About Us
For the younger children, the Calgary
P-Too Learn-to-Swim association offers a unique adaptation of the award winning, Calgary-based, Sears I Can Swim Program.
Our program incorporates all aspects of the
Sears I Can Swim Program
along with many pre-competitive elements, making it a perfect first step to
either recreational or competitive swimming.
The P-Too program differs from other learn-to-swim programs because the
primary focus is on stroke development. From the very first lesson, coaches
work to maximize the time a child actually spends swimming. Small class
sizes also allow both group coaching, and one on one instruction. Another
advantage to P-Too is that there are only two sessions per year, with most
children staying all year. As a result, children stay with the same coach
and classmates for most or all of the year. This continuity increases the
speed at which children learn; it also adds to their enjoyment because they
are able to make friends in their classes.
The P-Too
program is divided into three levels: Bronze, Silver
and Gold,
based on skill. Any child between the ages of 6 and 9 inclusive
are welcome, and the minimum level of swimming required to enter bronze is that
they are comfortable in deep water without assistance.
If you
are interested, classes run twice a week for 45 minutes, and we have sessions at
both Glenmore Pool and the Calgary Jewish Center.
