WATER SAFETY / RIP AWARENESS COURSE & STROKE TECHNIQUE SESSION
Water safety / rip current talk and then a talk on stroke technique, followed by a practical session and feedback (approx 90-120 mins in total).
Water safety talk : lasts around 30-40 minute. We look at reading the conditions, planning your swim, rip currents and how they work, staying safe in the water, what to do if you get stuck in a rip etc.
10 minute break - feel free to bring coffee and cake (the essentials!)
Technical Session : aimed at bridging the gap between breaststroke/bobbing around side of swimming - aiming towards front crawl &/or looking to improve basic front crawl stroke/general progression, eventually allow more adventurous swims and better technique…

Coaching and guide for the session is :
Tom Foreman - Tom has worked as a professional lifeguard in Cornwall and Australia for over 10 years, covering Manly Beach, every beach in the Newquay area and nearly every beach in the Penzance/Penwith area. He’s won national age group run-swim-run titles, as well as represented Cornwall swimming (as a teenager) for over 5 years….having also represented Cornwall at Waterpolo and Surf Lifesaving.
Our sessions are typically quite informal. Tom is fairly laid back and makes each session as inclusive and…fun (quite honestly) as possible. Encouraging questions during the sessions and no one session ever seems to be the same, as the content quite often follows the groups needs. There are no requirements to participate in all of the sessions (ie. if a participant wasn’t entirely comfortable with the conditions they wouldn’t be expected to participate) and safety is always our main priority during everything we do.
Session cost is £34.99 and we’ll be running sessions at 9.30-11.30am, 12-2pm and 2.30-4.30pm on…
