Youth Fitness Swim

Appropriately challenging, fun, guided workouts for experienced youth swimmers and off season school team swimmers interested in fitness opportunities. 

Generally this program is appropriate for swimmers aged 6-18 who have previously participated in our Youth Learn to Swim Gulls, Petrels, Flamingos, Osprey, Seahawks or Falcons or an American Red Cross level 4 and above at another facility. This is NOT lessons and does not include that type of direct contact or physical support.  Swimmers will be assigned lanes and space on the bleachers so that everyone has personal space. Workouts consist of a stretching warm up, drill and endurance sets, and a cool down. Swimmers will learn about heart rate and a perceived exertion scale as tools for assessing physical fitness. Kickboards, pull buoys and fins are some of the equipment they will use.
