Adult swimming lessons at Riverside
We believe that everyone should learn to swim and that it should be fun. At Riverside Leisure Centre you can learn a valuable life skill in a fun and relaxed environment with our adults only swimming lessons.
Whether you are a complete beginner and would like water confidence, or whether you are trying to perfect your technique, our adults only lessons will suit you.
Our Swim School lessons run every week for 30 minutes per lesson either in the main pool, or the learner pool. You will be in a small, friendly class of adults with a similar ability. Our expert teachers will guide you through your lessons, while you make new friends in a community environment.

- free swimming during any public swim session
- quick, easy direct debit payments spread the cost of payments across the year
