PETALUMA VALLEY SWIM SCHOOL | GROUP LESSONS » | PRIVATE LESSONS » Petaluma Valley Swim School at Petaluma Valley Athletic Club emphasizes water safety and encourages skills development by providing effective awards of achievement as the junior swimmer advances their skills!
Grouped according to swim ability into different levels, junior swimmers are provided opportunities to advance levels by meeting specific water and safety skill benchmarks. In the advanced swim level of Wave Riders Stroke School, drills are used to teach and reinforce proper stroke techniques including balance and rotation, air exchange, timing, pulling, and kicking. At every level, swimmers are awarded colorful patches that highlight each level of achievement and can be proudly displayed on each junior swimmer's Petaluma Valley Swim School Tote (provided to each junior swimmer on first day of class).
