OLDER STARTERS (OS):
This class is designed for swimmers whose age and ability level do not align well with the RKSA lanes/levels. We have 5 ability levels, and most swimmers in lane 1/level 1 are Age 3.5-6. Older Starters have started the learn to swim process later in life, so their skill level is equivalent to lane 1 but are between the age of 7-11 years. In OS, all swimmers are 7-11 years so they do not have to learn with young swimmers and that makes for a more comfortable environment. Once their skills catch up to lane 2 or lane 3 level, we'll graduate you out of this program and you'll be placed in a traditional GROUP LESSON (not the OS, specialty class).
