Take a look at our roster of Winter Garden swim classes.

Turn, Kick, Reach® (TKR)

Our signature program, Turn, Kick, Reach® is a consecutive five-day program that teaches children all of the essential basics of how to safely move in the water. Your child will learn to hold their breath, put their face in the water, swim to the pool steps, and swim to the pool wall. The final stage of the five-day experience is focused on teaching children how to react if they fall in the water by turning back to where they fell, kicking their feet, reaching for the edge, and climbing out.

Ideal for children 9 months and up, Turn, Kick, Reach® is designed to introduce water maneuvering and safety to children as soon as they can crawl. While no child should ever be left near water unsupervised, this program helps children to know how to react in the event that they unexpectedly fall into the water. We consider Turn, Kick, Reach® to be an essential lifesaving course that can help to introduce a child to a safer, more prepared relationship with the water. Enroll at our Winter Garden swim school today for this program that has a 40-year track record of success!
