About this Event



8-Week Beginner Front Crawl Course

Fridays, 10:30am – Guildford Lido

This course is designed for complete beginners or anyone returning to swimming who wants to build confidence and learn front crawl properly from the ground up.

Across the 8 weeks we’ll focus on:

  • relaxed breathing and body position
  • efficient kick and timing
  • building confidence in the water
  • learning body position fundamentals
  • simple, repeatable stroke technique
  • short, manageable distances that gradually build your endurance

Each session is structured, supportive, and coached in a small group so you always know what to do and why you’re doing it.


Recommended swim kit

You don’t need everything on day one, but over the course you’ll benefit from:

  • Pull buoy
  • Kickboard
  • Fins
  • (Optional later) small technique paddles

You’ll receive a 20% discount code for Zone 3 when you sign up.


Course format
  • Small group (max 8 swimmers)
  • Clear session structure each week
  • Individual feedback within the group

The aim is to give you a relaxed, personal learning environment while still progressing each week.


Price

£160 per person for the full 8-week course.


Your coaches

Your sessions are led by the Speedy Swimming coaching team, headed by:

Nick Harris BA (Hons)
Level 3 British Triathlon Coach
Endurance and open water swim specialist

The team has coached swimmers and triathletes from complete beginners through to long-distance and Ironman athletes, with a strong focus on safe, efficient technique and long-term progress.

If you want to feel more relaxed in the water and finally get to grips with front crawl, this is a really solid place to start.
