SWIMMING LESSONS
AT NUSPORT
The NUsport Swim Academy provides a comprehensive range of learning and development programs that cater to individuals of all ages, from six months to adults. Our academy offers a bright, happy, and safe environment where participants can thrive.
At the NUsport Swim Academy, we prioritise water awareness, confidence, safety, fitness, and stroke development. We teach learn to swim classes without the use of flotation aids, encouraging natural skill progression and independence in the water.
Enrolment is now open for a variety of classes tailored to different age groups. We offer baby swimming lessons, providing infants with an early introduction to the water. School-aged children can enhance their skills from Learn to Swim classes right through to swim squad training. Additionally, we provide adult swimming lessons for those who wish to improve their abilities or even pursue competitive swimming.
To ensure convenience and flexibility, all students are enrolled on an ongoing basis. Payments are made fortnightly via direct debit, allowing for easy management.
Rest assured that our coaches are highly qualified, holding Swimming Australia certifications. Our instructors and lifeguards also possess current AUSTSWIM, SCTA and Royal Life Saving qualifications, ensuring the highest level of expertise and safety.
Join us at the NUsport Swim Academy and embark on a rewarding swimming journey that caters to your age and abilities, while fostering a love for the water.
