BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - Head coach Bridget Hilferty has announced the dates for swim lessons held by the Bloomsburg men's and women's swimming teams and coaching staff. All lessons will take place at Nelson Field House pool on the campus of Bloomsburg.

Swim lesson instructors will be the Huskies' coaching staff and members of the Bloomsburg swim team. Everyone involved is excited to share their love of water with you and your child.

The main focus of the program is to give each swimmer as much individual attention as possible. We will aim to have a 6:1 student to teacher ratio. This might limit the number of students we can handle per session. We will do our best to accommodate everyone.

Swim lessons will run every Monday through Thursday for four weeks. Each lesson will be 40 minutes. Payment will be due at the first lesson and can be made by cash or check. Parents must remain at the pool during the lessons. The cost is $80 per child per week.

There are two levels of lessons offered - Novice and Intermediate.

Novice (Level I)
This class is for young children still learning to become more comfortable in the water. Skills learned at this level include: entering the pool safely, going under the water, holding their breath, floating, kicking, and retrieving submerged objects.

Intermediate (Level II(+)
This class is for children who have mastered all Level I skills. They will learn the basics of swimming including: kicking on both back and stomach, streamlining off the wall, rhythmic breathing, and the introduction of other strokes.
