Learn2Swim Open Water - IHYC is hosting swimming lessons!

5 Feb by Peter Ellenby

IHYC is hosting a Learn2Swim Open Water program—a series of swim lessons running throughout the week of Monday 2 March to Sunday 8 March 2026.

The program is delivered by a qualified coach from SWIM WELL (https://www.swimwell.com.au/), focusing on:
• improving technique
• breathing skills and rhythm
• overcoming fear or anxiety in open water
• confidence in waves and/or deeper water
• sighting, navigation or general open water safety

The program is being managed by Roz McIntyre (Salty & IHYC member), with the week organised according to the swimmer's level and current skills.

If you are interested in Learn2Swim program, could you please indicate your interest by Saturday 14 February via an email Roz (roz.mcintyre@gmail.com) and including the following information:

- a short background on your current swimming skills
- what you hope to achieve in the lessons
- your availability – weekends? mornings … whatever ….

Roz will then group people to appropriate lessons and get back to you with dates and times.

BTW – Saturday 14 February is also the date for our fantastic Wreck2Reef Open Water Swim – if you have not entered already, you can do so at https://ihyc.com.au/wreck-2-reef-event
