These swimming sessions are ‘one-on-one’ with a Coach Chris Confidence teacher trained to keep people safe in the water.
The classes can vary, based on the interests and skill level of the client.
“They will work with you as per your needs, you learn swimming. But again, make you comfortable that you don’t get into any other major body issues or health issues,” said Vaishali Shah, CCC Client.
Some students start because they want to get stronger in the water or learn a specific stroke, others say they want to conquer a fear.
