Swimming lesson prices: set by each coach, shown before you pay
Every coach on the site sets their own price per 45-minute lesson for 1, 2, 3 or 4 learners. You see it on their profile and at checkout, and you pay exactly that, by PayNow or card. Every refund rule is written down below.
1 lesson at the coach's price
- One per coach per family
- Valid 2 weeks
- Then book 4 or 8 in the same slot
4 lessons price x 4
- One weekly slot, same coach
- Valid 8 weeks from lesson one
- Make-ups for rain and early cancels
8 lessons price x 8
- One weekly slot, same coach
- Valid 14 weeks from lesson one
- Make-ups for rain and early cancels
1 to 4 learners per lesson
- Coach sets a price for each size
- Learners share the group price
- Not every coach takes groups
How a price is worked out
The total is the coach's price for your group size multiplied by the number of lessons. Nothing is added. Here is an example with made-up figures, to show the arithmetic:
| Example coach | Per lesson | Per learner | Trial | 4 lessons | 8 lessons |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 learner | $70 | $70 | $70 | $280 | $560 |
| 2 learners | $90 | $45 | $90 | $360 | $720 |
Example only. Real prices are on each coach's profile. As a guide, most private condo lessons in Singapore are priced between about $50 and $100 per 45 minutes for one learner.
What the price includes
- 45 minutes of coaching at your condominium or home pool
- The coach's travel to you; any travel cost is part of their price, not an extra
- A fixed weekly slot with the same coach for the whole package
- A short note from the coach after each lesson
- Online rescheduling, email reminders, and make-up lessons after rain
- Automatic refunds if the coach declines your booking or misses a lesson
What you do not pay
A booking fee. A card surcharge: PayNow and card cost the same. A female-coach surcharge. A travel fee on top of the coach's price. Coaches pay the site a commission out of their share of each booking; that is how the site is paid, and it never changes what you pay.
What is outside the price: MCST guest fees
Some condominiums charge a visitor or instructor fee, usually a small flat amount per visit, paid to the management office. Most charge nothing. It is not part of the coach's price and not collected by the site, so check your house rules before booking. Our condo pool guide explains what to ask and includes a note you can send to your MCST.
How this compares with the market
Private swimming lessons in Singapore are advertised across a wide range depending on the coach's experience, the venue and whether travel is charged. As a guide, most private condo lessons in Singapore are priced between about $50 and $100 per 45 minutes for one learner, set by each coach. Group lessons at public pools cost less per session because one coach is shared among many children, but a beginner in a group gets a few minutes of hands-on time an hour. When two, three or four learners share a private coach, the cost per learner falls sharply. Our price guide compares every option.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a trial lesson?
Yes. A trial is one lesson at the coach's normal price for your group size, and each family can book one trial per coach. After it, you can book 4 or 8 lessons in the same weekly slot.
Why do prices differ between coaches?
Because each coach sets their own. Experience, how far they travel, and demand in their area all play a part. As a guide, most private condo lessons in Singapore are priced between about $50 and $100 per 45 minutes for one learner. Compare profiles and reviews, not only price.
Are packages cheaper per lesson?
No. A package costs the coach's per-lesson price multiplied by 4 or 8. What a package gives you is one fixed weekly slot with the same coach, which is what makes progress happen.
Is there a booking fee?
No. You pay exactly the coach's listed price. The site is paid by coaches, through a commission taken from their share of each booking.
Does the price include the condo guest fee?
No. Most condos charge nothing; some charge a small flat fee per visit or a monthly instructor registration, payable to your MCST. It is not collected by the coach or the site. Ask your management office before the first lesson.
Can I pay by PayNow?
Yes. PayNow and card payment through Stripe are both accepted, at the same price, on the secure checkout page after you pick your slot.
