Pool courses
We mainly run pool courses at Lancing College (north of Shoreham Airport, just off the A27, BN15 0RW).
These range from training sessions for those who have entered swim events or want to swim for fitness in a group, or smaller groups for less experienced swimmers who want to learn front crawl or improve their technique. Pool and seaswimmers welcome.
Our emphasis is on technique first. We pride ourselves on creating a friendly and welcoming environment. For some of our regular crew it is as much about the social side and maintaining fitness for life than it is about entering events.
Having said that all our coaches have been swimming a long time and have amassed lots of knowledge through personal experience as well as hours on the poolside.
Our Lancing courses run termly at the moment. Next intake will be for April 2024. Please get in touch if you are interested in being put on the waiting list for that.
I also run shorter courses at a pool on a private estate at Bantridge, 35 minutes drive from Shoreham. These are on an ad hoc basis. Drop me a line or keep an eye on my social media for details.
Individual lessons outside – stroke technique and confidence building
Currently I charge £45 an hour for a 1:1 session. I’m pretty flexible on times so drop me a message.
Introduction to Seaswimming sessions
These sessions cover:
- Suitable sea conditions for swimming
- Tides and currents
- Tips for sea swimming vs pool swimming
- Equipment
- A short swim
These are £40 for 45mins 1:1 or contact me if you’d like to do with a friend or friends and I will adjust the length of time and price up accordingly.
Small groups outside
I take small groups in open water – up to 6 per group depending on conditions and the ability of swimmers. I run these on an ad hoc basis, for our pool swimmers and for groups of friends. Let me know if you fancy a group session and I’ll give you options.
All sessions are in Shoreham-by-Sea. Either in the open sea or in the harbour.
