Overall, not sure this is really effective at teaching swimming, although it works fine as a complicated waterfall mist generator. I suspect that the problem is that a pressure plate set to open at 7/7 will close again at 6/7 depth, so you're only dumping one-seventh of the chamber's water, and (I further suspect) that swimming training correlates with the depth and force of the water. So it might be possible to get this basic design to work, but you'd have to really streamline it to dump and drain a massive amount of water over your dwarves, quickly. | Overall, not sure this is really effective at teaching swimming, although it works fine as a complicated waterfall mist generator.
