In this level you and your tiny swimmer will become more confident with different holds and positioning in the pool. Your swimmer will be able to free float between you and the instructor as well as between you and the stairs. Your swimmer will learn underwater turn arounds in this level, an essential skill for returning to safety after and accidental fall into water.
