Is your challenge to complete an open water event, like the BHF Pier to Pier, or a triathlon? Or you simply want to be able to enjoy the sea with a stronger swimming stroke? Do you want to improve your front crawl technique at your pace, your terms, your lesson? Would you prefer to undertake this challenge in a friendly, relaxed environment with like-minded people? Then your journey begins with Wave 23. Finding enjoyment, relaxation and ultimately fitness from swimming is what we are all about.
We run 6 week front crawl workshops (worked around terms/school holidays) on Thursday evenings at 8:30pm at the BCS swimming pool on College Road, Southbourne from October to May. They are group sessions covering all abilities, the pool has four lanes which we split into similar abilities and the sessions are managed and run by two or three swimming coaches depending on numbers and swimmers. The sessions are planned with the goal of swimming in the open water in mind, be it sea or lake.
By empowering you with the knowledge and confidence in the pool, you will get a chance to continue with our open water group in some sessions in the sea on Tuesday evenings at Southbourne from May.
Our teachers/coaches are STA qualified, both for the pool and open water and are fully insured and DBS checked.
