Class Structure

Beginners

  • Duration: 30 minutes
  • Class Size: 4 swimmers

Beginner childrens’ classes are 30 minutes with a maximum of 4 swimmers per class. Our teachers are in the water with all our beginners. We focus primarily on building confidence in the water and aim to get everyone swimming as quickly as possible. Above all, our lessons are fun and relaxed.

Intermediates

  • Duration: 30 minutes
  • Class Size: 4 swimmers

Intermediate childrens’ classes are also 30 minutes with a maximum of 4 swimmers per class. Our teachers may be in or out the water and we focus on teaching excellent technique in all four strokes, as well as a range of water and safety skills such as diving, snorkelling and life saving.

Advanced

  • Duration: 60 minutes
  • Class Size: 6-8 swimmers

Our advanced childrens’ classes are 60 minutes with a maximum of 8 pupils in each class. These lessons focus on developing and improving stroke technique whilst building stamina (a big chunk of the lesson is endurance work). We also teach competitive starts and turns for each of the four strokes, as well as more advanced water safety skills.
