Adult swim coaching, both in the pool and open water. Our passion is to show how people can safely transition from pool based to open water swimming safely.

There's simply nothing like it. FitandAbel specialises in open water swimming – we truly believe swimming is one of the best forms of exercise available. We can help you with adult learn to swim, open water swimming, competitive triathlon and open water or pool swimming aspirations. The pool is normally where swimmers are ‘born’. A pool provides a safe environment to get comfortable in the water,

One mug. Every part of your day.

From the first email to the last lap, your new FitandAbel Stainless Steel Thermal Mug goes wherever you do…keeping your drink hot (or cold) through the pool session, in the office, on the trail or for that well-earned post-swim brew lakeside.

Purchase online through the TeamUp Store: https://goteamup.com/p/403516-fitandabel-nz-ltd/c/store?type=products

12oz and 14oz options available. Numbers are limited. Once they are gone, they are gone!

💥 Just landed! 💥

Essential FitandAbel equipment as we move towards spring.

After being in the open water, especially the early season water temperatures, once you come out nothing beats a nice warm drink in your own thermal mug.

Which colour is your favourite? 🤔

Strictly limited numbers…once they’ve gone they’re gone. Purchase details coming very soon!

Small group, picturesque views, zero rush.

This is what a break from routine is supposed to look like — trail snacks, rolling farmland and native bush stretching ahead, and nothing pulling at your attention. That’s the whole point of Fish out of Water.

Just over 3 weeks until our inaugural weekend hiking adventure.

The eighth wonder… 😉 Swimming through a flooded canyon isn’t something you get to experience every day.

This is a unique location — and it’s just one of the many incredible swim spots on our Waitaki Valley Adventure.

Lakes Benmore and Aviemore. Two lakes, endless swim options, five unforgettable days.
9 spots left for March 2027. Come find out why people keep coming back.

Who remembers this gem? And what was its name?

Created by the amazing Pip Tunstall, and a key training tool for our elite training squads.

Some days just ask you to stop and look around.

Our Fish out of Water hiking adventure (2 nights/1 day) encourages you to do just that for a weekend, inviting you to slow down and connect with nature.
Coffee included, phone forgotten.
12 spots only, a few already taken.
