Private swimming lessons in Amsterdam

Individual attention

Swimming Club ABC also gives private lessons. This means we give 1-on-1 or 1-on-2 lessons, which allows for more individual attention.

The smaller a group, the more attention, so wrong moves are quickly spotted and quickly corrected. Wrong movements have no chance to 'creep in'. From the water, the instructor can again give instruction in a different way than just from the shore, working on self-confidence and good fitness.

For private swimming lessons, once your child has reached the final level they will move on for selection and trial swimming.
