This principle says most swim time should feel comfortable, with short bursts of speed work.

• Easy swimming develops endurance, improves technique, and lets muscles recover.
• The 20% portion pushes your heart rate up, building speed and power.
• Too much hard work leads to fatigue; too little slows progress.

Coaches apply this ratio across a training week or month, not every single session.

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

In Sutton, expect to pay roughly £30/h for private swim tuition.

This price can vary depending on several factors:

• The stage of learning: water confidence, stroke development, or competition prep
• The tutor's background, ASA certification level, and years of coaching
• The format you choose: one-off sessions, monthly plans, or crash courses
• Location of lessons: public facility, private hire, or outdoor setting

Packages of five or ten sessions often work out cheaper per lesson.

Plenty of coaches invite new swimmers to try one lesson free before signing up.

Between ages 3 and 5, kids gain the motor skills needed to follow instructions and learn strokes.

• Parent-and-baby sessions help infants feel safe in the water from an early age.
• At this stage, children learn to kick, blow bubbles, and hold the pool edge.
• By age 5 or 6, many children swim a full width with a recognisable front crawl.

Signs of readiness include comfort in water, willingness to follow directions, and physical coordination.

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