  • There are no gravity restrictions in the water and limited mobility swimmers experience an amazing freedom & weightlessness in the pool. Water gives a wonderful feeling of deep relaxation
  • Swimming helps to improve cardio-respiratory fitness, muscular strength, and helps reduce body fat. Exercise also helps with confidence and self-esteem and reduces risk of injury

Learning to swim is a skill for life

Our classes are tailored to suit a range of special needs. We will cater for the needs of individual swimmers and you can choose from a variety of lessons;

  • Group Lesson - If children are able to be integrated into a mainstream class, max class size is reduced by one. When you book into a group lesson, that place is yours for the term. If you are unable to make your lesson and notify the swim school in advance, we will endeavour to offer you an alternative lesson. We are, however, unable to guarantee that the group class size will be reduced in an alternative lesson.
  • Private Lessons - where a private lesson is necessary, we can provide a one on one swimming lesson. The teacher will focus exclusively on your preferences for activities including swimming & stroke development, aquatic exercise, movement in water & relaxation. Carers welcome at no extra charge. Private lessons must be paid 1 week in advance & are held at the beginning or end of a teacher's shift. If notification of absence is received within two hours of the lesson, there is no charge for that lesson.
