Welcome to Flippers Swim School
The learning process is different for everyone, so we recommend 1 on 1 lessons rather than groups. It takes on average about 10 lessons to learn the basics, dependent on what level you want to achieve as well.
-
Booking Procedure:
-
30 minute 1 on 1 lesson costs R220
-
Group lessons (2 – 4 people) R120 per person – bring your friends we don’t organize the groups
-
You book a time slot and come every week at that time. (Twice a week is recommended for quicker progress, it makes a huge difference) lessons are booked per month. Payment in advance secures the booking.
-
We request a deposit of R400 which is refundable when you give notice you are stopping.
-
Stick to the time slot you are given, if you are late, we cannot accommodate you.
-
Spaces are limited, and our schedule is tight, missed lessons cannot be rescheduled and will be forfeited. Lessons are not transferable to other days.
-
We do not offer once off drop in lessons. Learning to swim takes commitment and a regular schedule.
-
Accounts will be emailed and payment is expected before swimming starts.
-
We close for some public holidays and long weekends, but please check your invoice for the dates.
-
Please ensure the Consent form is filled in correctly.
-
Swimming caps must be worn by all swimmers, for hygiene reasons and to avoid hair in their eyes while swimming. I sell silicone caps for R60. For "big Hair" please look for Swimma Caps
-
Goggles are optional, helpful If you have an issue with having your face in the water – makes it easier to open your eyes and see what’s going on/ make it comfortable 😉 try them on in the store, must be soft and suck onto your eyes so no leaking.
-
Please be punctual for your lessons. If you are late for a lesson, we cannot continue into the next lesson time as they have made the effort to arrive on time, or it may be a scheduled break, so avoid scheduling doctor’s appointments etc. on swimming days. Your progress at swimming will be affected by how often you attend lessons. Lessons missed are forfeited.
