Pool to pond workshop

Service Description

Are you nervous about swimming outdoors? You may have an event coming up or like the idea of swimming in open water. Front crawl in the sea, lake, river or loch is a bit different to front crawl in a swimming pool - there are no lane ropes for starters! This workshop will look at how to tweak your stroke so that you can swim smoothly and confidently in open water. We'll also look at specific open water skills like sighting, and if you want to swim in a swimming wetsuit for the first time, this is also a good opportunity to see how it affects your stroke. You will need to be able to swim front crawl for 250m (10 lengths) in a pool. Wetsuits or skins (no wetsuits) welcome.

Cancellation policy

Life happens and sometimes, with the best will in the world, one of us will have to cancel or rearrange a session. You cancel: If you need to cancel a session, please let me know at least 24-hours beforehand so that I can give the slot to somebody else. If there are less than 24 hours to go, I won’t be able to give you a refund. I cancel: I will only cancel if there are weather warnings, the water quality is below par or if I need to deal with illness or an emergency! I will either reschedule or refund your sessions. Occasionally, I may need to cancel if there aren't enough people to make up a course or session.
