From fun group lessons for children to private or one-to-one lessons: at Swimwise Club, you can learn to swim in a way that suits you.
At Swimwise, we believe that everyone should be able to learn to swim, close to home, in a safe and motivating environment. That is why we use portable swimming pools throughout Flanders, in collaboration with local authorities and partners.
The biggest problem today? The endless waiting lists for swimming lessons. That’s why, in partnership with Swimwise, we’re providing our own swimming pools – local, flexible and without having to rely on overcrowded public pools.
Whether you choose private lessons, partner lessons or group lessons: at Swimwise Club, you’ll learn to swim at your own pace, with guidance tailored to your needs. Our instructors are professional, experienced and able to cater for all ages. Every lesson is structured in line with the latest insights in swimming instruction; it’s safe, well-organised and, above all, fun.
With our mobile, professionally fitted swimming pools, we bring the water to you. No queues or travelling – just swimming in a local pool filled with natural water, whenever it suits you.
Learning to swim is only really fun in small groups. During our group swimming lessons, we combine personalised attention with the joy of learning together.
Swimmers are grouped according to ability, so that each lesson is tailored to your swimming ability. We have a maximum of 5 swimmers per instructor, in line with the official Fredbrevet curriculum.

Our lessons are engaging, motivating and safe, and are taught by experienced, qualified instructors.
For class times, please check the venue’s page.
In our private lessons, your child will receive 100% of an experienced teacher’s attention. Thanks to this one-to-one guidance, they will make faster progress, build their confidence and learn the correct techniques right from the start.
Every lesson is tailored to your child’s specific needs, whether that’s getting used to the water, improving their technique or overcoming a fear of the water.
Our lessons are short, intensive and focused: 30 minutes of actual lesson time, with no distractions. Available for children aged 4 and over.
Would you prefer to swim with a brother, sister or friend? Private lessons can also be booked as duo lessons, provided both swimmers are at the same level.
For class times, please check the venue’s page.
In our one-to-one lessons, the children receive equal attention from an experienced instructor. Thanks to the support of a friend or family member, their self-confidence grows and they learn the techniques correctly right from the start.

Swimwise Club uses innovative, portable swimming pools, which are slightly different from a traditional swimming pool complex. There is no traditional ticket desk where you buy tickets. Instead, you book your entry online and come to the pool at your chosen time slot.
Why registration is mandatory:
When you register, you automatically become a member (free of charge) of the Swimwise swimming club.
You enter via the boys’ or girls’ changing rooms.
Please leave your shoes to one side in the designated area.
Get changed in the communal changing room with lockers.
Please keep your registration document (ticket or confirmation) to hand; a supervisor may ask to see it.
Swimming at Swimwise is similar to exercising in a sports hall: there are no individual changing cubicles as there are in traditional swimming pools.
What you can expect:
Before entering the pool, you must have a thorough shower. We use natural, chlorine-free swimming water, so good hygiene and soap-free skin are essential.
For safety reasons:
Children under the age of 10 must always be accompanied by an adult.
Anyone who cannot swim independently and safely must also be accompanied at all times.
We have made a conscious decision to allow children ages 4 and up to participate in our swimming lessons. At this age, most children have developed sufficient motor, cognitive, and social skills to understand instructions, concentrate during class, and learn the basic skills of swimming.
Although younger children often enjoy playing in the water and can benefit from getting used to it, this is different from actually learning to swim. Swimming lessons require a certain degree of independence, attention, and developmental readiness in order to participate safely and successfully.
To ensure the highest quality of our lessons, the children’s safety, and their best chance of success, our swimming lessons therefore begin at age 4.
Do you have questions about the starting age, or are you unsure whether your child is ready to start? Feel free to contact us. We’d be happy to help.
For us, it’s all about exercise, health and water. But water that’s just right. No smell of chlorine, no red eyes. Just pure. That’s why we choose naturally filtered water using the ZUUVR system.
Swimming in natural waters means:
ZUUVR Zero is not a traditional filter system. No chemicals, no gimmicks. Just nature: clever bacteria, minerals and a circulation system that keeps the water truly clean. 100% eco-friendly. 100% healthy.
Swim the way it’s meant to be swum.
