Disclaimer
Swimming lessons involve inherent risks, and all participants should be aware of the potential risks involved. Our instructors take every precaution to ensure the safety of our students, but accidents and injuries can occur. It is the responsibility of all swimmers to follow safety guidelines, use equipment properly, and inform our staff of any medical conditions or concerns that may impact their ability to participate safely. Swimming lessons are not a substitute for adult supervision, and parents or guardians must always be present and attentive while their children are in or near the water.
While we strive to provide a safe and hygienic learning environment, there is always a risk of contracting water-borne illnesses, especially in shared swimming pools. Any damage caused to the pool by students will be their responsibility to pay for. Sailfish Swim Academy does not assume liability for any such damages incurred. We recommend that all students follow good hygiene practices and avoid the pool if they have any symptoms of illness.
Sailfish Swim Academy cannot be held responsible for any lost or stolen personal items. Upon enrollment in our program, you agree to assume all risks and release us from any liability for injury, loss, death, or damages that may occur on our premises, including our centre, adjoining lands, buildings, and car park during lessons.
Our curriculum and teaching methods are based on industry standards and best practices, but individual results may vary depending on factors such as age, physical ability, water adaptability, trauma experience, willingness to socialise with strangers, and prior experience. Generally, the expectation for 7 years and above to complete freestyle and swim independently is half a year. After 2 years, he/she should have completed all 4 strokes and be ready to join our competitive program. For 7 years and below, half a year will be spent to complete safety and self rescue, then, we will focus on teaching them to swim independently. After 2 years, he/she should have completed all 4 strokes and be ready to go for novice competitions. We do not guarantee any specific level of skill or achievement, and students should not expect to progress at the same rate as others in their class.
Parents and students are responsible for providing their own swimming gear, including but not limited to swimming diapers (for infant classes), swimwear, goggles, and kickboards. Sailfish Swim Academy is not obligated to provide or borrow any swimming gear to students. Students who arrive for their lesson without the appropriate swimwear may be unable to participate in the lesson, and no refunds or replacements will be provided in such cases.
We reserve the right to cancel, reschedule, or combine classes at any time due to unforeseen circumstances, such as pool maintenance or instructor unavailability. In such cases, we will make every effort to notify affected students in advance and provide alternative options.
Sailfish Swim Academy reserves the right to refuse service or to remove any individual from the premises for inappropriate behaviour, including but not limited to, disruptive behaviour, verbal or physical abuse, or failure to follow safety rules and guidelines.
Students consent to the use of images or video footage taken during swimming lessons for promotional, marketing, or training purposes. Sailfish Swim Academy reserves the right to use such images or footage for any purpose without compensation to students.
Any personal information collected from students or parents will be kept confidential and used solely for the purposes of managing their enrollment and progress in our program. We will not share or sell this information to any third parties without explicit consent, except as required by law.
