Lessons at Balfour Swimming School
Foundation Classes
Our foundation classes are divided into two groups Beginners and Intermediate. These classes are designed for children who are new to swimming or still building confidence in the water. We focus on developing essential skills such as floating, kicking and basic water safety. These lessons provide supportive environment where children can learn at their own pace.
Â
If your child in a non-swimmer we have 'rocket packs' that are used instead of armbands, these attach to the swimmers back and provide floatation without interfering with their arms.
Â
There will be a minimum of two trained personnel in the pool, this will be their teacher and trained assistants.

Pre-Squad is ideal for swimmers who have mastered the basics and ready to develop more advanced techniques. We work on improving stroke efficiency, stamina and overall water confidence. This programme prepares children for the next level swimming,
