I PESSITT di GiZeta

GiZeta has created its own one-of-a-kind teaching method: I PESSITT di GiZeta. Your children will learn to swim while living a wonderful adventure alongside our mascot, Rino il Delfino. Lesson after lesson they will meet the friendly PESSITT, characters inspired by the fish of Lake Como, who guide them through a journey full of games, imagination and new achievements. An engaging, fun way to learn to swim, turning every milestone into a memory to treasure.

Frequently asked questions

At what age can a child start swimming lessons?

+
The swimming school starts from age 4. For children from age 3 and a half we offer a more playful, water-based path, designed to build confidence with water before starting the course proper. It's a gentle first step that helps little ones feel at home in the pool before they begin learning to swim.

How many times a week should a child swim?

+
For getting started, once a week is enough; with two lessons a week progress is quicker. The choice is between a once-weekly and a twice-weekly course: both are worthwhile, and you decide based on the child's age, your goals and the family's other commitments.

Is a medical certificate needed for children's swimming lessons?

+
Yes: a non-competitive medical certificate is required for all members from age 6 and up. Below age 6 it isn't needed. You can hand it in at the front desk when you register or during the first few lessons, so there's a little time to arrange it if you need to.
