We offer our swimming lessons across two locations in Eindhoven. Our lessons take place at the National Swimming Centre Tongelreep. Only on Mondays between 18:00 and 19:00, our lessons are held at Zwembad Ir. Ottenbad. Both facilities provide a safe, high-quality environment for your child to learn and grow.
Generally, there are no regular lessons during school holidays unless announced otherwise. However, we often organize intensive courses and special activities during these periods to keep the kids active!
Missed lessons are still charged to maintain your child’s spot in the group. However, for each missed class, you will receive a credit worth 50% of a lesson to be used toward future sessions.
Children typically start the independent ABC-diploma program at age 4 or 5. If you’d like to start earlier, we highly encourage it! We offer parent-and-child lessons for children under 4 to build water confidence from the very beginning.
Payment is easily managed through our online system. You can choose the convenience of an automatic direct debit or pay via digital invoices and payment requests.
Just the essentials! Your child will need their EasySwim vest, comfortable swimwear, and a towel. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to get ready.
We are an international friendly club:) While we follow the Dutch curriculum, our staff can assist in both English and Dutch.
To ensure personal attention and safety, our groups typically consist of 8 to 10 kids. The exact size depends on the swimming level and whether the group is led by one or two instructors.
This is the most comprehensive stage, typically taking 1.5 to 2 years to master the foundational safety and survival skills. Once Diploma A is achieved, it usually takes just 3 months of focused training to reach B Diploma. The final step to being fully “swim-safe” generally takes another 3 months of practice to get C Diploma.
We do not offer trial lessons at this time. Our programs are designed for consistent progress, and we find that children settle in best once they start their regular weekly routine with us.
Exactly! We believe every child should be able to start their swimming journey immediately. Sign up today and jump in to our lessons.
Yes! We offer separate lessons for teenagers and adults in a fun, accessible, and supportive environment. Whether you are a total beginner or looking to refine your technique, our lessons are tailored to your goals.
Yes, both locations have convenient parking:
De Tongelreep: Use the parking area along Antoon Coolenlaan.
Ir. Ottenbad: Use the parking area along Vijfkamplaan.
We prioritize quick communication. You will be notified immediately through the Splash Software app and via email. For general updates, we also post on our social media channels. Of course, we are always reachable by phone for urgent questions.
We’ll give you a warm welcome right at the entrance! We will guide you through the routes, explain the practical arrangements, and show you to the changing rooms and the pool. The first lessons focus entirely on water confidence—helping your child get used to the water in a fun, playful, and stress-free way.
