The swimming lessons provided by Turtle Tots begin even before a baby is born. Their Turtle Tums Aqua Natal Yoga classes are designed to help prepare expectant parents mentally and physically for the arrival of their new baby. These relaxing lessons utilise the natural buoyancy and resistance of the water, offering benefits such as stretching, relaxation, and deep breathing.
For babies aged 0–14 months, Turtle Tots offers baby swimming lessons that focus on gentle and playful activities, songs, and games, fostering bonding, attachment, and familiarisation with water. These lessons also aim to teach vital lifesaving skills in a supportive and nurturing environment.
As children progress to the toddler stage (14 months to 3 years), Turtle Tots' swimming lessons build upon the foundations developed in their first year. The lessons promote skill consolidation and introduce age-appropriate swim techniques.
For 3 and 4 year olds, Turtle Tots provides swimming lessons to help children master the skills introduced in their baby and toddler lessons. These lessons focus on recognisable swimming techniques such as back and front strokes, streamlining, rotation, diving for objects, treading water, and floating.
Turtle Tots Cornwall values water safety and the development of a lifelong love for the water. Their lessons are designed to be adaptable to each child's pace, ensuring that every child can progress at a rate that is comfortable for them.
