Learn To Swim Day
Everybody Sport and Recreation’s Aquatics Manager says,“Swimming is such an essential life skill. Swimming is not only used to keep fit and healthy, but it can help save a life. Swimming offers a variety of different pathways which range from social swimming through to competitive/elite swimming.
Everybody Sport & Recreation recognise the importance of this life skill and want to bring Cheshire East community together through swimming by offering ‘Learn to Swim’ lessons through our Everybody SWIM scheme, providing opportunities for all ages and abilities.”
Swimming will develop:
- Competence in the water
- Water confidence
- Safe swimming
- Enjoyment in the water
- Likelihood of lifelong participation
- Likelihood of leading a healthy lifestyle
How can we help?
Everybody are proud to deliver the ASA Learn to Swim Pathway, the all- inclusive programme takes the non-swimmer from his or her first splash to developing confidence and competence in the water. Swimming is available to children of any age, size or ability.
Our junior lessons start with classes for pre school children either in Adult and Child classes for the younger children to our Duckling classes for children from 3 years old.
Once children are 4 years or older they can progress to our main Learn to Swim scheme programme developing the basic and essential skills required for building confidence and technique.
Once they have mastered the fundamental elements of swimming they will be ready to move on to our comprehensive programme of advanced lessons. Children are given the opportunity to work on their skills through our competitive swimming, Rookie Lifeguard, Mini Polo, Aqua Fun and Flip-n-Fun programmes, some of which are delivered by our partner swimming clubs.

ADULT SWIMMING LESSONS
It is never too late to learn how to swim!
At Everybody we understand how daunting it can be for adults who are not yet swimming, therefore we provide Adult Swimming Lessons for both beginners and improvers.
Teachers at Everybody are experienced, fully qualified and trained by the Amateur Swimming Association. Swimming provides all the health benefits of regular exercise along with the mental health benefits. Your body is naturally buoyant in water, therefore this also helps people who struggle with land based exercising and is useful for people with arthritis, back and weight problems.
