Swim Lessons: Goals for Every Age in Raleigh

Looking for swim lessons in the Raleigh area? At British Swim School Raleigh, we offer swimming lessons with an emphasis on water safety to kids and adults of all ages. Our “advance at your own pace” program allows students to advance at their own pace through our class levels so they are always learning instead of waiting for a new session to begin.

Swim Lessons for All Skill Levels

We invite you to explore our unique program and find the right swimming lessons for your student with this quick overview:

  • Tadpole & Swimboree, for ages 3-36 months.
    These “parent & me” lessons introduce infants and toddlers to the water with fun games, songs, and lots of gentle splashing. Goals in these classes include full gentle submersion, assisted back floats, independent rollovers, and the ability to separate in the water from a parent.
  • Seahorse, for ages 18-36 months.
    In Seahorse, it’s all about independence! Parents actively participate from the pool deck as students work on back floating, pushing from the pool wall + rolling over, and other water survival skills.

  • Starfish & Minnow, for ages 3 and up.
    Starfish builds confidence and self-esteem in students three and older with full submersion and independence in the swim ring. Minnow students learn beginner water survival techniques and will be able to swim 10 yards of an elementary backstroke when they are ready to advance to Turtle 1.
  • Turtle 1 & 2, for ages 3 and up.
    Turtle 1 introduces propulsion and beginner swim strokes. Students will be able to swim elementary backstroke and freestyle for 10 yards without assistance before advancing. In Turtle 2, swimmers focus on arm, leg, and breathing coordination for three basic swim strokes, and improve their distance swimming the backstroke and freestyle.
  • Shark 1 & 2, for ages 3 and up.
    Our advanced classes, Shark 1 & 2, perfect technique and increase speed and stamina in the water. At the completion of Shark 2, students will be able to swim 50 yards in four strokes: backstroke, breaststroke, freestyle, and butterfly.
  • Swim Team.
    Barracudas swim team members work towards personal goals of improving individual distance stamina as well as learning about teamwork and competition.
  • Adult Classes.
    In our adult classes for ages 18 and up, students can customize their goals based on their skills and abilities.
