Through carefully structured sessions led by qualified instructors, children are introduced to the water step-by-step, helping them feel safe and supported from the very beginning.
Now is the perfect time to start your child’s journey - giving them the confidence and skills they’ll build on for years to come.

Did you know…
Rowing delivers a full body workout, engaging upper body, lower body and core at the same time - more muscles than almost any other cardio machine.
It also improves muscular endurance, not just cardio fitness, making it a hybrid strength and cardio machine.
Rowing is gentle on joints compared to high impact cardio, making it suitable for a wide range of users.
Rowing works 86% of your muscles in one smooth motion - power, strength and cardio in one machine.
