For intermediate swimmers ready to take on their next challenge: our 90-min Development classes promises to refine their swim technique, build their endurance, and get them excited about their future in the water!

Train like a competitive swimmer, without the pressure: lessons includes 20 mins of land-based strength and conditioning, and an introduction to competitive elements such as dives and turns. Join coaches and squadmates to take part in entry level meets, such as Pesta Sukan and SSPA! Beyond competitive swimming, swimmers will also be prepared for other pathways in aquatic sports, be it water polo, diving or artistic swimming.
