You’re never too old to learn to swim
If you’ve made it to adulthood without learning to swim, it may seem too late to start. But maybe it’s time to overcome your fear of water. Here at Teddington Pools & Fitness Centre we have experienced instructors who will help and support you.
But our adult swimming courses aren’t just for people who can’t swim at all. Many adults who know how to swim may not necessarily swim with an efficient swim stroke. If you can swim a bit but have no real technique, perhaps you find it awkward or even downright exhausting. Some lessons on the basics – floating, strokes, and breathing – will help you enjoy your time in the pool so much more.
We offer 6 week courses for beginners, intermediate or advanced swimmers. Our next term will start from 3 November so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Please click here for more information or call the centre reception on 020 8977 9911.
Swimming is a total body workout that leaves you feeling energised and revitalised. So come and try one of our lessons today and get swimming.

Karate classes for kids
Karate is one of the most traditional martial arts, in essence an unarmed-combat system, employing kicking, striking and defensive blocking with arms and legs. There is a big emphasis on mental attitude and courtesy.
Here at Hampton Sports & Fitness Centre our exciting, yet structured and disciplined classes teach children how to focus their attention which improves their ability to learn. We have found that learning builds a real sense of accomplishment in children and with each new accomplishment a child’s self-confidence will grow.
Once we begin to build a child’s confidence we are then able to instil the values of respect, courtesy, honesty and integrity that are the foundations of the martial arts dating back thousands of years.
Karate is available at Hampton at the following times:
Wednesday
Beginners 5+years 6.00-7.00pm
Intermediate 5+years 7.00-8.00pm
