World-class Swimming Lessons

While we advocate that your child should be constantly supervised and within an arm’s reach when they’re around deep water, we understand that sometimes accidents happen. Helping your child become a safer swimmer is a crucial life-skill and statistics show that participating in regular formal lessons decreases the risk of drowning by up to 88%. At Paul Sadler Swimland, we’re here to help!

We understand that kids swimming lessons can be life-saving, but they are also LOTS of fun. From baby swimming lessons through to our kids learn to swim programs, we approach each lesson with the goal of helping children develop important swimming and survival skills in an exciting, engaging, and stress-free way. 

We recommend that children attend at least weekly lessons to help build their confidence in the water and develop their swimming skills. For further information about our kids swimming lessons, check out our parent/ child program for children aged 4 months to 3 years, or our learn to swim program for children over 3 years old.

Participating in a swimming lesson isn’t just for children. According to recent research, 1 in 4 adults in Australia have limited swimming experience or are unable to swim at all. To help remedy this statistic, we offer adult swimming lessons at our locations. 

At Paul Sadler Swimland we believe that swimming is for everyone and that no one needs to be embarrassed of their skill level. Our team will treat you with the kindness, empathy, and respect that you deserve as you learn to swim or refine your technique. 

No matter your age or skill level, Paul Sadler Swimland can help you make significant progress in the pool and become a confident swimmer.

Some swimmers need a little extra support to gain their water confidence and develop their skills. At Paul Sadler Swimland we ensure that every swimmer is able to learn and progress at their own pace, but we are also conscious of the extra care required by any special needs swimmers in our classes. 

Our team has great experience ensuring swimmers with special needs feel supported in the swimming pool, and engaged throughout every lesson. We also offer private lessons for any swimmers who need that one-on-one interaction as they learn.

When you book in to our swimming lessons for children aged 3 and up, the first step we take is to sign your child up to a free swimming assessment. The reason we assess our swimmers is to ensure that they will be placed in the most appropriate class for their current skill level. 

Our swim instructors assess swimmers by observing factors such as:

• Their confidence in the water
• Their motor skills 
• Their swimming strokes
• Their survival skills 

While these factors are considered for our Learn to Swim program, in our Parent/ Child program, a swimmer’s age-group plays an important role in the level they are placed in. 

Once a child is in a level, they will be assessed each lesson by our team until they are deemed to have mastered the skills of their current level. We allow our swimmers to build confidence at their own pace, and do not force them to progress through the levels before they are ready, nor will they hang around in a level waiting for a set amount of time. When children are ready they will be moved to the next level.
