Warning
Front crawl swimming is addictive!
"Beware…. Heather’s enthusiasm for open water swimming is highly contagious.  Once she’s shown you the ropes, you just can’t stop!  Heather’s patience, encouragement and humour made me feel at ease and very welcome.  I can’t thank Heather for introducing me (a 50 year old, not-very-fit woman) to open water swimming. If anyone is considering dipping their toes in the water, you won’t be disappointed if you contact Heather."

"Heather has literally got me from the pool into lakes and I’m about to do my 2nd half ironman swim and 2nd boxend triathlon, thanks Heather!💪🏻"

Annie, Hertfordshire
"I completed the intro course and now feel so much more confident in the water. Having never had a swim lesson before, and only being able to swim two lengths before needing to stop and have a rest, Heather patiently and expertly taught me techniques and methods to help. Within five weeks I went from 2 lengths to 60 lengths non stop. If you want to feel more confident and learn outdoor swimming techniques, this is the course and coach for you!"
