SwimWise Scotland

🎶🐰Hop little bunnies, hop, hop, hop! 🐰🎶

Fridays = SWIM DAYS!

Louise teaches our morning sessions at Macdonald Resort, and Alysha runs the lessons at our private Glenmore Lodge pool

Lots of little swimmers and plenty of splashing fun in our parent & baby and preschool swim lessons 🏊‍♀️🐰🐰🏊‍♀️

💜💛 International Women’s Day 💛💜

The children in our lessons don’t just learn to swim. They see women leading, teaching, making decisions and running things.

Outside of lessons and lane ropes, this is us:

🦸‍♀️Louise: "I'm a girl who likes to travel, experience different cultures, food and drink. Will always try to give something a go! As a working mum life is always busy."

👩‍🏫Alysha: "I’ve been lucky to live in the Middle East and experience life in a completely different culture. I’m a mum of three and recently retrained as a primary school teacher, so life is full and busy - but I love helping children grow in confidence and believe in themselves."

🧞‍♀️Sarah: "I’m happiest outdoors - on the mountains or by the water. I love trying new things and pushing myself out of my comfort zone. Life is busy, but I’m always up for the next adventure."

Representation matters - even on poolside.

*** We’re evolving! ***

We’re excited to share that Speyside Swimming Academy is becoming SwimWise Scotland.

As we prepare to register our swim school as a Community Interest Company (CIC), we’ve chosen a new name that reflects our renewed focus on swimming inclusion, accessibility, and community benefit.

This marks a change in business structure—but not in our teaching spirit. SwimWise Scotland will build on everything we’ve created through Speyside Swimming Academy: swimmer-centred instruction, local knowledge, and a strong sense of community, while expanding our reach and deepening our public value.

Our new contact email, website, and branding will roll out in the coming weeks, but our mission remains the same: supporting swimmers of all ages and abilities with care, clarity, and inclusivity.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

Always Swimming Safely,
Sarah, Louise & Alysha
