Springfield Swim Calendar
Select Class Level
Baby — Beginner
In our “Baby & Me” or Baby – Beginner class, swimmers will have a parent alongside them. We focus on getting both baby and parent comfortable in the water. Parents can expect to see their baby learning to float on their back, climb in and out of the water, and safely go underwater.
Most babies age out of “Baby & Me” when they reach 3 years and transition to our Level 1 – Beginner class. Some toddlers who display confidence in the water and can float and swim 3 feet on their own graduate to our more advanced baby swim class, Baby – Independence.
Baby — Independence
Baby – Independence is for toddlers who have graduated from our Baby – Beginner class. Parents are no longer required in the water with their little one. Toddlers must be able to float on their own and swim 3 feet independently (with no help). This class focuses on advancing their safety skills and learning to swim independently with windmill arms and rollover breathing.
At age 3, swimmers age up to Level 1 – Beginner or Level 1 – Advanced.

Adult — Beginner
For anyone 16 years and older who has little to no prior experience with swimming. We can help you conquer your fears and/or reach a new milestone in the pool.
We’ll work on gaining comfort, floating, treading, and–when you’re ready–swimming 20 yards. Additional work in the water will include jumping in, turning around, grabbing the wall, using windmill arms, and mastering rollover breathing.
Adult — Advanced
For anyone 16 years and older who is comfortable in the water, but wants to build confidence, endurance, and technique. Students should be able to jump in, tread water for two minutes, and float on their back.
We will work together to increase treading time and achieve longer distances in both freestyle and backstroke. Goals for the advanced adult class include a five-minute tread without using any buoyancy device, a 40-yard freestyle swim, and a 40-yard backstroke.
