Flagship Classes
To bring you and your child the best experience, we have our Flagship classes, conducted by our own coaches.We currently have the Flagship Classes available only at Yishun and Sengkang Swimming Complex.
Best Experience Guaranteed!
In our Flagship Class, we make sure your child is well taken care of. We are aware that a swimming pool is a totally new environment for some kids and they are not yet comfortable. On top of them, they have to be left alone without being beside their parents.
With that in mind, we make sure that the child can learn at their own pace and enjoy themselves while too!
The Beginners
In our structured swim classes, students are categorised according to their swimming abilities. From those who have yet to dip a toe in the water, to those already familiar with the sensation of submerging, all are welcomed into our beginner class. As each student’s skills enhance, they are subsequently transitioned into a class that better suits their level of proficiency.
Every student embarks on their swimming journey by learning the breaststroke, affectionately referred to in our academy as the ‘frog style’. Mastering this style can take some time, but our expert coaches and a range of innovative learning aids are available to make this process more comfortable and enjoyable.
To progress and be prepared for the SwimSafer Stage 1, students must demonstrate proficiency in the Survival Backstroke and Breaststroke, which includes the ability to cover a minimum distance of 10 meters. This foundational skill set forms the building blocks of their swimming journey, ensuring a confident, secure, and progressive learning experience.
SwimSafer Programme
The SwimSafer program is based on a set of six stages, each with its own set of skills and learning objectives. These stages are designed to help students develop a strong foundation in basic swimming skills, such as floating, gliding, and kicking, as well as more advanced techniques for competitive strokes such as front crawl, breaststroke and butterfly.
One of the key benefits of SwimSafer is that it provides a clear and structured path for students to follow as they progress through the different stages. This can help them to stay motivated and focused on their swimming goals, as they can see the progress they are making and the skills they are acquiring at each stage.
In addition, SwimSafer also emphasises water safety and provides students with the knowledge and skills they need to stay safe in and around water. This can help to reduce the risk of accidents and drowning, and can give students and their parents peace of mind when swimming.
Singapore Swimming Proficiency Award (SSPA)
This award is what all students are training for, to get an official timing for their swimming at a set distance. During their swimming lessons, most students will start training for their timing at SwimSafer Silver on a weekly basis. By the time they get to SwimSafer Gold, swimming 50m below the timing is more than achievable. Most students are enthusiastic to break their own personal record.
In Singapore Swimming Academy, once the student pass SwimSafer Gold, they will change to a red swimming cap. Getting their Red Cap is a mark of a true swimmer.

FAQ on Flagship Classes
For our Flagship class, we hold our test every Quarter. The dates generally fall on the 5th Saturday or Sunday of the month. The average progress for each level is nine months.
Students are constantly being assessed on their skill sets. Once your child is ready for a certain level, the coach will continue teaching your child the next level skills. Student progress is not solely based on certificates/awards achieved by the student.
For our flagship group class, the minimum age to join is 6 years old (K2) for now. Let us know if your child is below 6 years old but more than 110cm tall. The coach has to assess if he/she can join.
Each child has different exceptional abilities and confidence level in water.
In our flagship class, it takes an average of 10 months for a 6 year old (K2) child to be able to do basic swimming at the deep pool unaided.
This is based on a weekly lesson where the child does not skip practice. Older children may take shorter time learning to swim, but that depends on each individual student.
Group classes taught by our in-house coaches. Only our flagship class offers a full structured programme ranging from beginner learn-to-swim classes to advanced lifesaving classes.
- Learn to swim (SwimSafer 2.0)

We have a proprietary system that allows us to assist instructors in organising the class and tracking the progress of our students. With this system, your fee can be paid online, so we do not have to handle cash at the pool.
With this system and structured training programme in place, we are able to take a shorter time to train every student, compared to the past.
