Winter Swimming Workshop

Do you fancy taking the plunge year round? Feeling the chilly zing of winter waters, maybe even breaking some ice? Why not join Peak Swims for a day learning why and how to swim through the winter.

We'll be based in Curbar for the day with some classroom time in the morning before heading out for a swim in the afternoon. The swim will either be in a river or a moortop pool depending on the weather and water levels and will involve a short flat walk to the swim spot. 

On the day we'll cover

  • The benefits of winter swimming

  • What to expect from your winter swims

  • Winter specific risk assessing

  • How to deal with emergencies, including identifying and managing hypothermia

  • Winter specific swim kit

You'll also get some take home resources and photos of the swim to look back on.

There will of course be plentiful homemade cake to keep you going through the day. There'll be a range of neoprene socks, gloves and shoes to borrow and wetsuits are available to hire. 

This workshop is limited to 6 places to keep it intimate and, importantly, as safe as possible.
