RECREATIONAL PROGRAMS

ABOUT OUR RECREATIONAL PROGRAMS

Olympium Artistic Swimming Club’s Recreational programs are designed to introduce and teach young swimmers about the exciting sport of Artistic Swimming in a fun team environment. Participants are introduced to fundamental skills, basic figures and various routine components. In addition, they will aim at improving their strength, coordination and flexibility. Classes are a combination of dry land training and water time giving swimmers a true taste of the sport. Everyone will have the opportunity to learn a routine to music, and be part of our club’s water show celebrations.

Who can register?

Our programs are best suited for swimmers in SK to Grade 5. Younger swimmers may be considered if they are confident in the water with an assistant.

Swimmers will register in a program based on their age. Swimmers should feel comfortable jumping into the deep end of the pool and willing to put their head under water.

What you’ll need?

  • Yoga mat or towel to stretch on
  • One piece bathing suit
  • Goggles
  • Nose Plug

    Coaches prefer metal ones (available for purchase at swim or sports stores such as Splashables or even Amazon)

Additional Registration Details

You must register with a platform called Interpodia/H20 PRIOR to the start of classes.  Information will be sent at the beginning of September.  
This is separate from our club registration through TeamSnap.  Interpodia/H20 registration is to have your Ontario Artistic Swimming (OAS) membership issued and to be covered under insurance.  It is extremely important that all Rec athletes be registered.  This was introduced by OAS for the 2022/23 season.  There is a small fee to register, and it will cover you from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2024.

FAQ

  • Programs must meet minimum registration numbers in order to run. If a class is cancelled due to low registration then you will receive a full refund, or you will also be given the opportunity to join another class if there is availability.
  • Registration is first come, first serve, so don’t wait if there is a time and location that works for you. Sign up as soon as possible, as some times and locations are more popular than others.
  • Once you register through Team Snap, you will be given direction on how to register through Interpodia. This registration is mandatory to participate in our programs as it insures our swimmers.

  • There is a small fee for Interpodia/H20 registration – it is ~$20/swimmer.  This is an annual fee from Ontario Artistic Swimming.
  • You may have to pay for items listed on required items, should you not already have any of them.
  • In the event of a cancelled class, we will do our best to provide a make-up class.
  • If classes are cancelled due to a lockdown, or Public Health changes, the cancelled practices will transfer to a club credit that can be used towards any future programming.
  • On occasion, we experience pool bumps due to facility events. We will relocate practices to another facility, and we will give as much notice as possible via TeamSnap. This may be at a different time or location.
  • If you wish to withdraw your child before programming starts, or after the first class you will receive a full refund, minus a $25 administrative fee. Withdrawals after that time will not receive a refund.
  • Unfortunately, we are unable to provide makeup classes for any reason.
  • Aqua Squirts has a maximum of 6 children per class.
  • Aqua Stars and Aqua Squads have a maximum of 8 children per class.
  • All classes have 1 certified coach plus a designated coach in training (CIT).
  • Typically we suggest that you register your child based on their age, but consideration can be made for swimmers based on a higher or lower skill level. Contact us for an evaluation or free trial class.
