Improve your technique with Small Group Training

This membership gives you access to a range of structured Small Group Trainings — designed for different levels and goals. With your plan, you can join the following sessions:

• Swim Workouts (Intermediate, Advanced & High Intensity)

• Freestyle improvement 

• Learn to Swim – Course B: Safe Stroke Foundation

• Learn to Swim – Course C: Breaststroke Builder

Each session follows a clear, progressive structure and is guided by a qualified swim coach. Switching between courses is possible depending on your level and availability — ideally in consultation with your coach to ensure the best learning experience and group fit.

Participants must be 18 years or older. Bring a positive attitude, commitment, and a willingness to learn.

Join us and discover the joy of swimming in a supportive and encouraging environment!

Appropriate swimwear: a bikini or beach shorts are not comfortable for swimming. You may want to consider other options such as an one-piece swimsuit or swim trunk, as it provides better coverage and support.

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.

Bring a smile: The best accessory you can wear! Guaranteed to enhance your experience and brighten the pool. Happiness provided free of charge!

Our Small Group Trainings run year-round, and you can join at any time. Each group follows a fixed weekly schedule, with 1 or 2 sessions per week depending on your plan.

Booking is easy: after purchasing your membership, you’ll receive credits to reserve your preferred time slots. You can immediately see which sessions still have spots available — if a class is shown, that means there’s room.

Right now, we have availability across all levels — no waiting lists at this time — so you can start right away and secure a consistent spot in the group that fits you best.

This is a 12-week membership, with one or two training sessions per week. After the initial 12 weeks, your membership continues automatically and can be cancelled with 4 weeks’ notice.

Access to the club is included on training days — no extra costs.

Want more flexibility? You can upgrade your swim membership for just €59 per 4 weeks. This gives you full access to the club’s gym, pool, and wellness areas — not only on swim days, but anytime.

Note: this upgrade applies to one fixed location, lasts at least 12 weeks, and replaces your multi-location flexibility.

Your membership gives you access to:

• 1 or 2 weekly Small Group Trainings (depending on your plan)

• For a limited time, your course includes full club membership — and you keep this benefit once you’ve started.

  This gives you access to all training sessions plus full use of the club facilities on the day of your swim class, including the pool, gym, wellness, and group classes like boxing and reformer pilates.

If you can’t attend a session, you may request a make-up class within the same 4-week cycle. Make-ups are only possible in another group of the same level and are subject to availability – they are not guaranteed.

Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance to be eligible for rescheduling. Missed sessions without notice or late cancellations (within 24 hours) cannot be rescheduled or refunded. Unused classes expire at the end of each cycle and do not carry over.

All changes can be managed easily through your personal account via our app or website.

How long does it take to improve my swimming?
That depends on your starting level, how often you train, and how consistently you stick to your schedule. Most swimmers in our Small Group Trainings see noticeable improvements within 8 to 12 weeks.

Training once or twice per week provides a solid rhythm for steady progress — especially when combined with independent practice. Each program is designed to give you structure, technique development, and clear milestones to work towards.

Are group sessions suitable if I’ve just finished Course A?
Yes — Course B (Safe Stroke Foundation) is the natural next step after Course A, and is available as part of this membership. It’s designed for swimmers who are water-confident but still developing coordination and stroke control. You’ll be placed in a group that matches your level and coached step by step.

How do Swim Workouts differ from Learn to Swim?
Learn to Swim (Courses B & C) focuses on stroke foundations, control, and confidence. Swim Workouts are aimed at swimmers who can already swim and want to build endurance, refine technique, and enjoy a more fitness-based approach. We offer three levels: Intermediate, Advanced, and High Intensity.

Do I need to bring my own equipment?
All technical training materials are provided. For comfort, we recommend bringing your own swimwear, towel, and goggles. You can also purchase gear on-site or via our webshop if needed.

Yes. If you’re a member of ClubSportive, you can select the discounted subscription option during checkout — marked as (ClubSportive member).

Please note: this option does not include access to the club. If you’re not a ClubSportive member and choose this rate, you’ll need to buy a separate day pass at the front desk to access the facilities.
