Open Water Swimming
Have you ever thought about taking your swimming outdoors? Based at Rock and River Outdoor Pursuits, we offer a safe, serene environment for swimmers of all levels. The Lake is clean and beginner-friendly, providing the perfect backdrop for our calm and inclusive coaching philosophy.
Whether you are:
• Transitioning from the pool to the great outdoors
• Prepping for a vacation and wanting to improve your confidence and water safety
• A junior or adult swimmer eager to discover a new sport
• A triathlete looking to sharpen your competitive edge
• An endurance or competitive swimmer looking to build your stamina and technique
We offer both private and group coaching sessions available throughout the week. No matter your goal, we’re here to help you find your rhythm in the water.
Immerse yourself in cold water therapy
Cold Water Immersion Therapy
For many, the draw of the water isn't about how far you can swim, but how the water makes you feel. Our cold water therapy sessions are designed for those who want to prioritise the restorative side of immersion. We focus on the science of the cold and the mastery of the body’s natural response, offering a calm space to explore the profound health benefits of the lake.
Whether you are looking to:
• Learn to safely immerse in cold water and become comfortable with the temperature
• Master breath control techniques to calm the nervous system and manage the "cold shock"
• Unlock mindfulness and find a deep sense of presence through natural immersion
• Boost your physical recovery and harness the anti-inflammatory benefits of the cold
• Improve your mental well-being and experience a natural, revitalising endorphin release
