8 Raja Swimming Lessons

Residents may enquire about 8 Raja swimming lessons at 8 Jalan Raja Udang, Singapore 329217. Exact-project records identify a 26-unit freehold condominium with communal swimming and lap-pool facilities.
Kids, adults, ladies and compatible small groups may be considered after current management approval and an instructor's onsite assessment. Jacuzzi and wading-pool labels do not make those water features automatically suitable for teaching.
Verified development identity
The URA-derived residential inventory records 8 Raja at postcode 329217 with 26 dwellings. PropertyGuru and 99.co agree on 26 units, one 15-storey block, freehold tenure, Popular Land Pte Ltd as developer and completion in 2013.
The structured PropertyGuru address and 99.co support postcode 329217, while one sentence in PropertyGuru's description shows 329271. This guide uses the URA-derived and repeated exact-project postcode 329217 and discloses the stray presentation rather than silently copying it.
8 Raja is the development at 8 Jalan Raja Udang. It is not Global Ville, Cube 8, Eight Riversuites or another “Eight” or Raja-named property. Their facilities and access rules must not be transferred here.
Swimming-pool evidence
PropertyGuru's exact-project facilities record lists a swimming pool and describes an infinity pool with jacuzzi jet spas. Current 99.co records separately list a lap pool, swimming pool, wading pool and jacuzzi for the exact development.
The “infinity” and “lap” labels describe recorded features but do not establish current edge conditions, dimensions or a competition-standard length. The jacuzzi is excluded from proposed lesson use. The wading pool requires confirmation of purpose, depth, permitted users and suitability before any instructional activity.
No reviewed source establishes present length, width, depth profile, lane markings, water temperature, opening hours or maintenance status. No 25-metre, 50-metre, Olympic-size, certified-depth, reserved-lane or exclusive-use claim is made.
Management approval and instructor access
8 Raja is private residential property. A communal pool does not automatically permit paid coaching, an external instructor, lesson equipment or an organised group.
Before booking, the hosting resident should ask the current management office, managing agent, MCST or authorised representative whether the named coach, learner count, lesson format and proposed time are allowed. Confirm visitor registration, identification, advance notice, resident accompaniment, qualifications, insurance and any indemnity requirement.
Check rules on teaching aids, photography, waiting, noise and lessons during busy periods. Current by-laws, notices and security directions override online records, previous entry and this guide.
Twenty-six homes share the facilities. A small development does not guarantee quiet water, automatic availability or exclusive use. No lesson should be described as reserving the pool, jacuzzi or deck.
First-session pool assessment
Before recurring lessons, the instructor should inspect:
- the exact swimming or lap-pool area approved for instruction;
- measured usable length, width and depth transitions;
- infinity-edge, wading-pool and jacuzzi separation;
- steps, ladders, walls, ledges, drains and underwater features;
- water clarity, glare, lighting and deck grip;
- sightlines and resident circulation around the pool;
- barriers, recovery points and emergency equipment;
- lightning shelter and emergency procedures; and
- restrictions on teaching aids and poolside belongings.
The approved area must suit the learner and planned skills. If continuous supervision or safe recovery cannot be maintained, the coach should adapt the lesson, reduce participant count or recommend another venue.
Kids swimming lessons
Young beginners may practise safe entry, bubbles, face immersion, supported balance, floating, kicking and returning to a reachable edge. Start near an assessed wall where the instructor can maintain close support and recovery access.
School-age learners may progress to streamlining, breathing, stroke foundations, treading water and self-rescue habits. Practice distances should follow onsite measurement. A wading-pool label alone does not establish that it is approved or safe for instruction.
A responsible adult should remain reachable throughout the lesson and continue active supervision outside coached time. Lessons improve skills but do not remove drowning risk.
Adult beginner and technique lessons
Adults may enquire without prior swimming experience. Early sessions can cover calm exhalation, balance, floating, recovery to standing and movement near an assessed wall.
Water-confident adults may work on body position, breathing rhythm, propulsion, stroke coordination and efficiency within measured space. A public pool may be preferable for uninterrupted endurance work or goals requiring standard marked distances.
Share relevant medical, sensory or mobility considerations before the first lesson so the instructor can adjust entry, communication, rest and pace.
Ladies and female-instructor requests
Ladies may request a female swimming instructor for comfort or cultural preference. Matching depends on coach availability, schedule, Novena coverage and successful access approval.
The pool remains communal and may be visible from homes or common areas. A female instructor does not create a women-only setting, reserve the water or guarantee privacy.
Private and small-group formats
One-to-one coaching offers focused feedback and flexible pacing. “Private” describes the teaching format and does not mean exclusive use of the 8 Raja pool.
A small group may suit learners of compatible age, confidence and goals. Management must permit it, and the instructor must supervise every participant without obstructing residents. Group size should follow the approved water area and current activity.
Scheduling, weather and interruptions
Weekday or weekend requests depend on pool hours, maintenance, resident use, instructor availability and visitor approval. Share the confirmed access procedure before the coach travels.
Outdoor lessons must stop during unsafe weather. Agree how lightning, heavy rain, poor water quality, maintenance, crowding, closure or failed access affects cancellation and make-up lessons.
Fees and realistic progress
Fees vary with duration, format, participant count, instructor match, travel and access. No 8 Raja-specific price is invented. Review the swimming lesson fees and rates and request a written quotation.
Progress depends on starting ability, attendance, practice, confidence and pool conditions. No fixed lesson count, stroke result or water-safety outcome is guaranteed.
Water safety and SwimSafer
Condo lessons may support confidence, floating, recovery skills, strokes and safer habits. 8 Raja is not represented as an official SwimSafer assessment venue without separate confirmation of the programme, instructor and assessment location.
Lessons do not remove drowning risk. Children and weak swimmers require continuing active supervision outside coached sessions.
Frequently asked questions
Does 8 Raja have a swimming pool?
Yes. PropertyGuru and 99.co exact-project records list a swimming pool. Present condition, availability and coaching permission still require confirmation.
Is the lap pool a standard length?
The reviewed evidence does not establish its current length or lane markings. “Lap pool” must not be interpreted as 25 metres, 50 metres or competition-standard without onsite measurement.
Can lessons use the jacuzzi?
No. This guide excludes the jacuzzi from proposed lesson use. It is not treated as a teaching pool.
Is the wading pool suitable for young children?
Not automatically. Its depth, intended use, barriers, supervision rules and lesson permission must be checked onsite for the individual learner.
Can an external instructor enter automatically?
No. The hosting resident must obtain current management and security approval for the named instructor and arrangement.
Which postcode should be used?
The URA-derived inventory, 99.co and PropertyGuru's structured address support 329217. One descriptive sentence shows 329271; confirm the entrance details recognised by security.
