JUNIOR SWIM

Strive Junior Swimming is an alternative environment for children and young people aged 6 to 16 to develop skills in the water.  We deliver non-competitive 'aqua lessons', emphasising growing confidence, competence, fitness, and safety in the water. 

OUR APPROACH

Our junior swim program is like no other.  We have developed a unique approach to equip your young swimmers (6-16) with all of the aquatic skills and fitness needed for them to safely and fully embrace our Island’s aquatic playground and to keep them loving swimming for longer.

OUR PROGRAMME

Strive Juniors Swim Fit

Our swimming syllabus aligns with the Swim England ‘Learn to Swim’ Framework but with additional levels of skills and experiences that we believe are essential for our Island children, and breaks the mould of more traditional swimming 'lessons'.

 

Our swimmers are exposed to water safety throughout the program and also get to learn skills from a wide range of aqua sports, including open water swimming, triathlon, water polo and surfing. We believe this elevates our programme above others, and helps keep young people swimming for longer.

For teens and adolescents, more advanced sessions keep them feeling challenged and inspired, including open water sessions in the summer months.
