Males only learn to swim & Ocean safety program
Our goal is to provide affordable and tailored holistic swimming and ocean safety programs to Males in order to create generational change
The Problem.
248 people lost their life to drowning in Australian Waterways
25-34 year age group recorded the highest number of drowning deaths in NSW
24% of drowning occurred at beaches, most commonly away from patrolled areas
Males consistently drown at a rate four times that of females.
Culturally and linguistically diverse communities (CALD) were identified as an at-risk group
The Solution.
The solution lies in offering various programs that cover both theory and practical training to all males, but more specifically to those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
Theory component.
This involves becoming familiar with the ocean and it’s elements. This is covered in our beach programs. For example you will learn:
Different types of beaches & waves
how to identify and stay safe in a rip
how to interpret safety signage
What emergency protocols to follow
Practical Component.
This involves improving swimming technique to a satisfactory level where even if you found yourself in a bad situation, you have the skills to get out. This includes improving:
Arm and leg stroke
Body positioning
Breathing technique
The practical training is predominately covered in our weekly learn to swim program. We cater for both young people aged 12-17 and adults 18 years and over.
