SWIM LESSONS AT HOLSWORTHY LEISURE CENTRE

At Active Torridge we love teaching swimming!

We believe swimming is an essential life skill that everyone should have the opportunity to explore. Whether you’re a child or an adult, swimming can help with motor development, improve your confidence and help maintain physical and mental wellbeing.

All our swim lessons follow the Swim England Learn to Swim Programme where students are rewarded throughout their progress. The key benefits to this are:

  • Developed by swimming experts – created with professional swimming teachers and coaches by Swim Swim England to provide a pathway of improvement for all stages of experience.
  • Engages and motivates learners of every age and ability – fun lesson content and clear, structured stages mean learners and teachers can easily see and monitor progress. This helps to build learner confidence and competence in the water.
  • Exciting Awards – our comprehensive range of Awards and badges to motivate children at every stage underpin the Programme. Our Awards scheme is one of the most successful in British Sport, recognised by parents, teachers and swimmers alike.

Lessons run throughout the year on a 50 week plan with students being continually assessed and moved through the stages at their own pace based on ability. There is also an opportunity for parents to monitor their child’s progress on our state of the art home portal which you can access at anytime and anywhere online.
