PROGRESSIVE SWIM PROGRAM


Where Swimmers

Make Real Progress


Experience a progressive approach to swim lessons that helps students ages 3 and up transform their swimming capabilities and confidence at any stage of skill.


personalized instruction

Swimmers are unique individuals - not a level.

Swimmers at every skill stage have unique needs, and traditional swim lessons based on levels can create skill gaps and plateaus.


In small classes with a 2:1 student to instructor ratio, we personalize every lesson to meet each swimmer where they are, helping them continuously improve as they grow. 


WETS Certified Instructors guide swimmers through our award-winning Progressive Swim Program using WETS' proven skill-building method and progression system that makes learning to swim exciting and enjoyable.

PROGRESSIVE SKILL-BUILDING

DEVELOPMENT STAGES

WETS integrates decades of aquatic education expertise with its proven skill-building approach that focuses on continuous improvement through

WETS 1 and WETS 2 development stages.

swim foundations & water safety

WETS 1

WETS 1 begins as students enter the water with a focus on developing confidence and easing fears. This stage equips students with the building blocks of swimming. 


FOUNDATIONS

Students learn floats and glides on both their front and back, and progress to completing a 25-meter survival swim with coordinated breathing techniques.


WATER SAFETY

As students practice safe water entries, they gradually progress to jumping into deep water and returning to safety.

STROKE techniques & endurance

WETS 2

WETS 2 advances student's swimming capabilities, refining four essential stroke techniques including Front Crawl, Back Crawl, Elementary Backstroke, and Breaststroke.


STROKE TECHNIQUES

Students have the flexibility to choose which strokes to focus on first, tailoring their learning to their preferences, strengths and goals.


ENDURANCE

As students demonstrate their stroke proficiency, they work on extending their swimming distances and building stronger endurance up to 500 meters.

Why limit swim education to a level when there are skills and corrections that can help a swimmer progress?

MEASURABLE PROGRESS

SKILL PROGRESSIONS

Swimmers receive a Swim Progression Wristband when they register as part of our progression system. As swimmers demonstrate new skills, they earn tokens that visually mark their progress.


Unlike traditional programs, WETS continuously recognizes each swimmer's achievements as they advance through the WETS 1 and WETS 2 development stages.


Upon completing their skill token collection, swimmers graduate from the program with an official WETS certificate celebrating their swimming accomplishments.
