Any recommendations? Thanks We're members of Virgin Active Gym, and they do individual swimming tuition, presumably aimed at whatever level. It's an excellent gym so worth finding out.

purdyamos Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I found this thread on Sheffield Sports and Activities section. They also do adult lessons at Heeley Baths behind the picture house on Abbeydale Road. I think they are two or three times a week. I can't imagine any beginners class would have too many people in it, or at least you'd all be in the same boat (as it were) so you'd quickly get over any self-consciousness.

DaFoot Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I found this thread on Sheffield Sports and Activities section. That session is definatly worth a try, I went last week...several non-swimmers, only 2 or 3 improvers. Maybe 10 learners in the pool to 2 instructors.
