Tadpoles, our introductory pre-competitive program, is designed to prepare swimmers ages 5-10 to graduate to our first team level, Piranhas. The focus is on developing a strong foundation in stroke techniques: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke kick and butterfly kick.

Prerequisites: Swimmer must be able to enter the water independently, float on back, and do basic freestyle  with big arms partially or fully across a 25-yard pool.

Class: 45 minute classes run year-round, Monday through Thursday at 4 and 5 pm at Eagle Pool in Mountain View, and at Rengstorff Pool or Foothill College Pool during summer months. Classes are limited to 15 swimmers, 12 classes per session. Swimmers are not required to attend all 12 classes in a session but frequent attendance does result in faster progress.
