Learn to swim this Easter
The Easter holidays are nearly here and if you’re looking for something fun and energetic to keep the kids occupied then look no further than Teddington Pools & Fitness Centre.
We are running two weeks of swimming crash courses. A short intensive course is often the best way to learn to swim or develop your skills. Courses are available for all ages and abilities including beginners through to improvers.
An intensive swimming course will benefit a child in many ways. They will learn skills faster, gain more confidence in their stroke and build confidence quicker.
