INTENSIVE SCHOOL HOLIDAY CRASH COURSES
⏲ 5 classes in 5 days lasting 30 minutes each 👨👩👧👦 Groups & Private Classes Available. These are a great way to get intensive instruction and either concentrate on specific skills needed or to have a great kick start into the world of swimming.
CRASH COURSE BENEFITS
Most swimmers remember only 25% of their #SwimmingLesson when they attend once a week, but if they attend daily that can rise to 75%!
They're a great way to:
🏊♀️ start the journey of learning to swim
🏊♂️ continue the swimmer’s progression or
🏊 work on a specific skill to pass their current level.
*Please contact us direct to book a private class for 2 people.
We run our Intensive Crash Courses across the Summer, Easter and Half Term holidays and usually run from 9am to 12noon with the usual set up of 30 min sessions of a mix of groups and private lessons. If you wish to book a 2-2-1 to just contact the office directly.
May Half Term 2024 Dates: Monday 27th May - 2nd June 2024
Each class (groups of 4 and private 1-2-1 classes available to book*) is 30 minutes and you'll need to book your current class name and ability. Please do not book higher or lower ability classes to suit friends and family as this will not benefit our swimmers and the classes will be reorganised on the first day to suit the program. All bookings are made through the home portal and a full payment must be made to secure the space. All spaces are booked on a first come first served basis.

PARENT AND BABY SWIMMING CLASSES
We offer all products within these pools from Parent and Baby classes up to and including STA Shark 3 within a 1 hr squad like session.
Classes for all parents to enjoy the water with their babies and toddlers from ages 3 months to 3 years. We ask all children to wear the double nappy system, which is a disposable/reusable swim nappy underneath a happy nappy/splashabout neoprene nappy. You can buy these directly on their website or via Amazon etc. The nappy should be hugging the legs and waist.
We highly recommend a splash about baby wrap to wear over top to keep them warm particularly for younger babies, so you don’t have to fight to get their wee arms into the arm holes! For older children the all-in-one suits or the wetsuits are great, as are the baby wraps still.
