Ready to enjoy the magic of winter swimming? Join expert open-water swim coach Helen Webster for this essential 2-hour classroom workshop exclusively at The Lake. Designed for new and experienced swimmers alike, this session gives you the confidence and knowledge to embrace cold water safely. This is a theory classroom workshop only; no swim is included, so a separate Swim Session ticket is required if you would like to swim.
Swimming through the winter months is an amazing, invigorating experience, but it can be daunting. This two-hour expert workshop gives you the essential knowledge, practical tips and confidence you need as the water gets chillier.
The classroom-based session is run by open-water swim coach and sports journalist Helen Webster, with time for discussion and questions.
Learn how to assess water and weather conditions, choose suitable kit, understand how your body responds to cooler water, enter safely, avoid cold water shock, acclimatise, recognise hypothermia, and re-warm safely after a swim.
The workshop takes place in a heated on-site classroom at South West Maritime Academy. Tea and coffee are provided. No swim is included; please book a separate Swim Session ticket if you wish to swim.
