Surprising kinds of swimming lessons at Carol Saunders Swim School

 

We’re sure you’re all very familiar with our classic beginner swimming lessons for little ones, but did you know that we run many more exciting types of classes which you might not have heard about? During this period away from the pool, take time to discover what else you and your family could try out when we’re back to business as usual!

Artistic swimming lessons

Get into formation and strike incredible poses with our synchronised and artistic swimming lessons! This is a great one to do with friends and fantastic if you’re a fan of dancing. You’ll need to have completed level 7 of the Learn to Swim pathway to take part.

Competitive swimming lessons will teach you how to do lane swimming including lane etiquette, tumble turns and of course, that all-important race-winning swimming technique!

Pamper me swim & facial

One for the parents now- an hour relaxing in a pool you have for private hire plus a gorgeous facial treatment using Tropic luxury skincare!

Unfortunately, we had to postpone starting them, but we’re thinking that we’re all going to appreciate this de-stressor when we start up again!
