How we teach

We treat every little swimmer as if they were our own. Our teachers just loving seeing smiling little faces in the pool at JUMP! And our competency-based program focuses on the joy of participation and parental engagement.

Prepare, Instruct and Praise

Our Prepare, Instruct, Praise philosophy is the backbone of JUMP’s program and is the difference between children developing skills in the water and resisting. This results in children swimming earlier and doing it in a safe, loving and adventurous spirit.

PREPARE our children through the use of water conditioning, a basic fundamental is the need of children to not only accept water but embrace it.

INSTRUCT our children through telling them with verbal direction and showing them with physical manipulation of their body to help develop the motion and the skill. We guide them through the process with support and assistance.

PRAISE our children for every success. Learning to swim is a fun adventure! After every new skill or attempt we provide encouragement and recognition.

We know every child by name

JUMP! swim teachers know every child by name and love talking to Mums and Dads about progress each class. Bringing out the best outcomes for your child through Preparing, Instructing and Praising is the backbone of our teaching philosophy, and it’s woven into every class we teach. This is the way learn to swim should be — helping every child feels safe and at home as we join them on their swimming journey.
