Meet our Adult Stroke Development Swimming Lesson Instructors
When can I start with my swimming lessons?
We’d love for you to start swimming as soon as possible!
To get started, please complete our Registration Pack , including the signup and indemnity forms, and schedule your swimming lesson(s) with our office.
Then, you’ll be ready to start!
Am I not too old to learn to swim?
Learning has absolutely no age limit, and we encourage all swimmers to challenge themselves to take on new adventures and try new experiences.
Do you offer trial lessons?
We do not offer trial lessons, as our instructors invest significant time into each swimmer’s individual lesson plan.
However, we do provide a satisfaction guarantee, and you are welcome to pay after your first lesson.
Am I able to take a break from swimming?
We don’t recommend taking a break from learning any skill as it disrupts the learning cycle needed for progression. If you absolutely have to take a break, then please let the office know so that your lesson credits can be placed on hold.
We are fortunate to have an indoor and heated swimming pool facility. We don’t encourage winter breaks because they do break the learning cycle, and we’ve found that swimmers who take an extended break often need to re-learn key foundation skills and confidence in the water before they continue with new skill acquisition.
How much are the swimming lesson fees?
We have a 4, 10 or 20 lesson-package pricing structure. Please request an updated swimming lesson pricelist on our contact page, or using the form below.
Who will my instructor be?
Our qualified and highly experienced instructors each work on specific days of the week.
This means that you may experience more than one instructor if you’re coming for swimming lessons on different days of the week.
Our lesson plans are structured so that a similar weekly lesson outcome is achieved from all instructors, but they may be delivered slightly differently depending on the instructor for the day.
What equipment do I need for my first lesson?
Our standard equipment requirement applies for all swimming lessons:
First swimming lesson equipment requirements
How many swimmers are in one group lesson?
Swimmers are limited to a maximum of 4 per lesson in the big pool.
We’ve found these class sizes offer maximum learning opportunity for swimmers through peer demonstration and rest time.
We do however try spread swimming lesson bookings evenly so that class sizes are limited.
Can I use Intermediate or Advanced Adult swimming lessons just to get fit?
Yes of course. Our lesson are structured and tailored so the 30 minute session is as intense as you’d like it to be.
How will you know which level of swimming I'm best suited for?
Our admin staff will recommend the best lesson type for you based on your previous experience.
During your first session, our instructors will then confirm if that level is the perfect fit. If there is a mismatch, we will reschedule your sessions to a lesson type that better suits your abilities.
We try our best to group swimmers with similar abilities; however, we cannot always guarantee perfect placement as it is often subject to swimmers’ availability.
How long will it take to swim all four strokes?
There is no set formula for learning to swim. Learning to swim is a long-term process that requires a commitment to regular practice. Every swimmer progresses at their own rate and will learn the required swimming skills for their swimming level.
Can I book swimming lessons with my friends / siblings / family members?
Absolutely. We encourage swimmers to learn with people they know.
We can certainly accommodate group bookings as long as there is enough space in the lessons.
What do I do once I've learned all four strokes?
Don’t let Stars’ be your limitation.
Feel free to show off your new swimming skills in all kinds of settings: you could improve your fitness with lap swimming in longer pools, you can explore Club-level swimming and team up with a Master Swimming Club, You can participate in Open Water Swimming events, and even when on holiday!
Do you offer Aqua Aerobics classes?
Yes, although we’re focussed on teaching Learn to Swim, we also offer an aqua aerobics class.
