Elbe Swim Academy

Elbe Swim Academy is a swimming school offering lessons and fitness activities for children and adults. Its approach combines enjoyment, individual progress and a safe, supportive environment. Children learn at their own pace in small groups, with regular block and intensive crash courses designed to build confidence and accommodate different learning needs. At the end of a course, participants can choose to take a swimming badge exam, but testing is voluntary so children can learn without performance pressure.

Children’s programs include parent-and-child swimming, beginner lessons, progression courses for swimming badges, performance swimming qualifications and mermaid training. The academy also offers mermaid birthday parties. Adult services range from learning to swim safely to technique instruction in crawl, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. Fitness options include Aqua Power, aquatic exercise and back-fitness activities, alongside individual lessons and online training through My Swim Plan. Courses are offered at the academy’s pool locations, with new course dates announced through its website and newsletter.
