This is why we call her Lovely Liz - she makes us smile, laugh and learn through fun ways 💜 We feel so lucky to have her teaching here not only on a Friday but also a Tuesday now too! Thanks for being so fabulous Liz 💦

✨ Why be boring… when you can bling? 🥽💎

Yesterday, one of my younger students inspired me to try a pair of Bling2O goggles, partly for a laugh and partly because, well… why not? 😂

I'm no goggle expert and don't pretend to be! I still train as I always have, in my trusty Speedo goggles to train with, and that's not changing. But I absolutely think these have their place.

For me, swimming is about breaking down barriers, building confidence and allowing everyone to be themselves in the water.

If a bit of sparkle makes someone smile, feel confident or enjoy swimming that little bit more, I'm all for it!

Equally, I know not everyone can afford bling goggles, and that's absolutely fine too. You don't need anything fancy to belong in the pool.

Sparkly, plain, colourful or practical… there's room for everyone.

Because swimming should never be about fitting in. It should be about feeling comfortable being yourself.

You do you in the pool! 💖🥽

We are so lucky to have the lovely Liz teaching here at OV 💙

📣💦 PARTNERSHIP IN ACTION! 💦📣

👀 Who said tutors don’t teach anymore or get stuck in?!

Well… Liz certainly didn’t get that memo! 😂🏊‍♀️

We’re absolutely delighted to be continuing our partnership with Orchard View next term, starting NEXT WEEK! 💙

It’s a real pleasure to support Orchard View in creating more opportunities for people to get active, build confidence and enjoy the water!
And when they needed support with ANOTHER day of Learn to Swim, our very own Liz was ready to jump in! 💪💦

Katherine at Orchard View has asked Liz to do the following.. and it’s incredible to work with !

🏊‍♀️ Tuesday Learn to Swim? FULL! ✅
🏊 Friday swimming lessons? FULL! ✅
💦 NEW Aquacise- Tuesday ? Now a REGULAR session, with just 3 spaces left! 🚨
🪧 SO THIS IS YOUR SIGN! What are you waiting for?!
📩 Message Katherine at Orchard View to grab one of those final spaces!

💙 A huge thank you to Orchard View for the continued partnership. It's an absolute pleasure to support you!

👏 Partnerships that work. Tutors who get stuck in. Communities that benefit!
