Maple Hills Pool is proud to offer a progressive swim program to both members and non-members. Our program combines water safety skills, efficient stroke mastery and endurance building. Each class is designed to improve the swimmers water skills. The classes are in logical progression so that each swimmer can get the instruction they need. We are excited about teaching children to swim.
Program Philosophy:
At Maple Hills all students can learn to swim. The instructors will identify the strengths and weaknesses of all their students, and use strategies to best instruct all students, and facilitate an effective and efficient lesson class every day. Students deserve to learn at their own pace but must be pushed by the staff to learn new skills.
Goals:
· Create the most comprehensive, adaptable, consistent swim lesson program of any pool in the area. To be an example that other pools strive to reach within their program.
· Improve the skills of swimmers at any age and any skill level that choose to attend our program.
· Create an atmosphere where fun is part of the hard work by the students.
Our instructors love to swim! They will pass on their love for swimming as they interact with their students. They will effectively communicate both student accomplishments and needs to guardians.
The skill sets for each class will consistently build upon a lower level class skill set. The class skills set are established by the management of the club. If a student progresses past a class’ skill set during a lesson session, then the student will be started on the skills for the next class level.
