Stanley is an amazing teacher. I noticed such a massive improvement in my freestyle during our 60 minute session and he typed out a list of things for me to keep working on and showed me some YouTube videos to keep my form in check. I highly recommend Stanley and will definitely be back!

It would help if you had your bathing suit, swim goggles, swim cap, and towel to dry off. An ideal setup would mean you’d have your swimming pool for lessons, then hire someone to clean the pool afterwards. If you don’t have a swimming pool, your instructor can arrange to have the classes at a nearby facility like the local YMCA.
The average time it takes for adults to learn how to swim is 20 hours. This can vary slightly depending on how well you absorb the lessons and how well-coordinated you are in putting the sessions together to swim. Your sessions’ frequency and length can also impact how long it will take to complete your lessons. After a few sessions, your instructor can track your progress and give you an estimate of how much more time you need.

What do adult swimming lessons include?
Adult swimming lessons include all the tasks necessary for students to learn how to swim with proper form and confidence. The lessons can consist of getting you comfortable in the water and learning basic aquatic skills.
Your instructor can teach you the right way to breathe, float, kick and do arm strokes. They can teach you these skills one-by-one in shallow water, then guide you to combine them and develop your body coordination. They can then teach you basic swimming styles after you’ve mastered the essential skills.
Getting accustomed to being in the water
Your adult swimming instructor can help you get used to being in the water. They can get you to stand in the shallow end of the pool, teach you to blow bubbles and use other techniques to help you feel more comfortable staying in the water.
Learning to breathe
Your adult swimming instructor can teach you essential breathing skills like breathing underwater, the proper way to inhale and exhale, and how to hold your breath. They can give you these lessons in shallow water.
Learning to float
As with breathing, your instructor can teach you how to float in shallow water. This step can include extending your arms and legs as you float on your back while the instructor supports you with a flotation device. You may have to do this for several sessions until the instructor allows you to float unassisted. Your instructor can use this or other techniques to teach you how to swim with confidence.
Learning to kick
After learning how to float, your instructor can teach you how to kick and move through the water. They can teach you how to kick the right way, so you propel yourself through the water and don’t aimlessly splash about. They may provide you with a kickboard to develop this skill, then have you kick without its help.
Learning arm strokes
Once you’ve learned how to kick, you can learn how to use your arms to make proper strokes. Your instructor can teach you good form and do arm strokes starting from a standing position, then on the water’s surface, then with your face in the water. Your swimming instructor can use this or other proven techniques to teach you how to do arm strokes.
Combining lessons
After completing and mastering all the basics, your adult swimming instructor can ask you to put all of the lessons together and have you swim a short distance. They can observe your technique, then recommend which areas you must work to improve.
This process can continue until your instructor thinks you have succeeded in combining the lessons and can swim the proper way. Once you’re confident with your newly-learned swimming skills, your instructor can teach you other swimming strokes if you wish.

Private swim lessons (3yo & 1yo)

Parklea NSW, Australia
17th Dec 2025
I live in an apartment complex with a communal pool. Hoping to get a swim instructor to provide regular lessons for my girls at the pool here. They are 3yo, and 1yo and both have never had swim lessons. I’m a single mum so I can hold one child whilst the other has the lesson and then do a swap over. I can’t help you with the child actively doing the lesson as it’ll sway my attention from the child I’m watching. Unsure of what the usual pricing is so send offers (for one lesson and we’ll go from there)
