Cost
The National Swimming Safety Council has linked levels of swimming proficiency to National Swimming Diplomas. Your child does not meet the National Swim Safety Standard until swimming diploma C, with National Swimming Diplomas A and B being intermediate steps. These levels match the Dutch infrastructure of swimming waters where adults and children swim:
- Turbo A package: €550
- Turbo B or C package: €425
- Diploma fee: €75 (not included)
Should your child not be ready for the exam after 2 weeks, you can continue practising for free. However, we are confident that this will not be necessary!

What is Turbo Swimming?
Turbo swimming is an accelerated swimming course where children can get their swimming certificate in a shorter time. The intensive nature of the turbo course allows children to learn faster than in traditional swimming lessons. Turbo lessons are ideal for children who already have a basic knowledge of swimming and want to improve their skills in a shorter time. Turbo swimming is also perfect for children who don't have that much time but want to get their diploma. We offer swimming lessons at different levels, from beginners to advanced.
Swimming lessons and Turbo lessons
Our swimming lessons are specially designed for children of different ages and levels. We offer both regular swimming lessons and turbo lessons that speed up the learning process. Turbo lessons are more intensive and last shorter, so your child will learn to swim faster and achieve the swimming certificate within at least a few months. We understand that every child is unique, which is why we also offer private lessons. In private lessons, we can work fully at your child's level, making learning even more effective.
With our diploma guarantee, you can rest assured that your child will get his or her diploma, provided there is active participation in the turbo lessons. If your child does not achieve the desired results, we offer the option of further intensifying the lessons. We work with the best swimming coaches in Amsterdam who are fully committed to your child's success.
How do swimming lessons work?
Our turbo lessons consist of intense but fun workouts tailored to your child's level. Every child has their own pace, and our swim coaches adjust the lessons accordingly. This way, we can ensure that your child not only feels comfortable, but also learns to swim faster. All this happens in a safe environment, focusing on both technique and fun in the water.
Our swimming lessons and turbo lessons are offered at different levels, from beginners to children who need to improve their final swimming skills to get their swimming certificate. Each level has its own set of exercises and goals, so your child progresses step by step. This makes it easier to keep track of where your child is and which skills still need to be practised.
