About Us

Our goal is to nurture a passion and appreciation for the sport of swimming in our students through the provision of high-standard technical caoching. The lessons are tailored to the specific needs of our students, and we offer private (one-on-one) lessons, or semi-private (two-three swimmers). All children over the age of 5 and adults are welcome!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ideal age for my child to start private swimming lessons?

How often should my child be training to see improvement?
For children aged 5 to 14, a 30 minute lesson a week is enough to see good progress in their abilities.

This varies by child but generally, one or two terms is enough for a child to be capable of swimming confidently and safely on their own.
