Swimming School

AUI swimming school

AUI Athletic Department continues to strive to be an active agent for the development of sports in the Ifrane region and in Morocco in general. Thus, to help children attending school in the region of Ifrane to do a sports activity, the AUI Athletic department organized swimming programs for them. Also, the department organizes swimming lessons for faculty and staff children.

Swimming classes for children are an important Community development process and lead to many different outcomes: Children participating in the swimming program and developing self-esteem and confidence.  More than that, in the region of Ifrane there is a terrible lack of social activities in general and sports activities in particular. Swimming activities might help children overcome social isolation.

We are dedicated to teaching people to be proficient and providing children with the knowledge of confidence and safety in and around the water. Our program offers a variety of classes to meet everyone’s needs.  From these basic skills, we take students from the beginning stages of swimming all the way to learning all 4 strokes, freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly.
