Instructional Group

Designed for individuals ages 6 and older with a physical, visual, or intellectual disability who are new to swimming, with direct hands-on instructional coaching design and volunteer support. This group is perfect for individuals who are new to the sport, have interest in improving skills to be able to join a recreational or competitive swim team, and/or would like to learn the basics in a safe environment.

Independent Group

Designed for individuals with a physical, visual, or intellectual disability who have prior swim experience. This group is perfect for swimmers who are already part of a USA, YMCA, high school, or summer swim team and would like to fine-tune swim technique and stroke pattern, improve endurance, boost performance, and connect with other local para swimmers. This group is also appropriate for those who want to improve technique for fitness or recreational swimming. Instruction will target each individual swimmer’s level from entry level swim team to elite para swimming. Swimmers must be able to swim a minimum of 50 yards independently in the water to participate in the Advanced Program.
