WHO ARE THESE LESSONS FOR?
We started swimming lessons because we found that after six years of operating Swim Dem Crew, many of our friends and extended friends still couldn’t swim. Our aim has been to create a safe space and learning environment, for people of colour that want to learn how to swim.
Our previous cohorts of lessons have crafted deep bonds as friends and become micro-communities of their own. We ask that our wishes for our own space are respected.
WHAT ARE THEY?
These lessons are for beginners and people that can't swim, the people that will sink in the deep end and that haven’t swum much before.
The total £120 (20% discount) fee covers your weekly lesson over 6 weeks and pool entry to each session.
Your lessons are non-transferrable to other cohorts, and there are no refunds to not being able to attend a lesson. It is your responsibility to be available to attend lessons.
HOW DO THEY WORK?
The lessons are running each Tuesday from 1st October until 5th November . At the first session, all the swimmers will be assessed and then the teachers will create a plan for their swimmers to follow. Our teachers are vetted by our Co-Founders and are fully qualified swimming teachers with years of experience.
Swim Dem lessons are different from normal swimming lessons. A teacher will be in the water with you at all times, there will be a family atmosphere within the group and you will be encouraged to support each other throughout the lessons.
