in all four competitive strokes. Group classes are between 2-5 students per coach (depending

Youth Swim Instruction (ages 5-10)
The progressions and skills taught in the LJCC JAWS Swim School have been
designed while keeping the overall developmental needs and stages in
mind. All lessons are implemented and taught by highly skilled and trained
instructors. Our swim school classes are designed for swimmers age 3 and up.
Swimmers progress through different levels learning water safety and proper
stroke technique in all four competitive strokes. Group classes are between
2-5 students per coach (depending on level) and are 45 minutes in duration.
Private lessons are also available (see page 18).
Youth Group Swim Lessons
5–10 year olds. Proper fitting goggles & swim cap recommended.
Upon enrollment, each child will receive a swim bag to carry
his/her swim gear. As a child completes the goals for each level, he/she
will receive a ribbon of completion to attach to his/her bag.
Youth classes are great for children who have not had the opportunity to learn to swim at a
young age as well as for those that wish to become better swimmers. Designed for children
to learn in an environment appropriate to their age and developmental level. Suggested
age to begin this journey is between 5-6 years of age. Our lessons are divided into 3 class
