Liz WaldenLearn to ocean swim

Andre and team run a professional, highly informative ocean swimming clinic. I have been casually ocean swimming all my life but learnt so much in 3 hours! I now feel more empowered at the beach and have gained confidence in rough surf.

JenniferNegotiating the surf clinic

My only regret is how long I put of doing this course. I feel so empowered after finally completing a course and am excited about how much I have learnt and the confidence I now feel.
