The group lessons we offer are structured on the ASA National Plan and are aimed at developing your child's ability in a fun and relaxed way. Beginners classes have a maximum of six children in each group and improver classes have a maximum of 8. All classes are taught by fully qualified and experienced teachers in the water.
