Swimming Lessons

Kirklees Active Leisure provides successful learn to swim programmes for both children and adults.

Our children’s lessons start with Aquababes and ASA Ducklings, these are aimed at children from 0-5 years old and aim to encourage fun in the water whilst building confidence to move to the next level, KAL Swim Academy.

The KAL Swim Academy is based on the Amateur Swimming Association Scheme (ASA). The ASA’s National Plan for Teaching Swimming provides stages 1-7 for children to progress at their own pace and become confident, competent and safe in the water.

Following on from the core stages in the Swim Academy, there are further opportunities to gain confidence and develop your experience with various sport specific stages 8-10, these include waterpolo, synchronised swimming, diving, personal survival and Bronze, Silver, Gold and Honours Challenge.

We also offer 1:1 swimming lessons, these are more intense and are tailored to the needs of the swim. To find out more about our children and junior swim programmes click here.

We also run informal swimming sessions for adults. Our professional instructors will improve swimming skills, ability and confidence in these informal and enjoyable sessions. Where possible we will try to accommodate your individual needs. For further information about our adult programme ask at your local KAL Pool.
