Water Confidence: Babies and Toddlers
Our Baby and Toddler swimming syllabus is designed to help little ones get comfortable in the water while having fun. Through playful activities and gentle exercises, we focus on water acclimation, floating, and basic water safety. Each class provides a warm, nurturing environment where children can build confidence in the pool.
A parent or guardian must join in the pool with the child, ensuring comfort and creating a special bonding experience. Our instructors guide you through every step, making it enjoyable and safe for both of you.
For hygiene, all babies and toddlers must wear a waterproof swim nappy. Classes are held in our warm, indoor heated pool, perfect for year-round learning. Join us to start your child on a lifelong love of swimming!

Stroke School
Our Stroke School program is perfect for swimmers who have mastered the basics and are ready to advance their skills. In this class, we focus on developing and refining the four main strokes: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. We also introduce resting strokes to ensure swimmers have a comprehensive understanding of each technique.
With detailed instruction and hands-on practice, swimmers will learn the mechanics of each stroke, improving both their efficiency and speed in the water. Our experienced instructors provide personalized feedback to help every swimmer enhance their technique, whether they are aiming for personal improvement or preparing for competitive swimming.
