LESSONS – AQUATICS ACADEMY

Our Swim Academy will cater for anyone of any ability. Total beginner or nervous adult? You are especially welcome to learn at your own pace in a relaxed environment and with others of a similar standard. Maybe you can already swim but need some work on your stroke technique? Or perhaps you’d like to get faster for triathlon or open water swimming! No problem. Our team of qualified swim instructors and coaches will help you to become stronger and more efficient in the water. We are very pleased with our results in tutoring adults and children and we offer group classes, one to one, and two to one instruction.
