Our Junior Memberships start from 11 years old. All ages can use the pool but we do have adult to child ratios in place.
Most children are ready for swim lessons by the age of 4, at which point they can typically learn basic water survival skills such as floating, treading water and getting to an exit point. By age 5 or 6, they can usually master the front crawl. The important thing to remember is it’s never too late to learn how to swim!
We encourage everyone to learn at their own pace. Some beginners are more naturally confident in the water and might progress faster. Others are slower to learn new skills but can quite often become stronger and more proficient swimmers as they develop.
All our swimming lessons take place at Gwyn Evans Leisure & Activity Centre, Heol Cefn, Gwersyllt, Wrexham, LL11 4HG. You can book swimming lessons at our sister sites in Wrexham, Waterworld Leisure & Activity Centre and Chirk Leisure & Activity Centre.
