OUR VISION

We want to pass down our nation’s favourite past-time and see families and communities share in the joy of swimming with the next generation.

The water is all we need to feel connected to ourselves and one another, to experience togetherness in an increasingly lonely society, to slow down and spend time in a wonderfully magical place.

By teaching the small to swim we're creating communities that love life, together.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

• Small classes provide children the attention necessary to develop, practice and improve swimming skills. We have only two children per class in all of our learn to swim levels.
  
  
• Learning to float and relax in the water is key to gaining the confidence needed when learning how to swim. You won't see us pushing children to rush in the water in our program.
  
  
• We do not use floatation devices when teaching children how to swim as this removes the beauty and sensation of the water from the learn to swim experience and hinders progress.
  
  
• Children need to learn how to swim BEFORE learning competitive strokes. You won't see children do over arms until they can swim the length of our 25 metre pool. Over arms causes us to go under water and is unsafe for young children learning how to swim.
  
  
• Consistency and repetition is key when learning a new skill. All of our teachers are trained in and follow the same program in all levels.
  
  
• Quality technique and skill take time to develop. You cannot rush the process and gain great results. We take our time to get things right for amazing long term results.
  
  
• Practice makes permanent! We make sure that we have our technique right before we do lots and lots of laps.
  
  
• Learning to swim is the best thing children can do!

OUR DIRECTOR

Meet our managing director, Sasha Hanic who has been operating In The Deep Swim School since June 2007.

Sasha herself learnt how to swim at the age of 5 in Sydney, just down the road in the UNSW swimming pool which was then home to the well known 'Wales Swim Club'. With loads of encouragement from family and a very competitive nature, she went on to win State titles in Freestyle and Butterfly and compete in many National age events. Swimming then took a back seat in the pursuit of her love for music, but found its way back into her heart as she became a swimming teacher in the year 2000.

Sasha has developed the In The Deep swimming program which begins with babies and goes all the way through to refining all 4 competitive strokes and survival strokes. Over many years of attending courses and conferences and receiving input from head coaches and teachers around the world, Sasha continues to strive to improve the In The Deep program.
