Whipperslashers Offer Swimming Lessons In Woking, Surrey

Children

For beginners, our classes enable children to gain confidence in the water, independently swim, and most importantly, how to keep themselves safe in pools and open water whilst having fun. Our classes develop their floatation, leg kick, arm pull and rotation into star floats.

For children already experienced in the water, we not only aim to teach them effective technique in front crawl, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly, but also encourage a love for swimming and key safety knowledge and skills necessary for enjoying open water activities on holidays and future life.

Toddlers

We offer adult and child classes for Toddlers and Pre-Schoolers. Skills start at the very basics that even the most terrified can start to learn, Fun activities and songs will create a trust between parent, child and the water.

With help from the teacher we can help you safely and correctly build their swimming technique and lead them to independent swimming lessons.
