Swimming Training Approach

We offer both group and individual training options to cater to diverse learning styles and needs.

Our 5 Technical Levels: A Progressive Learning Program

Our teaching program for children is structured across five technical levels. In each level, children will develop skills through a combination of games, exercises, and specific aquatic drills. This gradual progression leads to the mastery of all four swimming styles: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly.

Below is a brief description of the education offered at each level. We cordially invite you to visit us personally at our heated pool to learn more about the full program of activities and evaluate each level in detail.

Learning Program Summary: University of Chile Swim School

Objective Assessment and Progress Tracking

To objectively assess the development and learning of each child enrolled in our program, we conduct regular technical evaluations and classification tournaments according to our schedule.

After each assessment, children receive a diploma and a detailed evaluation report, allowing parents to observe their child's technical progress in detail.
