Our program incorporates many songs, games and activities to make each lesson stimulating and enjoyable.
We strongly believe in teaching to the individual needs of each child at a pace which suits them. This helps to ensure your child gets the most from their swimming lessons. All pools we use for our baby programme are heated to at least 31 degrees to ensure your child is comfortable in the water.

Babies can be taught to swim from Birth. Children are welcome to join our swim programme from 3 months. Skills such as breath control, submersion, and free floating are all taught in this level. These classes are a great opportunity to bond with your child on the start of their swimming journey.

As your child becomes more mobile on land this helps them to initiate movement through the water. Skills such as kicking and paddle movements with a woggle, turning towards the wall, as well safe entries and exits will be the focus for these classes.
