Learn to Swim - Mini Hyack Program 

 

 

The City of Coquitlam and HYACK Swim Club jointly run the Mini Hyack Program at the City Centre Aquatic Complex (CCAC) in Coquitlam. Mini Hyack Program is a program dedicated to teaching children to swim well in a fun, challenging and rewarding atmosphere. The program teaches children the basics of the four swimming strokes: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle. As well, participants are introduced to swimming starts, turns and components of other aquatic sports.

This program is very open-ended and promotes the development of a swimmer rather than a "pass-fail" method.

Equivalency levels:

**Please note that while we provide general equivalency levels from lessons' swimming, we still require an assessment of all NEW Mini Hyack registrants. This is to ensure the most appropriate and effective level placement for the swimmer and the group**
