The classes at Cairns Learn to Swim are divided into three levels: beginners, intermediate, and advanced. The club provides detailed information on the key skills and expectations for each level. When booking, the instructors will discuss with parents or guardians the best level for their child, ensuring that they are placed in an appropriate class. The club also offers adult classes, which can be booked as private or small group sessions, catering to beginners through to triathletes looking for additional swimming analysis and training support.
For parents with babies and toddlers, Cairns Learn to Swim offers water confidence sessions throughout the year at Home Pool. These sessions focus on introducing children to the water and building their water skills. Through songs, chants, and carefully planned cues, parents can familiarise their children with water and gradually introduce them to new skills. The club even offers Duckling certificates to celebrate achievements along the path of progress.
The beginners' class is the initial level for children who can confidently follow basic instructions and participate in a class without their parent or guardian. Some of the top skills that the club focuses on for beginners include following directions, entering and exiting the water safely, torpedo/rocket gliding, submerging under water to collect toys, and various floating, travelling, and swimming techniques.
