Adult Swim Lessons

Beginner

If you’ve never had swimming lessons and feel a bit worried about the water – don’t worry, we’ve got your back!

In our beginner lessons we start from scratch – so you can build confidence and you don’t need to have any experience to be able to get started. Our expert teachers will be with you in the water to guide you through  basic water familiarisation, which includes breath regulation, flotation, kicking, body position/control – all important steps to develop strokes later on in our program.

Survival techniques are an important part of our entire program, so in these beginner classes we will introduce you to treading water, jumping in and how to recover to the side of the pool.

Our lessons are catered to the individuals in the class. You can be comfortable that you will be at a similar ability to others in the class!

Intermediate

If you have a little more experience with the water or have been through our beginner program, and feel ready to start bringing together all the parts of freestyle and backstroke as well as gaining real confidence in deep water then this is the class for you!

At this level we will start to develop your breathing technique and put together formal swimming strokes! Our expert teachers will be with you in the water to  teach you backstroke and freestyle to start with and then  breaststroke as you develop in skill and confidence. We will also continue to develop your survival skills,  building your treading water skills to 2 mins non-stop!

Also at this stage, for those who would like to learn how to dive, we will introduce diving in a simple and progressive way from kneeling first and then into standing.

PLUS, of course you’ll have lots of fun along the way!

Advanced

If you’ve been through our beginner and intermediate programs, you’ll then progress into our advanced lessons. For those entering our program at this point, these lessons are for you if you are comfortable in the water, understand the basics of the strokes, but never quite refined your skills and would now like to correct and improve your ability.

This level will be catered to the individuals so you reach your individual goals within the lessons. This level can accommodate swimmers looking to build on their distance and can include butterfly development for interested swimmers. We encourage ALL of our swimmers to reach their Swordy 1km medal and complete our Open Water Experience and our team are ready and excited to help you reach these amazing milestones.

Swimming lessons are for everyone!

A recent Royal Life Saving Australia survey found that around 25% of Australian adults would label themselves as weak swimmers, or can’t swim at all. That’s one in four Aussies who would struggle to save themselves in a water emergency.

Research also shows that many adults who can’t swim choose not to learn out of embarrassment. 

At Paul Sadler Swimland, we believe that swimming lessons are for everyone! Everybody should be able to feel safe and confident in the water, and it’s never too late to learn. 

Our great team is ready to help any adults who are seeking to learn, develop, or perfect their swimming and deep water survival skills. Why not find the location closest to you and book an adult swim lesson now?

Each Paul Sadler Swimland swim teacher has an extensive amount of training and experience which they apply with passion into each lesson.

In an adult swimming class we work on basic swimming skills such as:

  • Breath control
  • Basic strokes
  • Stroke technique and stroke development
  • Floating on back
  • Blowing bubbles

However, in our swim programs we also focus on important water safety skills like:

  • Safety circle
  • Swimming without goggles
  • Deep water work
  • Mobility on front
  • Stroke correction
  • Mobility on back
  • Treading water
  • Safe exiting and entering of swimming pool
  • Open Water Swims

While our typical adult classes are taught in small groups, we also offer private swim lessons for adults.

If you need extra support while learning water safety skills and improving your swimming ability, our teachers can help with private lessons. By signing up to our private swimming lessons for adults you’ll get the personalised one-on-one teaching that you require to learn how to swim stress-free. In a private lesson, we can look closely at your basic swimming strokes or basic water safety skills, giving you the kickstart you need to find your water confidence and progress to the next level.
