Swim School Swim School Levels Our Family Wellness Swim School takes pride in our exciting water-safe program. Our philosophy is that each child progresses at their own pace. Through positive reinforcement, practice and patience, students learn water-safe swimming skills while having fun. This aquatic facility runs swimming lessons for children starting at the age of six months all through adulthood. Classes are once a week for 30 minutes in our various pools to encourage year-round lessons. Families that want to swim more than once a week are encouraged to do so. Classes are structured by age and ability to accommodate varying skill levels within each age group. Our student to teacher ratios are 4:1 except for our Parent/Baby and Parent/ Child classes which are 6:1. Our goal is to teach your child in a fun, safe environment that builds confidence, self-esteem and a feeling of accomplishment.
Parent/Baby
Transitional Parent/Child
Babies ages 6-18 months and the parent will enjoy the class together. This class is an excellent bonding opportunity between parent and baby. This class teaches the parent how to properly hold their baby while working on floating, submerging, hand/eye coordination and muscle strengthening through games and songs.
Transitional PC is a class for those two year olds who have already taken Parent/Child and need to be pushed on their swim skills and listening skills but are not ready to be on their own in a Guppy class yet. The goals of this class are to eventually get the parent out of the water and for the class to run like a normal Guppy class. However, these little guys might not be ready to swim without a parent yet and, for safety reasons, might not be ready to wait their turn. Therefore these 2 year olds need a parent in the water with them as well. These children should be very comfortable in the water doing various swim skills and be ready to work on swimming independently. This class must be recommended for your child from your Parent/Child instructor.
Parent/Child Babies ages 19-35 months and the parent will enjoy the class together as well. This class teaches the parent how to work with their child on relaxed floating, gaining breath control for submerging, independent climbing out of pool and muscle strengthening. This class will also include games and songs.

Swim School Levels Cont. Guppy Children three years old can begin getting comfortable in the water independent of their parents. Through patience and trust, children in this level will overcome their fear and eventually swim independently. Instructors work with children at their own pace and encourage students to progress through games and fun.
Starfish In this level, encouragement and positive reinforcement will help little swimmers become more skilled at swimming independently. Floating independently on their front and back as well as kicking across the pool on their back independently is stressed in this class for water safety reasons.
Froggie This is the first level in our larger lap pool. In this class, participants will build on their independence in the pool swimming further distances. Being able to transition from swimming on their front to their back with ease is one of the skills that will build this swimmer’s confidence. This is also a major water safety skill and a building block toward formalized strokes in future levels.
Turtle Children in this class will build on previous levels by working on swimming under water, beginning defined swimming strokes and learning more water safety skills. Swimmers will learn backstroke, front crawl, elementary backstroke and be able to retrieve toys from the bottom of the pool.
Otter Swimmers in the Otter class will gain confidence as they begin to swim further distances in backstroke, front crawl and elementary backstroke. Children will learn dolphin kick, breaststroke pull and kick and will start to learn flip turns.
forms of survival swimming which they will be able to do for ten consecutive minutes.
Adaptive These lessons are for participants with special needs. If you are interested in these lessons, please contact the Aquatic Director to schedule a time.
Private Lessons Private and Semi-Private lessons are available if you would like more attention for your child.
Pre-Swim Team This pre-swim team class is for swimmers who have passed our Otter level swimming lessons or above. Emphasis is learning and refining the four competitive strokes, endurance and having fun! This program is also for those wishing to join competitive swim teams and anyone who would benefit from additional practice on level Otter or higher swimming skills. This program is twice a week for 45 minutes.
Adult Beginner Lessons This class is for beginner swimmers who would like to learn the basic strokes or those who would like help fixing their basic strokes in order to become a better swimmer.
Adult Swim Team
Tuesday and Thursdays from 8:00-9:00 PM Our experienced instructor/coach will put together workouts to help the experienced swimmer get an appropriate workout for their skill level. This is an excellent program for triathletes who need help with training in the pool and some adjustments to obtain a more powerful and efficient stroke.
Seal Children in this class will increase their strength and endurance by swimming multiple lengths of front crawl and backstroke with flip turns. Your swimmer will progress by completing the butterfly and breaststroke. Endurance will be increased even more by working on being able to swim 300 yards continuously.
Shark These experienced swimmers will be able to swim multiple lengths of the pool in each of the competitive strokes: front crawl, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. Children in this class will also be skilled in elementary backstroke and sidestroke. Safety is emphasized in this class while students learn various 2960 Seter Parkway | Fargo, North Dakota 58104 | familywellnessfargo.org | 701.234.2400
