Dynamite Dolphin Swim Program 

The Del Amigo Pool Association is excited to offer a fun, non- competitive swim lesson program designed for children 3-6 years old. Dynamites is a pre-team program that bridges between the Learn To Swim lessons and the competitive swim team,

The skills learned in Dynamites are to have an awareness of body control, freestyle with side breathing, back stroke, butterfly kick, butterfly swim and basic diving knowledge.  By the end of the program, swimmers will be able to swim length of pool and be ready for swim team.  Also, just as important as the skills learned is to nurture a love for the water as well as meet new friends.

Swimmers must be able to be independent in water with fins and kickboard prior to beginning the program.

Dynamites is a 6 week program

Guppies Program 

Guppies is a program aimed at 2 - 3.5 year olds designed to get swimmers comfortable in the water.  Swimmers will work on going underwater, rolling to their back and safely returning to the wall after jumping in.  The goal of this program is to teach swimmers basic life-saving water safety skills.  In the small group setting swimmers will have time to make friends while also learning how to be safe in a pool.  Parents will NOT be in the water.

Swimmers must be potty trained and have some experience/be comfortable in the water.

Guppies is a 5 week program
