Swim Basics Water Acclimation Stage 1 Preschool ages (3-5) at Fulton County YMCA
Stage 1: Water Acclimation is the starting point for young swimmers to build comfort and confidence in the water. In this stage, children learn foundational skills such as blowing bubbles, submerging their face, floating with support, and safely entering and exiting the pool. They are gently introduced to movement in the water through guided activities that build trust, body awareness, and basic safety skills. This level is perfect for beginners or swimmers who are still becoming comfortable putting their face in the water and moving independently.

Water Movement Stage 2 Preschool Age (3-5)
Stage 2: Water Movement builds on foundational skills by helping swimmers move through the water with greater independence and confidence. In this stage, children begin to glide, kick, and propel themselves forward without constant support, while continuing to develop essential water safety skills. They learn how to safely enter and exit the pool, float on both front and back, roll between positions, and begin basic self-rescue techniques like ?swim, float, swim.? This level is ideal for swimmers who are comfortable putting their face in the water and are ready to start moving independently while building endurance, coordination, and safety awareness.
Water Stamina Stage 3 Preschool age (3-5) at Fulton County YMCA
Stage 3: Water Stamina is where swimmers begin to develop endurance, coordination, and confidence in deeper water. In this stage, swimmers build on their foundational skills by combining arm movements, kicking, and rhythmic breathing to swim longer distances on both front and back. They begin to move with greater efficiency and control while practicing important safety skills in deeper water environments. Students will also strengthen essential self-rescue techniques like ?swim, float, swim,? while improving their ability to tread water and navigate the pool with growing independence. This level is ideal for swimmers who are comfortable moving through the water and are ready to increase stamina, refine technique, and build true aquatic confidence.
