Splash (lessons for 3 year olds)

Swimming lessons for children who are 3 years old and in part-time school. Splash allows young swimmers to progress and develop their skills with the support of an adult in the water, through to being more confident and independent in the water and ready to transition into the Wave programme. 

Junior Learn to Swim lessons (also known as Waves)

We follow the nationally recognised Swim Wales learn to swim programme (waves) for the delivery of our Junior Learn to Swim lessons. The framework covers vital skills required for participation in aquatic activities and disciplines and is suitable for children over the age of 4.

Children are taught the necessary swimming and aquatic skills to be competent swimmers and to take part in other aquatic activities, such as water polo. They also are taught vital water safety skills so that they learn how to be safe in and around water.

Upon completing our swim lessons there are many exit routes for swimmers to continue to enjoy aquatic activities.

Exit routes include; County Swimming Clubs, Rookie Lifeguard (Bronze, Silver and Gold awards), Mini Polo*, Water Polo* and Swim Fit.

Junior Learn to Swim lessons are available at all Conwy pools, please contact your preferred centre for availability.

Adult lessons

It is never too late to learn how to swim! We believe that every person should have a chance to learn to swim and become the very best swimmer they can be. 

Adult lessons are currently offered in Abergele, Llandudno and Llanrwst. Please contact your preferred centre for availability.

One-to-one lessons

We offer private swimming lessons for adults and juniors. These are offered outside the times of our swimming lesson programme and therefore availability is limited..

Please contact your local swimming pool to register for lessons.
