While we try to make swim lessons as fun as possible what is taught is extremely serious and invaluable. Lil' Swimmer Aquatics teaches children from about 6 months to 7 years survival swimming and stroke skills based on the proven PediaSwim methodology for children in the greater Apollo Beach, Ruskin, and Riverview areas. Children learn appropriate swimming postures which allow them to rotate into a back float position to rest and breathe. This important skill will prepare your child should they fall into the water. Children also learn to swim between adults, pool steps and the pool edge to improve their skills and for fun. Infants and toddlers are taught to swim, roll completely over onto their backs to float and breathe. They are able to remain in this position for a very long time, even while fully clothed.
