BEGINNER COURSE DESCRIPTION
Your swim lessons are once a week for one hour. Evening or day classes available. When you begin your swim lessons you are in water so shallow (4 feet) you can stand up if you so choose. We provide and fit you with a FREE safety vest. Additionally, we provide a FREE mask, snorkel, and fins. Using a fully inflated safety vest means you cannot sink, like training wheels on a bicycle. Next, with the confidence that you cannot sink. We will teach you to use your arms and legs for propulsion. We want you to focus on your arm and leg movements prior to mastering breathing. As you progress at your own pace, you will soon be able to start releasing some of the air from the safety vest. In time, at your own pace, you will begin swimming independently of the equipment.
PLEASE NOTE Only scuba or snorkeling equipment purchased from THE SCUBA/SWIM SCHOOL is allowed
in our Shreveport/Bossier pools
