Philosophy
"Children learn and listen more voluntarily when they meet kindness, empathy and patience. When their core needs for connection is fulfilled."
- Vince Gowman
​
There are so many reasons why you as a parent wants to register your child for swimming lessons. Mostly, it is for your child's own benefit. But for every good reason, we believe those would be achieved with consistency, gentle, loving and child-centered approach that makes the child happy and excited learning in the class.
​
So we came up with this idea: a swimming class that puts your child's happiness before everything else. Going through a learning process that follows your child's pace. We patiently guide your child to learn consciously and with his own discovery; what he is ready to learn and when he is ready to learn it.
Rather than doing the activity to them, we are doing it with them. So every child can enjoy their learning process in the water, having water safety according to their ability and learning consciously by their own discovery.

Our Story
Swimtime Aquatics was founded in 2017 in Bogor, Indonesia by Dimas K. Hudaja & Siendy Tan. With Dimas' background as a swimming coach in Singapore for two years and the belief that we can bring the benefits of baby swimming for children in Indonesia, together, we built Swimtime Aquatics from the beginning.
​
When we first opened a swimming school, we were searching for the best method to teach swimming. We tried one, but somehow it was not quite right.
​
But we believe in continual learning and it helps us to have a broader view of swimming, children, and humans. Every time we get a new insight, we will discuss it carefully on how this insight can bring betterment to our program and tailor it to impact all of our students better.
​
And finally one day, we realized something:
That there is no magic. When we treat your child in a gentle and loving manner, it makes your child happy and excited to learn in the class every week.
​
Our dreams are to bring the joy of learning in every child and to have many parents who understand their child in the journey of gaining a new and wonderful life experience. For the view of learning journey keep on going as long as we live.
​
With kindness and patience from both coach and parents, children will learn better and feel incredibly happier not just in the swimming class, but in their life.
