INTRODUCTION TO OPEN-WATER SWIMMING
As part of our ongoing efforts to ensure more people can enjoy the water safely we are pleased to announce the first two ‘Introduction to Open Water Swimming’ sessions.
Join other new open-water swimmers for an evening talk and dip, designed to give you the knowledge and confidence to enjoy open-water swimming at our beautiful venue.
We’ll meet up under the marquee by the waterside for a relaxed talk and Q&A from open-water swimming coach Helen Webster. In this part of the evening we’ll cover:
o All about South West Maritime Academy as a swim venue
o Staying safe in open water
o What kit you can use
o Conquering nerves and anxiety
o Avoiding cold water shock and hypothermia
o Top tips for warming up after your swim
o Q&A (no question is too daft!)
After our talk, we’ll put on our swim kit and supported by a team of friendly regular SWMA swimmers and safety boat, we’ll go for a short dip/swim together. Swimmers will be asked to use a tow float for reassurance and safety.
We will end the evening with some hot chocolate and cake, sharing our experiences of your first time in the water!
By the end of the session, you’ll feel ready to come back again and enjoy a summer of swimming with us.
Things to bring with you:
o Swimwear and/or wetsuit
o Swim cap and goggles (if you use them)
o Flip flops
o Towel and changing robe (if you have one)
o Tow float (if you have one, we have spares!)
o Warm clothing
