PRIVATE LESSONS
We organize swimming schools for customers of all ages and skill levels. However, if you do not want to attend group lessons or they do not fit your schedule, you can book a private swimming lesson customized to your needs. The schedule, objectives and teaching location will be agreed upon with the instructor. You can come individually, in pairs or with a group, and book one or more teaching sessions. The better you know how to swim, the more you will enjoy it!
Customized private lessons
We offer private swimming lessons based on your previous skillset and learning preferences. You will receive comprehensive, personal feedback on your swimming technique and gain an efficient learning experience. Alternatively, the lessons can also concentrate on beginners’ skills and basics such as breathing exercises.
Additionally, we offer private swimming lessons for children. We recommend that at least one parent will participate the lessons with the child. This way both the child and parent will benefit from the lesson and the parent can later continue the child’s teaching.
Private teaching enables more efficient learning
Examples of groups that could benefit from private teaching:
• Timid children (5 years and over)
Fear of water manifests itself, for example, in the fact that the child moves very carefully in the water and refuses to dive. When a timid child wants to be part of a swimming school group, extra private instruction can help them move forward.
In addition, there are children for whom school swimming produces stress because they do not know how to swim very well or at all. As they learn the technique a little better, swimming lessons start to feel comfortable too.
• Children requiring guidance with technique
A child may be interested in joining a swimming school, for example, or they are in one, but their swimming skills require improvement. In such cases, the parents may hire a swimming technique teacher who will help develop the child's swimming skills further.
• Adults requiring guidance with technique
Customized teaching for adults that wish to improve a certain swimming technique (freestyle or breaststroke, for example). Classes are also available in English.
• Triathletes
Those practicing with the help of private instructor will receive customized tips, both for their swimming technique and training.
