All instructors must have a recognised qualification, however it is normally just a 2 day course with around 10-20 hours of in-water supervised practice. We think this is totally inadequate, as teaching swimming properly involves understanding complex bio mechanical movements and establishing correct neurological motor programs that takes many years to accumulate.

​

We say we are a learn to swim properly school, we are not a learn to not drown school.

​

We teach absolutely the correct efficient technique, that will allow your child to swim easier and for longer distances. We are not looking to train you for competition (although that pathway is available) but we are training your child to understand and execute correct technique, so they can be safe as soon as possible.

All of our instructors are either current or past squad swimmers, this means that they have all had either 100's or 1000's of hours of training. Your children are trained by experts to help them become safe as soon as possible.

We would expect most children who start with us at the age of 5/6 to be able to swim 1-2km by the age of 8/9.

Please see the video of our instructors at one of our recent staff training sessions.

 

How good are the instructors where your child currently swim?
