Diving has both a mix of swim and gymnastics. In this class we will practice basic intro tumble skills that will translate to diving, on a mat on the pool deck, as well as, from an elevated dive mat on the side of the pool.
We will work on learning to jump into the the pool with a straight body position, both forward and backward. Learn to twist the body while jumping with a straight body. We will work toward forward and backward rolls on the mat, and as they become more comfortable, into the pool. We will also begin working on diving in head first from different levels, starting in a seated position and building to diving in from the pool side mat.
Your little diver will develop a foundation for some of the basic technique needed to grow in the sport of diving to make for an easy and confident transition to the diving board, as they get older and more confident.

Requirements: Must be able to confidently swim to the side without any support or floatation devices (about 15 – 20 feet)
Must be comfortable in deep water, this class is run in the diving well of the pool, near the diving boards (12.5 feet deep)
