Dolphin Dashers
Our Dolphin Dashers group swim lessons category is specifically designed for children aged 6 to 12 years old, offering an exciting and comprehensive summer swimming program.
Just like our Seahorse category, Dolphin Dashers also includes a beginner class that focuses on water comfort and acclimation before progressing to the first level of the dolphin program. Each level of the Dolphin Dashers program builds upon the skills learned in the previous level, offering more refined techniques and advanced swimming exercises. From stroke refinement to water safety techniques, our experienced instructors guide our young dolphins through a structured curriculum, ensuring a safe and enjoyable swimming experience while fostering a love for the water. With a focus on both skill development and water safety, our Dolphin Dashers group swim lessons provide children with the tools and confidence to become strong, confident swimmers.
