Swimming Lessons - WLC

Swimming has always been an important part of Windsor Leisure Centre's programme and during the last 20 years we have developed and maintained very high standards of tuition and swimming instruction. The use of our 25 metre pool with moveable floor enables us to adjust the depth and length to suit all ages, abilities and activities.

We are also very pleased to be partners with Windsor Swimming Club, who are a competitive club up to National Standard.

Due to the extensive programme which caters for all ages and abilities a PDF download version of our leaflet is available at the bottom of this page.  You can also contact 01753 850004 for a lessons brochure to be posted to you.
