This transitional class is designed for babies who are ready for swim lessons without mommy or daddy, but aren’t quite ready for a 30-minute Preschool Class. Students will develop their listening skills, learn to follow directions and wait their turn, build trusting relationships with an adult coach, and begin building fundamental skills from our Preschool curriculum.
