Advantage Adult Swim School offers 4 levels of adult classes, our swimming framework understands that adults have very different needs to children when learning to swim. Adults have different motivations, learn in different ways and have completely different needs to children learning to swim.

 

We believe that every person should have a chance to learn to swim and become the very best swimmer they can be, which is why our adult lessons give a very specific set of aims and targets.

 

The Advantage Adult Swim School has a syllabus with clear aims and objectives, which help swimmers, start to become competent and confident in their ability in the water.

 

It caters for every type of adult swimmer, including those who are unable to swim at all, beginners and those who are nervous about swimming. There is also support for swimmers who are coming back to swimming after a break or just those who want to improve their technique.

 

Confident swimmers are given the opportunity to improve all of the four strokes, go into the competitive side of swimming or to join a Masters club, which are aimed at adults over the age of 18.

 

If you are serious about your swimming then there are 4 Adult Learn to Swim levels to work towards.  Our 4  stages are: 

 

STAGE 1 - Be Water Confident – this level is about gaining the confidence to enter the pool safely. It also covers the ability to move around the pool with confidence and to achieve basic core aquatic skills. These are entries, exits, buoyancy, balance and aquatic breathing.

 

STAGE 2 - Be a Swimmer – by the time you earn this level you will have the necessary skills to start swimming independently over short distances (5 to 10 meters). You won’t need support or swimming aids

 

STAGE 3  Be a Better Swimmer – by this point you’ll be able to swim up to 400 meters independently. You’ll also have the confidence to try other pool activities, such as Aqua Fitness or lane swimming.

 

STAGE 4  Be a Master Swimmer – gaining this level means you can confidently enter the Masters section of a swimming club (find more on Masters swimming here). It’s about more advanced swimming skills to enable you to compete.
