A swimming school in Baku, running since 2014
ProFit Swimming is a swimming school in Baku with four pools across the city. Since 2014 we have taught babies meeting water for the first time, schoolchildren, adults starting from zero, and people who had avoided pools for years because of fear.
We teach one-on-one and in groups for children aged 3–12. Ask the coordinator about group composition and participant numbers before booking; they can explain the formats at your chosen branch.
Lessons run in Azerbaijani, Russian and English, so a child is taught in the language they think in.
What we do
A healthy back for the school year
Backpack, desk and phone: from September the load on a schoolchild's back grows. The “Healthy back” program (7–17): swimming plus work on posture.
The first lesson shows where to start
In one lesson (40 AZN) the coach:
- 1
Observes
How the child or adult behaves in the water: experience, fear, coordination.
- 2
Checks skills
Breathing, body position, basic movements.
- 3
Recommends
A program, coach and branch to fit the goal. No package pushed on you.
What happens in the first lesson
The first one-on-one lesson costs 40 AZN for 60 minutes at all four branches. The coach and pool are included.
The coach meets the child on dry land first, then they enter the water together. What follows depends on who is in front of them. If the child has never been in a pool, the whole lesson may stay in the shallow end: splashing, blowing on the water, putting their face in. If they already swim, the coach looks at technique and works out where to begin.
At the end you get something concrete: the current level, what makes sense to build first, roughly how long it will take, and whether one-on-one or a group suits better.
What to bring: swimwear, a cap, a towel, flip-flops and goggles. Caps and goggles can be bought on site if forgotten.
We do not force a child
The most common story we hear: the child has already been taken to a pool, and now they are afraid of the water. The reason is almost always the same. Someone decided that you just need to dunk them and it will pass.
It does not pass. The child learns that water is a place where things are done to them against their will, and after that they resist everything: the water, the coach, the whole idea of swimming.
We work differently. The coach moves at the child's pace and turns the lesson into a game: fetch a toy from the bottom, swim under the bridge, blow out a candle on the water. The child does not notice they are learning. They are playing, and the skill appears as a side effect.
Children and adults become comfortable in the water at their own pace. We cannot promise a number of lessons to overcome fear; discuss comfort and progress with the coach.
When will a child swim
Timing depends on age, regularity and previous experience with water. There is no single lesson count that applies to everyone.
Children and adults develop skills at their own pace. The coach helps review current progress and discuss what to work on next.
We do not promise a result within a fixed number of lessons. Discuss your goals, regularity and comfort with the coach to understand the next steps.
Did a doctor recommend swimming?
Typical reasons people come to us: strengthening the back and working on posture for schoolchildren, muscle tone and early development for babies 0–3, getting back to the water after a break, “office back” in adults. In-water lessons are led by a ProFit coach on an individual program; the movement-and-posture part is run by our partner movement and posture studio Lifeline Studios.
Who we teach
One-on-one or in a group for children aged 3–12. Our main focus.
In the water together with a parent. The goal here is not technique but getting used to water and enjoying it together.
From any level, including people who cannot swim at all. Lessons are one-on-one, with no onlookers.
At the Aquasport branch on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from 11:00 to 20:00 there are women-only hours: no men in the hall, and the coach is a woman too.
Wellness programmes for the back and posture, in-water lessons and work on movement. Not a medical service. If a diagnosis is present, lessons are held in agreement with your doctor.

Choose by how easy the journey is. Regularity matters more than which pool looks best: a child driven across the whole city gives up sooner.

FAQ
- How much do swimming lessons at ProFit Swimming cost?
- A single individual lesson is 40 AZN at all four branches. Individual packages: Fairmont — 10 lessons for 350 AZN; Aquasport and Ivy Garden — 8 for 250 AZN or 12 for 350 AZN; Emerald — 8 for 200 AZN or 12 for 300 AZN. Children's groups: Aquasport and Emerald — 8 lessons for 100 AZN or 12 for 130 AZN; Ivy Garden — 8 for 150 AZN. Prices cover the entire package. Each listed lesson lasts 60 minutes and includes the coach and pool entry. At-home lessons in a private pool are quoted separately.
- From what age can a child start?
- From the first months of life, in the “parent & baby” format (one-on-one with a coach). Independent children's lessons start around age 3; the coach will recommend the exact format in the first lesson.
- Where are the lessons held?
- In four pools in Baku: Fairmont Baku (Flame Towers, Sabail), Aquasport (Yasamal, “6th parallel”), Ivy Garden (behind Caspian Plaza, Nasimi) and Emerald (near Gara Garayev metro). Each branch has its own page with prices and coaches.
- What does the first lesson give you?
- A single lesson is 40 AZN. In the first lesson the coach meets the child, looks at their level, and tells you where to start and how long it will take; they also recommend a program, coach and branch. You pay 40 AZN for a clear plan, not for a “discounted class”.
- Can I reschedule or freeze lessons?
- Yes. Cancel 24 hours ahead — free reschedule, the lesson isn't lost. Packages of 12+ lessons include a freeze of up to 14 days (for example, while a child is ill).
- A doctor recommended swimming for my child. Do you work with such cases?
- Yes, that's the ProFit Health direction: strengthening the back and posture work (7–17), «parent & baby» (0–3), back to the water, lessons for children with special needs. We start with a single lesson (40 AZN); with a confirmed diagnosis — only in agreement with your doctor. The back-and-posture program is run by our partner movement and posture studio Lifeline Studios.
