PRICES
Individual tuition - NO GROUP CLASSES!
I no longer offer bookings of 2 people together. If you are both interested, you will need to register and book sessions separately.
Courses/lesson durations cannot be changed once booked.
Prices include:
-
Cost to access a COMPLETELY PRIVATE POOL for EXCLUSIVE use (surcharge applies to meet for lessons at your own pool)
-
Access to hot shower/changing room facilities at leased pools.
-
FREE advice and FREE trial of a range of goggles at your first lesson, to ensure you buy the right pair to suit your face shape and needs (stock is also available to purchase at 1st lesson). Eye protection is recommended for your comfort and to build confidence quicker.
-
All teaching equipment (self-practice equipment is available to purchase).
How long does it take to learn to swim?
I always get asked this over the phone and it's impossible to answer without assessing you in the water!
It really depends on:
-
Your current ability and fitness
-
Your goals (to master one particular stroke or all strokes)
-
Your duration of lessons (30/45 mins)
-
Your frequency of lessons (once weekly or up to daily)
-
If you practice between lessons
-
Your own motivation and attitude
There is no "average" length of time! I would however say that after a block of 10 lessons, a complete beginner should have confidence in breath control, balance and movement in water (with or without flotation aids will depend on the individual).
