On-going Swimming Programmes
Our On-going Programmes provide year-round exercise and training, unlike the Regular Programmes which have breaks between quarters. This is essential for team training and individuals who prefer to exercise regularly.
Shark Level is designed for participants who have successfully completed our Swimming Academy’s Progressive Swimming Programme, and who wish to continue refining their skills or improve their proficiency once a week, without committing to team training. Shark Level is further separated into Mako Shark, Hammerhead Shark and Great White Shark levels according to each participant's swimming abilities. Participants only need to enrol once each year, and attend weekly lessons with the same schedule under the same instructor for the duration of the year. Course fees, however, must be paid quarterly.
Age Group | Achievement | |
---|---|---|
Mako Shark | 9-17 |
|
Hammerhead Shark | 9-17 |
|
Great White Shark | 9-17 |
