Adult Swim Quiz

Review the following questions to pinpoint the best place for you as you begin your swimming adventure.

  • Are you comfortable floating on your front, away from the wall in shallow water, and then standing up?

  • Can you comfortably float on your back in shallow water?

  • Can you roll over comfortably between the front and back float?

  • Can you get air without standing up or holding the side of the pool?

If you answered NO to any of these questions, sign up for Beginning Swimming 1.

In addition to the previous,

  • Can you comfortably roll over between the front and back float, repeatedly?

  • Can you swim one length of the pool, putting your face in and out of the water to breathe?

If you answered NO to any of these questions sign up for Beginning Swimming 1.

If you answered YES to all the questions, then you are ready for Beginning Swimming 2.

  • Can you swim 25 yds or more, front and back with consistent rollovers and breath exchange?
