Improvers / Novices

Improvers – these sessions are for children, typically aged 8 and over, who are confident in the water, and can swim at minimum of 25 metres. The aim of these sessions will be to promote safety, reinforce confidence skills, and improve front crawl, back crawl, and breaststroke.

Novices – during covid many children missed out on swimming lessons and we’ve found that the return to swimming can sometimes be ‘uncool’ as the child gets older. We keep it ‘cool’, fun and progressive.

Nervous swimmers. At NFSA we understand that some children have fears and barriers with water (as do many adults). If you feel that your child will respond better to lessons with you being in the water with them then please do let us know and if we have space for you to join in the session with your child, we will invite you to do so at no extra cost. You can even have a post swim biscuit!
