Schoolage Lessons

We run a maximum of two school age classes at once, with a lane rope separating the two classes.  School age lessons have a  maximum of four in the class and are for 30minutes duration.  We focus on technique with feedback being frequently given due to the layout of our classes.  We take your children from water confidence right through to mastering the skills needed to progress to a club or have the skill of swimming all four strokes for life.

SNAPPY SWORDFISH L1 These lessons are for beginners and focus on enjoying the water and building under water confidence.  On the water propulsion and water safety skills are introduced.

KIND KINGFISH L2 These lessons focus on the key swimming skills of gliding, kicking and body position and aim to develop an independent back kick to keep our swimmers safe in the water.

PLAYFUL PIRANHAS L3 These lessons develop Backstroke arms which are combined with the Back kick.  Freestyle swimming skills also continue to be developed in preparation for breathing in the next level.

DIVING DOLPHINS JE1 Classes are structured to refine techinique in all four strokes aiming for fluent Freestyle, Backstroke, Breaststroke and Butterfly.  These lessons start to focus on increasing Freestyle and Backstroke endurance swims to 100m as the finer aspects of these strokes are developed.  Breaststroke should now be together with a good glide, small arms and kick snap.  Butterfly breathing is developed and tumble turns are expected during endurance swims of up to 100m.

WICKED WHALES JE2 All strokes are refined to a club level with drills.  Swimmers aim to complete a solid medley of Freestyle, Backstroke, Breaststroke and Butterfly with tumble turns. Endurance swims of 200m are incorporated into all lessons to enable swimmers to competently achieve the ultimate Swim for Life goal of 200m Freestyle.
