Swimming is a life skill

The ability to swim well is an asset for life and one that can give safety, pleasure and potentially, health and fitness benefits for the whole family throughout their lives.
H2O Swimming Works recently commenced operating from the new Goodfellow Aquatic Centre at Kardinia International College, Bell Post Hill. They cater for all levels of Learn to Swim, and squad training from ages 2.5 years onward, right through to those wanting to race or those simply wanting to swim for fitness.
There is no-one more qualified to teach swimming in Geelong than the owner, Anita Killmier.
Anita was a National Gold medallist swimmer and water polo player with a background in primary teaching.
She has five generations of swimmers and coaches in her family and still swims for fitness and the occasional Masters competition.
Group and private lessons are available along with holiday intensives. Holiday intensives are a proven way to fast track progress and with summer coming and plenty of fun in and around water to be had, this is an ideal time to get swimming.
Swimming as a fitness sport is known as one of the best forms of exercise as you age, and increasingly on the ‘bucket list’ of many.
Adults are well catered for at H2O with lessons for the most fearful beginner to fitness squads that cater for all abilities and interests.
Those swimmers both young and old wanting to train for competition have pathways in place to reach State and National levels via the MH2O Swimming Club.
Programme details and inquiry/booking form can be found at www.h2oswimming.com.au
