DISCLAIMER

What about swimming ability?

Swimming ability is not essential for the class at Noosa Springs. However, if you don’t feel confident in deep water, you must let the instructor know, and remind her at each class. Most of the pool is easy to stand in and we always use floatation devices where it is deeper. Even in the deepest part, you could easily jump to the surface for a breath.

Hope to see you at the pool x
