                             YOUTH SWIMMING LESSON GUIDELINES
  The typical ages recommended for each level are used as a guideline to match the required skills. These
  levels are somewhat intense and may require a child to repeat a level to accomplish all of the required skills.
  American Red Cross guidelines are followed closely.
