Prerequisites: Pass Level 2 or can independently tread water, float on back for 15 seconds and be able to swim at least 10 yards front crawl with rhythmic breathing and backstroke.
Level 3 Swimmers will build upon earlier levels. Swimmers are introduced to all six strokes and kicks. Independent swimmers will spend the majority of their lesson time at this level. Emphasis is placed on stroke development and teaches front, back, and side body positions as fluid kicks are introduced. Stroke mechanics are broken down to teach each part of a proficient stroke, starting with the kick. As lessons continue, swimmers will build endurance and work towards good form and efficiency. Swimmers will also begin to learn headfirst entries.
