Training in water

Our pool is totally unique – say no more! Its calming atmosphere makes the pool an ideal place for working out. The pool is 20 metres long and the water is heated to a temperature of 26º C.

There are many good reasons for exercising in water. Exercising in water alleviates strain in sore joints. For example, if you weigh 65 kg on land, you weigh 9 kg in water. Water provides resistance for your muscles and makes them stronger.

You can swim on your own or sign up for one of our classes with an instructor. During the summer, we offer open-water swimming workouts at Svanemølle Beach.

Use of swimming caps is required.

    The training
    We’ll provide you with great tips on how to get the best experience in open water. Yes, there is a difference between swimming in open water and in a pool. We will train everything from breathing, self-rescue, navigation, active recovery, crawl technique, endurance, and trip planning – with a focus on distance and safety. In addition to the basic techniques, you'll also receive helpful tips and tricks to get out of the water faster than your competitor/friend.

    The only requirement for this class is that you can swim 300 meters without stopping – and of course, the correct equipment.

    There are changing facilities when the kiosk is open. The instructor will assist you in getting into the wetsuit during the first few sessions until we’re all comfortable. After that, we’ll meet dressed for the session's start.

    7/5 KICK OFF
    From 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM, we will hold a KICK OFF in the pool where you can try your wetsuits in the water, and we’ll talk about the equipment.
