Swimming Kids Ramkhamhaeng 129/1
5 ซอยรามคำแหง 129/1 ถ.รามคำแหง, สะพานสูง, Saphan Sung, Bangkok 10240
The saltwater setup alone sets this apart from chlorine-heavy competitors. Start with Small or Smile depending on your baby's age, and expect the instructors to prioritize breath control and floating before stroke mechanics. The weekly video clips mean you can actually see what your child is learning underwater, which matters when you are paying per term.
You step off Ramkhamhaeng into Soi 129/1 and the school sits five doors down, an indoor facility built around a temperature-controlled saltwater pool. The curriculum is certified by Thailand's Ministry of Education and endorsed by Australian swimming institutions, so the teaching standard runs international rather than improvised.
Seven class levels span four months to twelve years. Small starts babies at four months with basic water comfort. Smile and Smart build confidence and breath control for toddlers between one and two years. Strong covers ages two to 2.9 years, Pre-Swim bridges 2.9 to three, Swim handles three to six, and Stroke refines technique for kids aged four through twelve. Each level emphasizes survival skills, floating, and controlled submersion before pushing stroke mechanics.
Terms run ten weeks at ten sessions. Pricing sits between 8,500 and 9,900 baht depending on the class level, with a one-time 1,000 baht registration fee when you enroll. Instructors send parents weekly video clips showing exactly what each child practiced that session, so progress is documented rather than described. The footage captures underwater work, which is harder to observe poolside and easier to review at home.
The facility is one branch in an eleven-location network across Thailand, so the teaching approach and pool standards carry across to other neighborhoods if you relocate. Closed Mondays. The weekend schedule runs 9 AM to 6:30 PM, weekdays 10 AM to 6 PM. Book your first trial session by phone or through the website, and expect the intake conversation to focus on your child's current water confidence and any prior swim exposure.
