Fun and safety come first!
First and foremost, we focus on making your child comfortable in the water through playful activities until your son or daughter feels relaxed and free from fear. Additionally, we gradually develop the four swimming strokes: elementary backstroke, breaststroke, front crawl, and back crawl. We also dedicate a lot of attention to exercises in deeper water, such as entering the water, swimming underwater, climbing and clambering on a raft, diving to the bottom, and swimming with clothes on. Our approach involves teaching, practicing, and conditioning. This way, your child will embark on a journey to swimming proficiency with enjoyment and pleasure.
Every last class of the month, we organize clothing swimming following the guidelines. For the C diploma, this activity takes place weekly.
