Our Dolphin and Whale swim levels focus on developing the swimmer's technique and endurance.
Dolphin
Dolphin swimmers have mastered the water safety basics, becoming a Certified Safe Swimmer. They will now focus more on developing the strength, stamina, and techniques for proper swim strokes such as:
-
Advanced Freestyle with side breathing
-
Break stroke
-
Standing dives
-
Treading water
-
Lap swimming
Once the dolphin swimmer has become proficient with these skills, they complete the dolphin level and advance to a Whale swimmer.
Whale
Whale swimmers are nearly finished with the Safe N Sound Swimming’s curriculum. Whale swimmers are working on advanced skills which prepare them for competitive and long-distance swimming as well life guarding. Skills gained at the Whale level include:
-
Butterfly
-
Competitive starts and flip turns
-
Distance swimming in a group including circle swimming
-
Endurance building by isolating certain stroke elements (i.e. kicks with kick board, side breathing with one arm etc)
-
Stroke development and refinement.
