After coming up in deep water, your child learns to stop, turn around and find the nearest safe place to get out. It stops them swimming off the wrong way, which is what most people do without practice.
Your child practises the first moments after falling in by accident. They come up, calm their breathing, roll onto their back, then head for the nearest way out. It answers the question many parents worry about most.
Kids · Teens · AdultsYour child learns to stay upright in deep water with their head out, calmly and without going anywhere. It lets them look around, call for help and get their breath back until they are ready to move.
Kids · Teens · Adults · SeniorsYour child tries floating, treading and swimming in light clothes, with the instructor close by. Feeling heavy, wet clothes once in a safe lesson takes away the shock if it ever happens for real.
Your child learns to raise an arm, wave and call out for help while staying afloat in deep water. They also learn to signal early, while they still have energy.
Your child learns to swim a short way, roll onto their back to float and breathe, then roll back over and swim on. It turns a swim that would be too far into a few short, easy ones.
Your child learns to get from the middle of deep water to the edge, swimming or floating, and climb out alone. It brings together everything they know about staying calm and getting out.
Your child puts the survival skills together without stopping: into deep water, up, settled, turned, swimming to the edge and climbing out. Doing it all in one go shows real readiness, not just single skills.
Your child rolls into deep water, treads water for one minute and then swims 50 metres. It is the biggest goal in water survival, and a strong base for safer swimming.
Kids · Teens · AdultsYour child learns to pause at the edge and check how deep the water is before getting in. That small habit keeps them from stepping or jumping into water they did not expect.
