Polarised training splits your sessions: 80% easy aerobic work, 20% hard intervals.

• Easy swimming develops endurance, improves technique, and lets muscles recover.
• High-intensity sessions include sprints, interval sets, and threshold work.
• This split prevents burnout while still producing measurable fitness gains.

The key is tracking total time at each intensity level over weeks.

In short: swim easy most of the time, push hard occasionally, and recover fully between hard efforts.

Swimming lessons in Great Yarmouth typically cost about £20/h per session.

This price can vary depending on several factors:

• The stage of learning: water confidence, stroke development, or competition prep
• The instructor's experience, qualifications, and teaching style
• Lesson length and frequency: weekly half-hour sessions or intensive daily blocks
• Where you swim: council pool, hotel pool, or specialist swim school

Many instructors offer a reduced hourly rate when you book multiple lessons upfront.

Children develop the coordination and attention span for structured swimming from about age 4.

• Parent-and-baby sessions help infants feel safe in the water from an early age.
• Toddler lessons (ages 1–3) introduce basic safety skills through play and gentle activities.
• From age 4, children can typically follow instructions and coordinate arm and leg movements.

Some children thrive earlier; others need more time before structured lessons click.

The key message: early water exposure builds confidence, and formal instruction works best once coordination develops.
