About this event
Swimsity x LTL
At Swimsity, we believe that swimming is a lifelong skill that everyone should have the opportunity to learn. Whether you are just starting your swimming journey, looking to improve your technique, or seeking a fun and supportive community to swim with, we are here to help every step of the way.
Following the excitement from the first cycle of swimming lessons, Swimsity are offering an additional block of 6 x 1 hour swimming lessons. The lessons will be instructor led and ideal for beginner/non-swimmer levels including those who may have a fear of water.
This is the perfect opportunity to step outside of your comfort zone, learn a new skill and build stronger connections through swimming in a safe and supported environment.
