Dolphins Beginners (Ages 7-10 with little or no swim experience)

Dolphins Beginning and Advanced are for older children who are afraid of water or never taken lessons. The Dolphins classes are the equivalent of Guppies/Tadpoles and 1^st Beginners/2^nd Beginners for older children. This is to make sure the older child is in a class with similarly aged children. After passing Dolphins Advanced the next class will be Level 3 (Deep Water).

A child who enrolls in Dolphins Beginners should meet the following requirements:

• Is between the ages of 7 and 10
• Either has not received lessons previously and/or is uncomfortable in the water. Being uncomfortable means they are hesitant to put their face in the water
• Relaxed and ready to learn in the water
• Puts whole head in easily, holding it in for at least 5-10 seconds
