OPEN WATER SWIMMING
Open water swimming
courses, lessons and workshops
We organize 6-week courses from early June to mid-October day or weekend workshops Swimming in open water. Swimming in open water has the advantage that you swim in natural water without chemicals. If your goal is to swim outdoors a lot, it is also an advantage to have lessons in the same conditions as where you will swim yourself.
Open water swimming at various locations
Currently the locations where we teach open water courses are:
- Spaarnwoude (near Haarlem)
- Zeeland (Veerse Meer)
- IJburg beach (near Amsterdam)
- Utrecht (to be determined)
Open water swimming
The water quality is good and you can stand there. We have wetsuits in all sizes, which you can use during all lessons for 25 euros if you want. So you don't have to purchase anything and you can first see if open water swimming is something for you.
In the 6-week courses you will build up the relevant swimming stroke (crawl, breaststroke or butterfly) step by step and you will also receive specific tips for swimming in open water. There are also crawl level 2 courses for people who have already completed the basic course with us and want to refine their stroke in combination with learning to deal with the specific features of outdoor swimming.
We work with groups of a maximum of 8 participants and the teacher is always in the water with you.
