Why Swimable?
We pride ourselves on effective swimming tuition, providing students with personable interaction, direction and consistency. The program is closely monitored and updated regularly with our instructors trained to ensure our teaching philosophy is carried across the entire program.
Focus On Correct Technique?
Our program is based on teaching the correct technique for all four competitive strokes. This provides the opportunity for any student to progress through to squad and club swimming level where technique is of paramount importance. This is in contrast to many programs that measure progress by timed swims, distance achievement or time spent at particular levels – none of which are a measure of quality.
Minimal Use Of Floatation Devices
We believe that floaties, rubber rings and bubble belts only serve to provide students with a false sense of security in the water. Our program aims to ensure our students are competent swimmers who can get themselves to safety if they accidentally fall into the water.
Consistent Method Of Teaching
All of our instructors undergo regular training workshops, supervision and assessment to ensure a consistent method of instruction. This ensures that all students receive consistent instructions and technique development, regardless of which instructor or level. Our instructors are required to commit to the full term (other than unavoidable illness) to ensure a level of consistency is achieved so that students are not confused by conflicting instructions and a trusting relationship can be developed with instructors. All of our instructors are AUSTSWIM/SCTA/LSV and CPR qualified. All employees hold valid Working With Children checks and are required to sign and abide by both Swimable’s Child Safety and Cultural Safety and St Mary’s Codes of Conduct. They are also required to abide by Swimable’s Child Safety and Cultural Safety Policies.
Programs For All Standards
From infants to competitive squad training, we offer programs to suit all levels and interests. We place an emphasis on technique, fun, fitness and a positive environment that facilitates students’ education. Students are told why they perform particular skills, ensuring that they understand the tasks rather than just following instructions.
Limited Class Sizes
Class sizes are limited to numbers that maximises a child’s participation in the nominated level.
