Coach Valentin has a class for you and the youngest people in your family
Robert J. Valentin’s Blue Ocean Swimming program is always fun and challenging. He keeps it fun by keeping the class moving, keeping the skills changing, and incorporating a little controlled chaos. He makes it challenging, by introducing drills and exercises that require concentration, balance, and a little strength.
When I visit you for a consultation and/or coaching session, I will develop a session this is unique to your child. My teaching philosophy and methodology is based on the descriptions below...
SPLASHERS
(2-6 months)
The Splashers group is primarily designed to introduce young babies and toddlers to the wonderful world of aquatics. Parents and children play and sing together while becoming familiar with skills such as kicking, bubble blowing, jumping and floating.

SCOOTERS
(6-18 months)
Scooters are mastering the ability to move themselves through the water. With the aid of swim bubbles and noodles, scooters are learning about breath control, proper arm and leg movements, buoyancy and deep water exploration.

GLIDERS

Gliders work on efficient swimming. Swimmers are introduced to new and challenging drills that help to promote an efficient Freestyle Stroke. This group will focus mastering the streamline, establishing and maintaining a flow line and reducing stroke counts. Gliders also work on bi-lateral breathing, sculling & flip turns. Gliders are introduced to Back, Breast & Butterfly strokes.
