*Tiny Turtles is a group lesson program offered to our most beginner swimmers in shallow water at our outdoor locations ONLY. FINS coaches will work with swimmers in a small group setting to begin to build swimmers’ comfort levels in and around the water, help develop and strengthen general water safety skills and introduce foundational skills for freestyle and forward swimming through song, game, and play-based instruction.

*Tiny Turtles is a great group for swimmers who are just starting their swimming journey!

*In order to participate, swimmers must be toilet-trained and willing to enter into the shallow area of the pool without Mom, Dad, or a grown-up present.  Excellent coach-to-swimmer ratio!

Note: Parents are able to view the pool and session from a designated seating area or from outside of the facility, but are not allowed to be in immediate proximity to the practice. Those more advanced beginner swimmers who feel comfortable swimming in some deeper water, submerging, back floating, and have already developed foundational skills for freestyle and forward movement through the water will be able to transition into more advanced groupings after being evaluated during practice.
