Allianz Swim Club
Allianz Swim Club is a modern, inclusive, open and inviting swim club that rethinks the way we teach adults to swim.
Developed in response to research that has found one in four adults are either weak swimmers or can’t swim at all, Allianz Swim Club normalises not knowing how to swim by developing lessons exclusive to and designed for, Adults. Preparing them to be confident in the water.
It is a free of charge, 8-week learn-to-swim program available at 15 pools across 5 states. Allianz are funding 800 swimmers to participate in the pilot wave of this program.
Supported by free merchandise pack that will be handed out on arrival at the first lesson, welcome morning tea and ongoing email support, as well as a private Facebook group, Allianz Swim Club builds a community of swimmers in a friendly, encouraging and judgement-free environment to learn.
