swim program

ASLC offers a comprehensive swim program. From Parent & Tot to advanced lifesaving; from syncho and water fun to lane swimming for both children and adults. We’re happy to offer something something for every age!  Advanced registration on CourtReserve is required.

  • The Parent & Tot program is a great way to build your child’s water confidence while having lots of fun! We use games, songs and simple instruction to help children learn to establish an expectation for adult supervision in and around the water; to enter and exit the water in a safe manner, explore submerging in a rhythmic pattern through bobbing & blowing bubbles, and to kick and float.  Ages 4 - 36 months

  • Lifesaving Society of Canada Pre-School is a special program designed for those 3-5 years of age. Swimmers work on basic skills such as floats and glides and kicking, and learn independence in the water.

  • Lifesaving Society of Canada is a 6-level + swim patrol program for children aged 5 and up. Children learn to swim, be fit, and stay safe in a fun environment that promotes achieving a personal best and celebrates personal success.

  • Bronze Medallion  and Bronze Cross teaches an understanding of the lifesaving principles embodied in the 4 components of water-rescue education - judgment, knowledge, skill and fitness.

  • Fitness Swim: Offered from 8am-9am on weekdays.

  • Junior Lifeguard Club: The Junior Lifeguard Club offers a unique aquatic alternative for those kids who love the water and who want more than "lessons." The Junior Lifeguard Club keeps kids interested and active in aquatics – especially quick learners and those caught between levels. The Junior Lifeguard Club is perfect for youth who thrive in an energetic learning environment. This is a two-week program for kids ages 8+, from 4-5pm (Weeks 1 & 2).

  • Private/Family Lessons are offered for all swim levels. If you are more comfortable having lessons with our instructors on your own or with your family, we have build private lesson slots into our program. You can sign up for these online on CourtReserve.
