which will be built upon as they progress through the course. If beginner students do not enter the water and/or participate in the session by the second class, they will be removed from the roster and a full refund will be provided.
- Intermediate Preschool (ages 3-5) and Youth (ages 5-12) classes are designed for children who can enter and exit the pool independently, submerge their face in water, and travel at least five yards unassisted. If intermediate students do not meet this criteria on the first day, the participant will be removed from the roster and a full refund will be provided.
Beginner lessons are capped at 6 swimmers per class and intermediate lessons at 8 swimmers per class. All classes cost $48 (tax included) for 6 lessons.
