A leading health club brand has launched of its new baby and toddler swimming lesson programme, rolling out across all 15 clubs, including Bolton in the coming months.

The classes will be delivered in Total Fitness’ family pools, one of three pools in each club, and will be available for three age categories: 0-12 months, 12-24 months, and 24-36 months.

Each 40-minute swim class is designed to be both fun and educational and will require an adult in the water alongside the baby or toddler.

Total Fitness will offer a unique ten-minute session for dedicated feedback included within the 40-minute lesson.

Here parents will be able to chat with their swim coach and receive the important feedback, tips, and advice on babies’ weekly progress.

There will also be a recognition programme acknowledging when key achievements and milestones have been reached.

The baby swim classes will operate for 50 weeks of the year and will be discounted for members whilst swimming lessons will also be available for non-members.

Kerry Curtis, head of brand development at Total Fitness, said: “We're really excited to launch our Baby and Toddler Swim Programme later this Spring.

“As with any new product development at Total Fitness, we start with insight first.

“We spoke to a lot of parents to understand how we can create a product that truly meets their needs as well as their baby.

“We know how important our pools are to our members, 77 per cent of our new joiners cite the pool as the main reason for joining, so the launch of our Baby Swim Programme is just the first enhancement of our poolside experience that strengthens our commitment to lifelong fitness.”

Bookings are expected to start later this Spring and Bolton parents can register their interest here (www.totalfitness.co.uk/baby-swim-lessons/).

They are also looking to hire Bolton residence to become part of the baby swim team and anyone inserted in available roles can visit here.
