1.Infant Swim Lessons
Every Baby Has An Opportunity to Become a Water Baby!For Ages 4 - 24 Months OldA child will grow more at ease and independent the sooner they learn the independence of buoyancy and underwater swimming.There are more than 70 neonatal reflexes present at birth. They are capable of responding to stimuli with motor actions. Babies need sufficient direction to learn new voluntary movement patterns in order to explore the water in a safe and enjoyable setting since most newborn reflexes wane over the first six months. Babies may exercise while swimming, which promotes the development of their balance, coordination, lung capacity, and motor skills. According to research, early exposure to swimming aids the infant in developing a feeling of self-worth, confidence, and independence. Additionally, it aids in the development of reading and numeracy.Our water programme is intended for infants between the ages of 4 months and 2 years. Babies will learn how to enter the water securely, hold their breath while submerged, push themselves to the pool's edge, and then safely exit the water.

2.Toddler Swim Lessons
Splashing Fun Swimming Lessons for Age 2 & AboveIs my kid too young to learn swimming? Nope, the younger the better. Toddlers aged 2-5 years old are arguably the best age to start learning swimming. They may not be able to learn the structured swim strokes, but obtaining strong foundation skills at this age would be the most ideal for future progression. Foundation skills include being confident in the water without aid, understanding the importance of water safety, basic limb movements required for swim strokes and body control in the water. With most of their body weight supported by the water, they can learn how to balance and control their movement which will enhance their coordination and make the technique more familiar in future swimming lessons. This is also the age where toddlers start to interact with people around their age.

3.Kid Swim Classes
Fun and Engaging Lessons for Aged 6–16 years oldThis is the age group where kids evolve the most, where they start exploring and socialising with other kids their age. So why not put this positive and exciting energy into a sport where it could make them stronger, healthier and even possibly save their life in the future. This will be perfect for kids who have past experience being in the water with basic fundamentals such as knowing how to move in water and confidence in moving around on their own before they start learning the structure of swimming strokes and skills for survival. If your kid is in this age group and is experiencing being in the water for the first time, there’s no need to worry about their fear of being slower than others who started when they were toddlers.

4.SwimSafer 2.0
We do not focus on the SwimSafer 2.0 requirements in our lessons but instead teach them the basics to swimming, in order to prepare them for the SwimSafer test. SwimSafer is a national water safety program developed to raise the standard of swimming proficiency in Singapore. Created specially for children below 16 years old, this program will help evolve your child from a non-swimmer into a good swimmer. The SwimSafer programme aims to teach swimming proficiency and water survival skills to children to minimize drowning incidents in a fun manner. This is the only program recognised by all schools, institutions and water-related sports (e.g. kayaking, scuba diving) in Singapore.We will prepare students for SwimSafer 2.0 (Bronze and above) when they are proficient in swimming a longer distance.
