Orcas (Learn to Swim 7-10 years old)
It's never too late to learn to swim. Our Orcas classes are designed for children age 7 to 10 years old and include 4 different levels. Children should never feel embarrassed if they don’t know how to swim at a later age. Instead, they should be encouraged to develop their swimming skills in a structured and supportive environment. Older children tend to become accustomed to the water and learn more quickly than younger children, allowing them to advance quickly and catch up to those within their age group in virtually no time at all.
