CNE Swim
Adult Swim Lessons in Kelowna
Hi, I'm Chanelle, and I teach private swim lessons for adults right here in Kelowna. It is never too late to learn, and you will never be the oldest person I have taught. Whether you want to finally feel safe in the water, get over a fear you have carried for years, or clean up your stroke for fitness and triathlons, we go at your pace and we keep it relaxed.
Lessons at your pool, my pool or the beach
I come to you. If you have a backyard pool or a condo pool in Kelowna or West Kelowna, that is the easiest option for most people. You can also book lessons at my pool on Sunset Drive downtown, and in the summer we can meet at the beach so you get comfortable swimming in Okanagan Lake. In the winter months I run indoor sessions at pools in Kelowna, so you can keep progressing all year.
Pricing
A 30 minute lesson is $45, a 45 minute lesson is $75 and a full hour is $90. If you want faster results, my one week intensive gives you a lesson every single day for five days, which is the quickest way I know to build confidence. Daily 30 minute lessons start at $225 for the week and daily hour long lessons start at $375. You are welcome to share a week with a partner or a friend, which brings the cost down for each of you.
Lessons for every level
I teach complete beginners who have never put their face in the water, nervous swimmers who want to feel calm and in control, and confident swimmers who want to go faster and further. We start exactly where you are. For beginners that means breathing, floating and your first few metres without panic. For everyone else it means cleaner technique, more efficient strokes and the endurance to keep going. There is no set program you have to fit into. Every lesson is built around your goals.
Why adults choose CNE Swim
I am an NCCP certified swim coach, a certified lifeguard and a certified swim instructor, and my own competitive swimming career took me all the way to the World Championships. More than that, I know how it feels to learn something new as an adult, so I keep every lesson patient, private and completely judgment free. Swimmers across Kelowna have given CNE Swim a perfect five star rating on Google, and the thing adults mention most is how quickly they stopped feeling nervous.
Common questions from Kelowna adults
Am I too old to learn? No. I have taught adults well into their seventies, and people are always surprised by how fast they progress. Do you come to my home pool? Yes, home and condo pools around Kelowna and West Kelowna are where most of my lessons happen in the summer. I am nervous in the water, is that ok? Completely. A lot of my adult swimmers start out nervous, and we go as slowly as you need. What should I bring? A swimsuit, a towel and goggles if you have them. Can I train for a triathlon or open water swim? Yes, I coach stroke efficiency, endurance and open water skills. How do I start? Send me a message and tell me a bit about where you are at, and I will take it from there.
