Our swimming lessons for beginner tots are for children between the ages of 3 to 5. Our swim class sizes in Toronto for tots are offered at a 6 to 1 Swimmer to Instructor ratio. This ensures that each Swimmer will get the individual attention that they need. During our tot swim lessons parents are allowed to participate in these classes if they wish to.
