We are always very cautious when using floating devices with absolute beginners. If you’re afraid of water, floating aids can create a false sense of safety and only slow down your progress.
That’s why you rarely see a pool noodle in our classes. We start using the exercise tools straight away - a kick board and pool buoys.
But if you have limited shoulder flexibility and find it strenuous to stretch your arms across the board, then a folded pool noodle could be a great alternative.
You can also try different shapes and arrangements for a natural kicking position. Experiment with having a noodle around your chest or under your armpits.
A strong leg kick is important for being more confident in the water, so work those legs with an exercise tool of your choice 👌

How long does it actually take: learning to swim as an adult?
⠀
Many students ask us if they will swim well after our course, or in how many lessons they will be able to swim if we talk about individual lessons.
⠀
And the answer is: it really depends on you! Some of you will swim after first 2 lessons, and some of you after 5. It is important for everyone not to miss lessons and train regularly. That is the key to success! 💪
⠀
However, we calculated the fair number of classes for our courses for beginners and packages of individual lessons. It is 6️⃣!
⠀
6 hours to be able to swim your first 10m using breaststroke by the end of the course, learn water safety techniques and become confident in the pool. This is our goal!
⠀
‼️ This autumn, we have a longer course for beginners. 8 weeks, 8 lessons one a week. For better progress and learning more swimming skills!
⠀
🗓 20th October - 8th December
⏰ Tuesdays, 18.00-19.00
📍 Vattenhuset, Bergshamra

And our experienced coaches of course! 🤩

Our coach Ho Yi held a workshop about open water safety. During the lesson we practiced how to use lifebuoy, how to help someone who is in trouble in the water, how to be safe while saving another person’s life. And we also made a film about our project @vattenstart2020 together with @ourmagicalstudio 😍
⠀
So, the open water swimming season is closed for now! See you in Stockholm pools, dear swimmers! 🏊‍♀️

💥Last Open Water Event of this season💥
Open Water Safety Workshop + bonus swim 🏊‍♀️🤗

If you have participated in our camps, but missed your safety lesson or if you never got a chance to swim with us in open water and want to jump on this last train, either way, you’re welcome!

This is a drop-in lesson: you don’t have to register in advance.

Knowledge about open water safety is extremely important for those who live in Sweden. Stockholm is surrounded by water, water activities are very popular. People spend a lot of their time near lakes and sea, but do they know how to do it in a safe way? If you want to learn the basics of open water safety and practice your life saving skills then this workshop is for you!

WHEN: 5th September, 12.00 – 13.30

WHERE: Brunnsvikens strandbad (Frescati Hagväg 18, Solna)

PRICE: 150 SEK (no need to pay in advance, you can pay via SWISH just before the lesson)

Tell your friends and come swim together 💦🐬

It’s getting a bit colder but we believe this season has a few more nice outside swims to give us! So pack your wetsuit and book an individual session with Swim-PT (cheaper in open water👌) or contact us about the next open water drop-in. We need at least 3 interested students. How about next weekend, guys? 🏊‍♀️

The whole pool to ourselves. Vattenhuset pool in Bergshamra is the new location for our swimming 101 course for beginners. It’s located in Solna and we get a chance to enjoy the warm water and light setting all on our own as it’s not open for general public.
Perfect to focus on your first moves in the pool and take it easy 👌 Here coach Peter is seen in action with a group that is finishing their classes and can already swim a bit.
Do you also want to join and learn the lifesaving skill of swimming with us? Next course start is in September, check our website 👩‍💻
