Private & Semi- Private Lessons

Our private and semi-private swim lessons are designed for children and adults of all ages and skill levels. Whether you’re stepping into the water for the very first time, working through fear after a near-drowning experience, or fine-tuning your stroke mechanics for triathlon training or fitness swimming, our personalized approach ensures your needs come first.

We offer flexible booking options to fit into your busy schedule, making it easier than ever to commit to your goals. Each lesson provides individualized focus from our experienced instructors, helping you gain confidence, improve technique, and enjoy the water at your own pace.

With one-on-one attention or the shared encouragement of a semi-private setting, you’ll experience faster progress, increased comfort, and tailored instruction that meets you exactly where you are.
