Big Swimmer

Ages 7 - 9

Big Swimmer is built for school-aged kids who are ready to level up their swimming skills and confidence. In this program, we focus on refining technique, building endurance, and developing strong, coordinated strokes—including breathing skills that set them up for more advanced swimming. With small group sizes and energetic instructors, swimmers get the support they need to make real progress—while still having a ton of fun in the process.

The Big Swimmer program features four progressive levels that challenge and motivate kids at every stage of their aquatic journey. And don’t worry—there’s still a spot for you! Parents and guardians are welcome to cheer from the viewing area as their swimmer grows stronger with each splash and stroke.

Our Levels

  • Class Length: 30 Minutes

    Big Swimmer Level 1

    Small group swim lessons for ages 7–9 | Max 4 swimmers per instructor

    Our Level 1 class is the perfect starting point for swimmers aged 7–9 who are new to lessons or have limited experience in the water. If you're unsure where your swimmer fits, Level 1 is a great place to begin—and we're happy to help make adjustments after an initial assessment. 

    Our program runs on a monthly membership model based on 4 lessons per month. 

    If you're a parent looking to enroll a new swimmer at The Swim Space, here's how it works:

    • We begin reviewing all new enrollment requests after the 15th day of the current month

    • If your request is approved, your membership will begin on the 1st day of the upcoming month

    During the 1st two weeks of each month, our current members are offered the chance to transfer into available spaces— whether due to schedule changes or level progression. Because of this, we can’t guarantee requested times, even if a class appears open when requested.  Please feel free to let us know of alternate class times that would work for you, in the event that your preferred class is not available.

    No payment will be processed unless we confirm a spot for your swimmer.

    Safety First
    Our small group format allows instructors to give each swimmer the attention they need to thrive. If a swimmer requires one-on-one support beyond what’s possible in this setting, we may not be able to accommodate them in a group class at this time.

    Big Swimmer Level 2

    Small group swim lessons for ages 7–9 | Max 4 swimmers per instructor

    Level 2 is designed for swimmers aged 7–9 who are already comfortable in the water and can move confidently with some level of independence. This level builds on fundamental skills like kicking, floating, gliding, and introducing coordinated arm movements. Swimmers should be able to submerge fully  and return to a standing position with ease.

    If your swimmer is transferring from another program, we’ll typically start them in Level 2 and assess their skills during class. From there, we’ll help determine whether Level 2 is the best fit or if they’re ready to move to a higher level. Entry into Level 3 is reserved for swimmers who have passed our Level 2 or been formally assessed by our team.

    Our program runs on a monthly membership model based on 4 lessons per month.
