Special Interest

Art Journaling & Mixed Media Workshop (ages 14+) Whether you’re looking to express yourself creatively for the first time, or are an experienced artist in a creative rut, you’ll be inspired by art journaling. Art Journaling is a process of having fun with art, releasing any self-criticism, like we did as children. For experienced artists the process of art journaling and connecting with others in the creative process ignites new fires and opens new doors. For those with no experience this can be a very therapeutic and fun workshop. Skill is not necessary to get the most out this experience, but skill may be discovered during the process as different media and techniques are introduced. Crafters, scrapbookers, photographers, and all interested in having creative fun will benefit from this workshop. Students will supply their own materials. Instructor: Tamika Diaz.

Art Journaling & Mixed Media Workshop (ages 14+) Whether you’re looking to express yourself creatively for the first time, or are an experienced artist in a creative rut, you’ll be inspired by art journaling. Art Journaling is a process of having fun with art, releasing any self-criticism, like we did as children. For experienced artists the process of art journaling and connecting with others in the creative process ignites new fires and opens new doors.

Making a Well-Rounded Workout

Aerobic exercise, strength training and flexibility make a good, healthy mix!A balanced fitness program consisting of aerobic conditioning, strengthening and stretching helps you become fully fit, reduces your chance of injury and broadens your workout options to help minimize boredom.

Aerobic fitnessYou should be able to exert yourself without becoming winded. The lungs take in more oxygen, the heart pumps more blood to spread that oxygen throughout your body and the body converts the oxygen into en-ergy more efficiently. Getting your heart pumping will reward you with improved metabolism, better mood, more energy, increased stamina, and, as studies show, decreased inflammation.

Muscular fitnessStrength training makes your joints more stable. Strong muscles help keep bones positioned properly, and building muscle through weight-bearing exercise increases bone density, decreasing your risk for osteo-porosis and fractures.

FlexibilityTo decrease daily joint stiffness and maintain or improve range of motion in joints, stretch. To minimize muscle soreness after training with weights, squeeze in a few stretches between sets. Stretching muscles while they are warm reduces injury.

Set Realistic Goals Build your exercise routine slowly in five- to 10-minute blocks of time. Exercise time is cumulative, three 10-minute sessions throughout the day are as effective as one 30-minute session.

Frequently Asked Questions

1) If I’m new to the area or this will be the first time my child and/or I will take swimming lessons, how will I know what swim lesson level to register for? There are FREE swim evaluations for children and adults before the start of every swim lesson registration period. During these evaluations, trained aquatic instruc-tors can assess the participant’s swimming skill and provide feedback on the best swim level.

2) What happens if a swim class gets cancelled? Generally, a make-up class will be added, extending the session as many days as needed. Make up sessions will be conducted on the same day of the week and time as the normally scheduled class. However, there will be times when there aren’t enough days to make up swim lessons. In these instances a $5 refund will be provided each participant for each class cancelled. The Class Cancellation policy is listed in the back of this brochure.


Aq

ua

tics3) Why are swim classes at an indoor pool

cancelled for thunder and lightning? Although the indoor pool is grounded, it still runs the chance of being struck by lightning. This cancellation policy was created as a safety precaution for all aquatic participants.

4) How will I know if my child should be registered for Level 1 or Level 2 swim lessons? The easiest way to determine the appropriate level is to gauge your child’s comfort in the water. If your child is comfortable in the water and will submerge their face, they should be registered for Level 2. If your child is timid in or near the water and is not comfortable submerging their face, nose or eyes in water, register them for

Level 1.

5) How many participants are there in a group swimming class? In Swim Levels 1-5, there’s a maximum of 7 participants. Level 6 Rec Racers Fitness Swimmer has a maximum of 25 participants. In Parent and Child Aquatics Level A and Preschool Aquatics, there’s a maximum of 15 participants.

6) How long are swim classes? Parent and Child Aquatics classes are 30 minutes. All other swim classes are 45 minutes.

7) Do I have to stay on the pool deck while my child is taking lessons? If your child is enrolled in any swim lesson under Level 4, you must stay on the pool deck during lessons. Children in lessons under Level 4 have not yet developed the skills and endurance needed to pass the facility’s swim test, and therefore cannot swim without a parent present.

8) Can I drop my child off for swim class and then pick them up when it is finished? No, you must be in the facility while your child is participating in swim classes. If your child is in a swim lesson under Level 4, you must be on the pool deck.

9) Can we come in early or stay after class and swim? Yes, if your child has passed the swim test and has a current membership. However, keep in mind space is limited during classes.

10) Can someone other than a parent bring my child to class? Yes, but they must follow the same rules and stay on the pool deck with the child at all times.

11) If my child misses a class session, can they attend another class/another time? Because each class is based on size and ability, we cannot make individual accommodations.

12) How old must a child be to start swimming lessons? Participants must be at least six months old to register for Parent and Child Aquatics.

13) What is the temperature of the water? The temperature of the water is 84 degrees.

14) How quickly should my child advance through the various levels? Keep in mind that every child learns and advances at his/her own pace. Try not to compare your child to other members of the class; they will progress as they are ready.

15) What should I do if the class I need is full or if there are not enough participants enrolled? If a class is full, please sign up for the waiting list of ONLY the class in which you’re interested. The Aquatic Program Coordinator will contact you if there are openings available. Register early as classes fill up fast! Classes that have not met minimum enrollment will be cancelled the Friday before they are scheduled to start.

16) What if my child is registered for the wrong level? Be sure to read the class descriptions carefully. If a child is signed up for the incorrect class level, there is no guarantee that the child will be transferred to the correct class level once class begins. Children will only be transferred to the correct class level if there is space available in the class. If there is no space in the correct class level, a refund will be issued to the household.

17) What level should I register for if my child has taken a session off? It’s recommended that they repeat the most recent class they have passed or be evaluated on a free swim evaluation day.

18) Why should I add my child on a wait list? If your child is placed on a “wait list” when a class is full, then we will try to accommodate those waiting to enroll as soon as possible.

This swim program is progressive and taught by an American Red Cross Certified Water Safety Instructor. On average, participants repeat each level two to three times before becoming proficient in the required skills. This is very important for successful completion of each level. The ages on all swimming levels after Child Aquatics are 5 and older. If a child is four years old and has successfully completed Child Aquatics, they may register for American Red Cross Levels 1 or 2.

Preschool Aquatics (ages 3-5)Preschool Aquatics is designed for all swimmers ages 3-5. The skill focus will be a wide range of skills from beginner to more advanced swimming skills in preparation for American Red Cross Levels 1 and 2. Students will learn how to enter and exit the water in a safe manner, feel comfortable in the water, submerge in a rhythmic pattern, explore buoyancy in a front and back position, perform combined strokes on front and back, change body positions in water, and learn about choosing and using life jackets. Non-toilet trained children must wear a swim diaper. Class size is limited to a maximum of 15 children per three instructors.
