4.Do clients need to do a block booking and why?

Normally yes. With block booking, clients have consistency in the time of lessons and also the swim teacher.

5. Do you offer large group lessons?

No. We do offer private (1:1), semi-private(1:2) and small groups that have a maximum of 3 children per class.

6. For adults lessons, what are the options?

For adults we generally offer 1:1 lessons. Semi-private (1:2) swimming lessons could be offered to partners or friends who wish to share lessons with each other. We don’t offer groups lessons for adults.

7. Are the 1:2 (semi-private) lessons for children designed for children of the same family (siblings) or children from different families can also book semi-private lessons?

1:2 or semi-private lesson is a popular choice for siblings. Sometimes also friends also share lessons and book 1:2.
For example, if in one family, there are siblings who are a similar age and have similar swimming abilities, we can organise 1:2.
In general, the option of 1:2 lessons is ideal and popular for children of similar age and swimming abilities to share lessons.
But, 1:2 lessons are not just for children of one family.
If we can also find a child who is similar age to your child and also has swimming ability as your child, we can also offer booking 1:2 lessons.

Unfortunately, we don’t provide credit or catch-up lessons if clients miss lessons due to personal reasons like birthday parties or common sickness like cold. If clients don’t show up in our lessons, lessons are forfeited

10. Can clients book trial lessons before booking for the full term?

Yes, if we have availability, we could offer a one-off booking so, our trials are not free. After doing a one-off session, if you decide to continue, you need to block book.
