Great knowledgeable instructors! Focuses on technique and breaks down the whole movement so you are able to focus on smaller important parts. Later you'll build up again to the complete swimming stroke, train your endurance and swim truly effortlessly!

At the Academy there are such very nice instructors. I could not swim not at all and even so afraid of water. But after two months now I can swim and I'm having fun in water.

When I came to this swimming lesson, I was not able to do 25 meter front crawl without feeling exhausted. After 12 lessons, my front crawl has improved massively and I’m able to swim effortlessly. Big kudos to Rico!

After following swim classes with the Swim Academy, I am the kind of relaxed and steady freestyle swimmer I used to be jealous of. I can totally recommend their classes!

Swimming goggle: for clear vision, eye protection, and enhanced performance. Try our examples on location and dive in with confidence!

Swimming cap: Streamline your swim, reduce drag, and protect your hair. Try our high-quality swimming cap on location for optimal performance and comfort.

We offer high-quality lessons with a clear structure focused on measurable results. Our method empowers swimmers to take control of their learning process from the very start, making lessons both motivating and enjoyable, while leading to effective outcomes. Our swimmers make demonstrably faster progress compared to traditional methods, gaining a lifelong skill with an understanding of intermediate steps.

The success of each exercise is defined by its constraints, with clear goals established from the outset. Our motor learning strategy, “Knowledge of Result Feedback” from Dynamic Systems theory, posits that meaningful learning happens through practice with a clear intention and easily verifiable real-time goals. We believe that learning is most effective when individuals understand what to do and how to observe or meausure their performance (no matter how big or small).

We guide you comprehensively, providing the right challenges at the right moments to ensure you quickly learn to improve or swim with lasting enjoyment and success. Whether you are a beginner or seeking to swim long distances more efficiently, our exercises are designed to support independent progress alongside our training sessions. Curious? Book your Try-Out and experience the difference yourself!
