This class is the intermediate level for 3 year olds, and is typically taught with the Super Starfish as a combined level. 

To be placed into this class, students MUST be comfortable in the water, floating and swimming with their face in and using proper breath control techniques.  This challenging class for 3 year olds still involves age appropriate daily themes.  The focus of this level centers around breath control and the transitional skill of the rollover breath, which is used for the student to gain a breath on their own.

  • Prerequisite: Swims 5 feet, comfortable facefloat and backfloat
  • Final Goals: Independent facefloat and backfloat, swims 15 feet with a rollover breath
