Mercer University Swim Program
The focus is on achievable levels for children (beginning at 6-months old) to adults of all ages. Our goal is to provide the instruction and motivation for students to learn skills that will allow them to participate in swimming and water fun throughout their lifetime.
The Learn-to-Swim Program provides instruction to help swimmers of all ages and abilities develop their swimming and water safety skills. It is designed to give students a positive learning experience.
We offer six comprehensive course levels that teach participants how to swim skillfully and safely. The prerequisite for each level is successful demonstration of the skills taught in the preceding level. Beginners start at Level1, which has no prerequisite.
Learn-to-swim teaches aquatic and safety skills in a logical progression. The objective is to teach people to swim and too be safe in, on and around the water.
