Explore our range of adult swimming programs
Based at Griffith's Mt Gravatt campus, the Aquatic and Fitness Centre has a number of swimming programs for adults. Whether you're learning to swim, boost your skills or get fit, there's a swimming program to suit you.
Swimming lessons
Classes are held on Tuesdays, Thursday and Saturday mornings.
Adult beginner
A 30-minute lesson designed for adults with little or no swimming experience. Classes focus on overcoming fear of the water, gaining water confidence, floating, kicking and breathing techniques.
Adult intermediate
A 30-minute lesson for adults who can swim around 10 m to 15 m of freestyle or backstroke unassisted. Lessons focus on development of freestyle and backstroke, with the introduction of breaststroke.
Class location
Depending on the level of the class, lessons are held in either our 25-m outdoor pool or 12.5-m indoor Learn to Swim pool.
Both pools are comfortably heated and have a minimum depth of 1.2 m, which allows you to stand up and have a rest during lessons.
