Our children's lessons run throughout the year in both Rathmines and Crumlin. They can be paid for monthly by direct debit at €38 per month or in blocks of ten for €100. Direct debits run every month. If you would like to finish swimming lessons, written cancellation is required. We provide a selection of days and times for you to choose from. We have classes on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoon and Saturday mornings. Each time slot has 7 levels for your child to be assessed and placed in:
  • Ducklings: This is our beginner level where children will learn water confidence, how to float, submerge their face and to jump in. The minimum age for this level is 3 years.
  • Tadpoles: This is a step up from beginners where children will learn how to push and glide on their front and back, retrieve objects from below the surface and breaststroke arms.
  • Frogs: At this level children learn front crawl arm action unaided, backcrawl and breast stroke leg action.
  • Penguins: Now confident and independent in shallow water they can improve technique and advance their skills.
  • Seals: Further development with technique and learning more skills.
  • Sharks: Confident in deep water and beginning to build stamina and strength along with technique. Continuous development of skills and strokes; more stamina, strength and skills.
We also run a very popular Swan Babies and Swan Toddlers program. These are fun classes with the instructor and a parent in the water aimed at introducing babies and young children to swimming. Classes are on every day during the week and we have limited spaces in Swan Toddlers on a Saturday. They run over a 10 week term at €100. We are running children's 'intensive swim lessons' throughout the school holidays - Summer, Halloween and Easter. Intensive Swim Lessons are an excellent way for children to progress their learning in a short amount of time. They cost €55 per week for a daily 45 minute lesson. There are two options for lessons - from 9am-9.45am or 1pm-1.45pm. For information on children's lessons or a full set of terms and conditions please email corrineswanleisure@gmail.com

Private Swimming Lessons

Our instructors offer one on one private swimming lessons at affordable prices for all levels.

Beginners
If you are a nervous swimmer and would feel more comfortable with an instructor in the water private lessons can help you improve your confidence and your swimming quickly.

Intermediate and Advanced
You might be a confident swimmer but have a specific skill you would like to improve - private lessons will help you reach your goals in a short amount of time.
If you would prefer to get one on one attention and learn how to swim or improve what they already know with fast results then private lessons are just the thing for you! One private lesson: €40 for a single session, €170 for five sessions, €275 for ten sessions (only €27.50 per lesson!) Lessons are purchased by tokens/vouchers and are valid for 6 months.

Pool Parties

Unfortunately we are not currently running pool parties.

For the Family

Here at Swan Leisure we can change the depth of the floor to suit any activity we would like to hold. So when you bring younger children we can have one section of the pool at a shallow depth for their confidence and independence.

You can avail of our family swims every Saturday afternoon and our family fun days every Sunday all day. Throughout our timetable you will also find adult and toddler swims allowing a time for parents and young children and on Sundays we have small toys in the pool all day suitable for younger children.

We also have family changing rooms with baby changing mats and nappy bins to make bringing the whole family swimming that bit easier. The water temperature is 30 degrees which is perfect for young children.
As part of our 'getting the community active' ethos people who are over 65 years of age are welcome to use both our pool and gym any day of the week or time of day. All we require is an annual €20 registration fee and on your first visit some form of proof of age and address to show that you are living or working in the area. Please note that in the interest of safety children ten and under need an adult in the water and EACH child under three years of age must be accompanied by an adult. We are open for non members to drop in during Public Swims as per timetable. Numbers in the pool will be restricted and entry on a first come, first served basis.
