Weekly swim classes designed for beginners to build strong swim foundations and learn front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke – the right way.

Beginner swimmers age 5 and up learn basic aquatic movements along and the basics of the front crawl, breaststroke, and backstroke. Our swim classes for beginners emphasise mastering the basic building blocks of these strokes through specific, targeted drills.

Trained and certified in swim instruction as well as play-based and child-centered practices, our coaches are passionate about creating learning experiences designed to meet kids where they are and build their swim technique in a way that’s structured, progressive, and fun!

What Beginner Swimmers Learn:

  • Basic aquatic movements
  • Drills to master the components of key strokes – including the single arm swim, side flutter kick, and sculling movements
  • The front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke

Kids who complete the programme will be able to swim 25 meters of each of the 3 strokes above before progressing to the intermediate courses.
