The swimming school is intended for children who have not yet had the opportunity to learn how to swim the 3 strokes (backstroke, breaststroke, freestyle). For children aged 4 and over, we offer classes twice a week for an initial introductory phase.
The ultimate goal for this year is to acquire the fundamentals in all 3 strokes, necessary for optimal future improvement. In order to provide the best possible teaching, groups are limited to 16 swimmers.
The fundamental skills are assessed in the third term through an aquatic course: the Pass’Poséidon. Passing this test allows the swimmer to continue their learning in the EP1, EP2, and EP3 groups of the “Enfants de Poséidon“, our four-stroke improvement swimming school (butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle).
