Thanks to the EasySwim method, children learn to swim better, faster, and with more enjoyment. The swimming lessons are tailored to the way young children learn and move. Lessons start directly in the deep water to make the swimming experience as natural as possible and to develop a sense of water. During swimming lessons for the A diploma, an EasySwim swim vest is therefore mandatory.
Another important part of the EasySwim method is working in small groups with attention for each child. The children are divided into smaller groups and work at their own level with various instruction cards and training materials. The instructor provides individual assistance during practice. To give the right attention and support, the instructor teaches as much as possible from within the water. Children also swim with the same instructor and in the same group whenever possible.
At Geusseltbad, swimming fun and the child come first! Do you have any questions about the EasySwim method at Geusseltbad? Contact us at zwemlessen [at] maastricht.nl (zwemlessen[at]maastricht[dot]nl).

When you have mastered all the skills for the swimming certificate, you will receive an invitation for the pre-certificate swimming. This is a test moment before the diploma swimming. It gives you a preview of what the diploma swimming will look like. The swimming instructor checks whether you are fully ready. If so, you may take part in the diploma swimming one week later.
Check the scheduled dates on this page. The pre-certificate and diploma swimming always take place in the competition pool. There is a spectator stand where your family can come and watch. The stand can be reached via the stairs to the left of the information desk.
