Who is this for

Built for adults who need
more than a group class

Our private swimming lessons in Amsterdam are open to all levels. All you need is a clear goal and the motivation to work on it.

You're a complete beginner

Never swam properly, or not since childhood. You want to actually learn in a calm, private setting with no audience and no pressure to keep up.

Any starting point welcome

You're nervous around water

Water anxiety is more common than you think. A private swimming lesson means no strangers watching, no group pace to match. Just steady, patient progress on your terms.

Safe, judgment-free environment

You want to improve

You can swim, but your technique, stamina, or efficiency isn't where you want it. Training for a triathlon or open water? Private coaching fixes the specific gaps a group class never will.

Common questions

Questions about
private lessons

Everything you need to know before booking a private swimming lesson in Amsterdam.

A 1-on-1 private swimming lesson at Win and Swim costs €120 per session. A 1-on-2 semi-private lesson (you and one other person) costs €85 per person per session. All sessions include equipment, use of the heated pool, and a certified swimming instructor focused entirely on you.
Yes. Our private swimming lessons for adults welcome complete beginners. If you have never learned properly, or swam as a child and lost it over the years, the coach starts from zero with you. Every drill and every correction is calibrated to where you actually are, not to a curriculum designed for a mixed group. Most beginners make more progress in two or three private sessions than in months of group classes.
Yes. Water anxiety is one of the most common reasons adults contact us. The key difference in a private setting is psychological: there is no one else in the session, no timeline imposed by a group, and no moment where you feel watched or judged. If you need to stay in the shallow end for the whole session, that is fine. Progress is measured against your own comfort, not a syllabus. If fear of water is your main barrier, read more about our aquaphobia swimming lessons.
The core difference is specificity. In a group class, the instructor gives corrections that broadly apply to the group. Drills are standardised. If the class is working on breaststroke and you need help with your freestyle flip turn, that does not get addressed. In a private swimming lesson, the entire session is built around your actual technique gaps — the coach watches only you, adjusts in real time, and changes direction the moment something clicks or needs rethinking. That level of precision is not possible in a group setting.
A 1-on-2 lesson (also called a semi-private lesson) is a private session for two people sharing one instructor. This works well for two friends or a couple at a similar level who want to train together. The coach still focuses exclusively on the two of you, with no other swimmers in the session. At €85 per person, it is a more affordable option than a solo lesson while keeping a far more personal experience than any group class.
All private swimming lessons at Win and Swim take place in a heated indoor pool in Amsterdam Noord. The water temperature is comfortable year-round. Evening slots are available, so you can fit a session around your work schedule without needing to take time off.
