Whether it’s building water confidence, developing technique, improving fitness or learning essential safety skills, swimming is one of the most valuable abilities for both children and adults - and winter is the ideal time to keep learning.
At Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre in Ultimo, our heated pools and experienced instructors create a supportive environment where swimmers can make real progress through the cooler months and head into summer feeling confident, capable and ready to enjoy the water.
And now, there's even more reason to get started.
A free sauna pass when you enrol
For a limited time, new Learn to Swim enrolments at Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre will receive a complimentary 10-visit sauna pass, valued at over $145.*
This exclusive bonus adds an extra wellbeing benefit to your routine, helping you unwind while developing essential swimming skills.
How it works
Enrolling a child? One parent or guardian receives the complimentary sauna pass to enjoy some 'me time' outside swim lessons.
Enrolling as an adult? Your complimentary sauna visits can be used at any time, but they also make the perfect post-lesson reward - helping you relax, reset and recover after time in the pool.
The pass is valid for 10 weeks from the date of enrolment, encouraging a regular weekly routine that supports both swimming progression and personal wellbeing.
