Details
Program information
Welcome to Sandringham Life Saving Club's Silver Salties program!
The Silver Salties 'Be Confident Swimming in the Bay' class is all about enjoyment, fitness and social interaction with like-minded people in a safe and welcoming environment.
Our Swimming classes are intended for swimmers of all levels and are designed to help build confidence to swim in Open Water (in the Bay). The swim sessions will be hosted by Peter Hendriks. Peter’s goal is to educate swimmers on how to enjoy swimming as an activity where each person can swim efficiently at whatever speed they choose to swim at, either for performance or pleasure. There is no better excerise as we age because swimming in non-weight-bearing and is friendly on the joints!
The Silver Salties swimming session will run every Wednesday morning at 10am starting on 15th December and continuing from 12th January 2022. The swim sessions will be held in front of the Sandringham Life Saving Club.
