Swim Lessons
Learn to Swim Program
The Burbank Park District swim program presents an extensive selection of courses. This program provides opportunities for achievement and allows smooth transitions between levels of instruction. A wide variety of activities are offered at every level. These activities stimulate interest and motivate students to advance to the next level of swim instruction.
NOTE: During the first lesson, children are tested and placed in a level according to their ability. Please register for all swim lessons desired to guarantee your child’s placement in them. Registration for one session will not guarantee placement in succeeding sessions.
Infant Lessons
Don’t let your child grow up afraid of the water. These lessons acquaint the infant with water, as well as removing
some fears. This program will get children used to opening their eyes and putting their heads under water. All children must wear a swim diaper and a swim suit. Moms or Dads are required to assist and must go into the water. Please register for all swim sessions desired to guarantee your child’s placement in them. Registration for one session will
not guarantee placement in succeeding sessions.

joints. This class will strengthen and tone individual muscle groups with walking, jogging and exercises. Swimming skills are not necessary to enjoy this class.
Diving Lessons
Diving Lessons will be offered for those who are interested in the basics of diving techniques. Students will learn the correct approach technique as well as basic front and back dives. More advanced students will then move on to learn how to perform pikes, front flips, and reverse dives using proper form. This is an introduction course for anyone who would like to learn how to do basic skills off the diving board or for those interested in joining a high school diving team.
