Breakdown of Our Swim Adults Syllabus

Our swimming lessons for adults are tailored to your needs and skill levels while incorporating essential skills necessary for safe and effective swimming. Here are some of the key skills that may be included:

Water Familiarisation

As an adult, you may have different reasons for learning to swim, such as overcoming a fear of water, improving your health and fitness, or preparing for a specific water-based activity or sport. The lessons will focus on helping you develop water familiarisation skills to increase your comfort and confidence in the water. Our coaches will also work with you to identify your goals and tailor the lessons accordingly.

Breathing Techniques

You will learn different breathing techniques to help you swim more efficiently and effectively. This will involve learning to exhale while underwater, practising rhythmic breathing patterns, and improving your lung capacity and breath control.

Floating and Buoyancy Techniques

You will learn different floating and buoyancy techniques to improve your balance and stability in the water. You will practice floating on your back or stomach, learn various body positions to maintain buoyancy, and understand how to adjust your body to control your buoyancy.

Arm Strokes and Kicking Techniques

You will learn different arm strokes and kicking techniques to help you move through the water more efficiently and effectively. Your instructor may teach you different strokes, such as freestyle, Breaststroke, backstroke, and butterfly, and work with you to develop your technique and form. You will also learn various kicking techniques, such as flutter kicks, dolphin kicks, and scissor kicks, to improve your propulsion in the water.

Endurance Training

How Swim2u Provides a Stress-Free Lesson for Adults

As an adult learner with Swim2u, you may feel intimidated by the prospect of learning to swim. We understand this and have developed several strategies to help ensure that you have a stress-free learning experience.

Individualised Approach

Swim2u will take an individualised approach to your lessons. Your classes will be tailored to your needs and skill level, ensuring you feel comfortable and confident in the water.

Supportive Instructors

At Swim2u, our coaches aim to create a safe and welcoming environment for adult learners. They are patient and supportive and encourage you throughout the learning process to help you feel comfortable.

Small Class Sizes

With Swim2u, you can enjoy small class sizes. This ensures that you receive more individual attention and support from the instructor, contributing to a stress-free learning experience.

Gradual Progression

In our swim lessons for adults, you will notice that the syllabus is structured in a way that gradually builds on your previous progress. This approach enables you to advance at your own pace, reducing any potential stress or pressure from learning a new skill.

Focus On Relaxation

We place emphasis on relaxation and breathing techniques to ensure a stress-free learning experience for you as an adult learner. Focusing on these techniques can reduce stress and anxiety in the water, making your learning experience more enjoyable and less stressful.

Preparing for Your Child’s First Swim Adult Lesson: What to Expect

Preparing for your first lesson with Swim2u as an adult can be exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time. To help you feel more at ease, here are some tips on what to expect and how to prepare:

Wear Appropriate Swimwear
Choose comfortable swimwear that fits you well and allows for easy movement in the water. Modesty is also essential to help you feel more confident and secure during the lesson. 

Benefits of Swimming for Adults

Improves Mental Health

When you are in the water, you are unable to use any form of technology. Most people feel relaxed and less stressed when they are in the water. If you’re one to deal with anxiety often, swimming can help you with that and ease your mind.

Sleep Better

You will have better sleep quality when you swim often. Like other forms of cardio, swimming ensures that your body receives the appropriate exercise, which leads to longer sleep duration.

Learn Something New

If you enjoy a particular swimming style, such as the Breaststroke, you can learn another form and perfect it. Not only will you have picked up a new way of swimming, but you will also feel accomplished with this achievement.
