Our swim teachers are highly qualified and backed up by John Sugden with 30 years of experience. We’ve developed unique swimming programs and taught swimming classes for athletes and swimmers. Our trained and qualified teachers make sure that your child becomes a proficient swimmer by the end of this program learning all the water safety skills and techniques required to be a great swimmer.
Our step-by-step method breaks down the complexity of learning to swim so that our students never become frustrated or fearful. These small steps make each individual swimming skill easy and fun to learn. All of our instructors have attained the AustSwim Swim Teachers’ Certificate, and have also completed our comprehensive training program – one that ensures our students have the skills and confidence to be fully safe and proficient in the water.
Come see why John Sugden Swim School is the best choice to teach both children and adults alike.
Teaching all four strokes together encourages quicker adaptation and skill development. Similar to how a child can learn multiple languages more easily at a young age, the brain is more adaptable when exposed to diverse movements and techniques simultaneously. This approach builds muscle memory and coordination across all strokes, helping swimmers become more versatile and confident in the water.
We conduct official assessments once a term by a teacher, and they are assessed at all times throughout the term.
Our focus is to develop all skills irrespective of starting point. This means working on new techniques, whilst still maintaining and refining the skills they can do well.
Our philosophy is “The sooner the better, and it’s never too late”. The majority of students who start at a very young age will master the water and be able to navigate pools on their own before long. We encourage lessons to start as early in a childs development sometimes children, as they get older, experience anxiety and emotional obstacles. As a child grows and becomes a teenager or an adult, they will often find that it is more of a struggle to learn to swim because of the mental hurdles they must overcome. However, an open mind, commitment and expert coaching often leads to great success.
Lessons per term depend on the regular school terms and will vary each year.
