Why Float for Life? Purpose: Safety First Classes are designed to teach children how to breathe, in water, by rolling over to their back and floating.
This lifesaving technique can give each child those few extra seconds that could save their life.
Children will learn safety skills that can be used throughout life. They will learn to float, swim to the side of the pool and move in and out of water
comfortably.
This class should not replace regular swimming lessons. Instead, it will enhance your child’s ability to be safe in a “this could never happen to me” situation.
