2018 SUMMER YOUTH GUIDETREASURE VALLEY FAMILY YMCA

BEST SUMMER EVER AT THE TREASURE VALLEY FAMILY YMCA

Well, first you’d have to answer “what is the Y?” It could be any of our amazing facilities throughout the Treasure Valley, including our new one in south Meridian, or even our campgrounds at Horsethief Reservoir; but it’s more than that! The Y isn’t just a place, it’s an opportunity to make new friends, discover your potential, experience something new, and just have fun. A summer at the Y focuses on three key drivers of impact that inspire healthy youth development journeys: achievement, relationships, and belonging. YMCA programs and camps nurture and celebrate the social-emotional, cognitive, and physical development of all youth, resulting in the BEST SUMMER EVER! So join us on a summer journey at your favorite Y location. Or branch out and visit our new South Meridian Family YMCA, where parents and kids can race down slides in the exciting four-level, all-ages, family Adventure Zone play structure. We’ll see you here!

WHAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT A Y SUMMER?

ALL KIDS HAVE POTENTIAL. That’s why we support their social-emotional, cognitive, and physical development from craddle to career with holistic programs that don’t just close the achievement gap —they help kids realize who they are and all they can achieve.

5 / STROKE DEVELOPMENT Students in stage 5 work on stroke technique and learn all major competitive strokes. The emphasis on water safety continues through treading water and sidestroke.

A / WATER DISCOVERY Parents accompany children in stage A, which introduces infants and toddlers to the aquatic environment through exploration and encourages them to enjoy themselves while learning about the water.

1 / WATER ACCLIMATION In stage 1, students develop comfort with underwater exploration and learn to safely exit in the event of falling into a body of water. This stage lays the foundation that allows for a student’s future progress in swimming.

4 / STROKE INTRODUCTION Students in stage 4 develop stroke technique in front crawl and back crawl and learn the breaststroke kick and butterfly kick. Water safety is reinforced through treading water and elementary backstroke.

6 / STROKE MECHANICSIn stage 6, students refine stroke technique on all major competitive strokes, learn about competitive swimming, and discover how to incorporate swimming into a healthy lifestyle.

3 / WATER STAMINA In stage 3, students learn how to swim to safety from a longer distance than in previous stages in the event of falling into a body of water. This stage also introduces rhythmic breathing and integrated arm and leg action.

SWIM BASICS

SWIM STROKES

Accompanied by a parent, infants and toddlers learn to be comfortable in the water and develop swim readiness skills through fun and confidence- building experiences, while parents learn about water safety, drowning prevention, and the importance of supervision.

Students learn personal water safety and achieve basic swimming competency by learning two benchmark skills:

• Swim, float, swim—sequencing front glide, roll, back float, roll, front glide, and exit

• Jump, push, turn, grab

Having mastered the fundamentals, students learn additional water safety skills and build stroke technique, developing skills that prevent chronic disease, increase social, emotional and cognitive well-being, and foster a lifetime of physical activity.
