Mermaid
Mermaid Lessons
Mermaids are renowned for their stunning, sparkling tails and their natural ability to swim through the water gracefully at high speeds. It’s normal to watch mermaids in cartoons or movies and feel envious of their swimming skills – we know we certainly have! Fortunately for your kids, the opportunity to experience swimming like a mermaid is now a reality thanks to our Mermaid Lessons!
This fun activity allows young swimmers to wear a special mermaid tail outfit and learn how to swim like a real-life mermaid or merman! Our mermaid lessons last 90 mins during which each attendee will be shown how to channel their inner mermaid and become confident at mermaid swimming. This includes:
- How to correctly put the tail outfit on
- Safely entering and exiting the water
- Moving safely and effectively whilst in the water
- Mermaid swimming skills and routines
Each Mermaid Lesson takes place in a safe environment and there will be two adults, including at least one qualified instructor, present in the pool at all times.
Groups are limited to 6 which allows for each mermaid-in-training to receive the level of teaching and guidance they may require.
These fun and structured sessions run during school half terms and summer holidays and are held at Talbot Primary School, conveniently located for families in Bournemouth and Poole.
