Dolphin Cove Swim SchoolDolphin Cove Swim School provides swimming instruction to children 6 to 18* years old with a five to one student-teacher ratio. Lessons are conducted in our heated pool which maintains a temperature of 88° so as to ensure a comfortable environment for all students including those participating in lessons held by Infant Swimming Resource. Our swim instructors are trained here at our TWIGS KIDS facility and many also have training from other institutions such as the Red Cross. Our teachers are highly specialized in teaching children from those who are just becoming "acquainted" with the water, to those involved with advanced swimming. Dolphin Cove Swim School is divided into two basic instructional programs along with our special TWIGS Swim Team. The first program is designed for "non-swimmers" while the second is for students who are learning competitive swimming techniques. In both programs, students rotate between stations where instructors teach a specific swimming skill. This use of stations ensures that all participating children are given the opportunity to learn and advance in each skill independently. Below, all of our swimming programs are listed along with the Dolphin Cove Swim School schedule.

*Aquatic survival lessons for children 6 months to 6 years old are taught by Infant Swimming Resource. Stroke Development lessons are designed for children who are either still learning, or not yet familiar with basic swimming skills. In addition to free-style and backstroke, students will be be taught bobs, floating, flutter kicks, breath control, and underwater swimming. The ultimate objective of the Stroke Development Program is for each participating child to be able to confidently swim 25 yards through freestyle stroke and perform basic backstroke technique. The Stroke Proficiency program instructs children, who are already able to perform freestyle and backstroke, in competitive and survival techniques. Along with other basic skills, students are taught the four competitive strokes, freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly, along with two survival strokes, sidestroke and elementary backstroke. The ultimate goal of the Stroke Proficiency program is for students to swim 300 yards. The TWIGS Swim Team consists of swimmers who have mastered all of the skills taught in the previous programs. Participants are instructed in new, more challenging skills by experienced instructors and compete with their teammates at meets held at the Dolphin Cove Swim School facility.
