Sunny Bunny's Swim Academy

 Our programs in the water: for babies and kids, parents and pregnant women

Swimming and jumping with brains, releaxing with body, mind and soul. 

Sunny Bunny's Swim Academy at Sonnentherme draws on many years of experience. Austria’s leading baby and toddler hot springs offer daily swimming lessons for various groups all year round.

  • Toddler Swimming
  • Children's swimming
  • Mermaid Swimming
  • Wasserspringflöhe
  • Programmes for Schools

During Toddler Swimming, the little ones playfully train moving about in the water.
Fortunately, children are curious by nature and love searching for new experiences in movement.
Apart from training their motor skills Toddler Swimming helps children to keep calm in the water instead of panicking, and to safely stay on top. That’s important in case toddlers get into a dangerous situation when unattended for a moment at home or out in nature.
One of the course's purposes is to prepare kids on how to react when falling into the water unexpectedly. That is why the children walk over wobbly bridges or swim with their T-shirts on in the lessons. Thus ‘prepared’ children will be able to better master dangerous situations in the water.

Depending on their age and skill level, we address the children's needs. 
Beginners are being introduced to the element water through games and exercises. Thus, the positive aspects such as joy, courage but also respect outweigh everything else. Furthermore, it forms the basis for learning breast stroke. 
Learning breast stroke is the main goal in case of advanced swimmers. Safety awareness and diving skills are also taught. In addition, both beginners and advanced divers can use the programme contents of the "Wasserspringflöhe" for the development of coordination.

 

Sunny Maxi Swimmer I-V

Course allocation according to child's stage of development and child's skill level.
Children want to explore their world and can not identify the dangers hidden in the things their parents forbid them to do. Thus, curiousness is the cause of many serious drowning accidents. This makes learning how to swim an important measure of self-rescue for this age group.
