Medical research confirms that newborns participation in swimming lessons for babies have a beneficial effect on the physical condition and nervous system from the birth. Early exposure to swimming contributes not only to better health but also to the development of extremely important skills of behavior in the water. Participation in swim lessons normalizes sleep (which is especially important for hyperactive children), improves appetite, strengthens the cardiovascular system, develops the respiratory system, and also increases endurance. Swimming is especially useful for toddlers with muscle hypertonicity, as the muscles gradually relax in the water.

Our infant swim lessons will provide parents with active leisure time with their child and at the same time help them adapt quicker to the water. Our instructors lead toddler swim classes using our unique SwimRight® Method, focusing on teaching key fundamental skills for water adaptation and safety. All of our infant swim classes take place in a fun, inclusive setting, with songs and active games as the primary tools for learning. You can see for yourself how effective and simple our teaching methodology is and visit our free trial class.

We at SwimRight Academy believe optimal age to start swimming lessons is as young as 3 months. However when children begin to move more actively and explore their boundaries learning how to walk, this could be ideal time to consider enrolling them in swim lessons. Thus, toddlers can be considered ideal visitors for swimming lessons.

Unlike the vast majority of public pools, we do not use harsh chemicals to purify and disinfect the water, as the majority of our students are small children. At the same time, our water complies with all sanitary standards, so you get absolute confidence that your child will be healthy after classes in our pool.

Our little students are required to wear special swimming caps, which are given out by our academy during trail class. These caps are color-coded to help our coaches identify the level of each child in our program and understand their capabilities and limitations in the water.

Our swimming classes for babies range between 20 and 30 minutes. Goal to make sure kids have a great, engaging experience, stay focused and don't get too overwhelmed. At the same time, we make sure they receive the necessary set of knowledge and skills to learn how to be watersafe.

At all depends on your comfort level. If this is your first time swimming with a toddler, its recommended that you enroll in classes when you are in the water with them at all times. Our teaching instructor will be present in the water to help your child acquire basic skills in the water. As for our advanced classes, you have two options; continue being in the pool with your child or transition them to private lessons.
