Please note that given the City of Markham restrictions on opening pools in our area, we are not able to offer our Recreational classes for the remainder of 2020. Please check back with us in January 2021.
The recreational program is now offered in three locations:
The Recreation program is intended to give participants an introduction to the sport of artistic swimming. We have combined some of the essential skills with Ontario Artistic Swimming Aqua-Go program.
Our classes run for one hour, once a week, for various length sessions. Each lesson your child can expect to participate in stretching, warm-up, review and practice, learning new skills, routine development, and a variety of games and activities.
We follow the Ontario Artistic Swimming Aqua-Go program with the LTAD (Long Term Athlete Development) model in mind. The program addresses each of the 5 Basic S's of Training and Performance: Strength, Stamina, Suppleness, Speed and Skill. In addition we have added a 6th S: Social, as teamwork is so key in artistic swimming.
Swimmers in our recreational program will learn a variety of basic skills and work on a short routine. On the last day of classes swimmers will be tested for their Ontario Artistic Swimming badge and will perform their routine.
Please feel free to Contact Us for any further information.
