Swim Lessons At Clearfield

Clearfield Aquatic and Fitness Center Swim Lessons are taught by certified instructors.

Participants of Clearfield Aquatic and Fitness Center’s swim lessons will learn basic water safety, hydrodynamic principles, and several strokes, including Front Crawl, Back Crawl, Breaststroke, Elementary Backstroke, Butterfly, and more. Advanced levels also learn competitive swimming starts and turns. Swim lessons are offered for all ages, including Parent & Child lessons for children 8 months to 3 years, children 3-14 years, and adult lessons for those 14 and up. For a complete list of skills taught, see SWIM LESSONS SKILLS below.

NEW: The registration process is changing slightly. Rather than trying to determine which skill level, or “Wave,” your child is in, lessons will be available to register for in the mornings, evenings, or on Saturdays. Select which time works best for you and sign all the kids up at that time. On the first day, our certified instructors will determine their skill level based on their current knowledge and place them in the appropriate group. See DAY 1 EXAMINATION SKILLS below for a basic rundown of the knowledge check.

Junior Lifeguard Program

Looking for something for youth ages 11 – 15 to do this summer? If they have completed swimming lessons through WAVE 4 they can join our team of Junior Lifeguards. They will learn all about aquatics, safety, refine their swimming skills, help with projects, visit other aquatic facilities and have fun. Participants will receive instruction in the American Red Cross Junior Lifeguarding program. Classes offered during the summer.

Lifeguarding Course

We teach the American Red Cross Lifeguarding course. Courses are offered in the fall, winter and spring. To enroll in the Lifeguarding course participants must be 15 years old on or before the final scheduled session of the course and must pass the prerequisite skills evaluation. This course will provide participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent, recognize, and respond to aquatic emergencies. In this class you will also learn how to provide care for breathing and cardiac emergencies and other injuries or sudden illnesses until more advanced care can be provided.
