Swim for Life® is a comprehensive swim instruction program that focuses on the acquisition and development of fundamental swim strokes and skills for learners of all ages and abilities. Swim for Life® is accessible, flexible, success-oriented and fun. Instructors ensure swimmers get lots of in-water practice in every lesson. Swim for Life® flows seamlessly into the Canadian Swim Patrol program and then into the Society’s lifesaving training awards. The Canadian Swim Patrol program provides enriched training for those who are ready to go beyond learn-to-swim. Swim Patrol has three levels: Rookie, Ranger, and Star. These programs continue to develop participants’ swim strokes and provide the skill foundation that prepares them for success in the Society’s Bronze Medal awards. Each level of the Canadian Swim Patrol program has three modules: Water Proficiency, First Aid, and Recognition & Rescue.
The Parent & Tot program structures in-water interaction between parent/caregiver and child to stress the importance of play in developing water-positive attitudes and skills. Progression through the Parent & Tot program is age-based, and follows the following criteria: Parent & Tot 1: 4-12 months, Parent & Tot 2: 12-24 months, Parent & Tot 3: 24-36 months.
The Preschool program works to ensure children become comfortable in the water and have fun developing a foundation of water skills. Progression through the Preschool program is performance-based - swimmers move to the next level once they have completed all items in their current level.
