Pool2lake Open Water

Pool2lake Open Water Pool2lake offers professional pool & open water coaching for adults. Hello, my name is Heather Schelhase and I was born in Johnannesburg, South Africa.

We moved to the UK in 2004, wanting an adventure and still living it. I got into teaching swimming in 2009 and have not looked back. I have always loved swimming. I had wonderful swimming opportunities when my family and I lived in Connecticut for 2 years and was able to swim in the Long Island Sound and a variety of rivers. Nothing better than swimming with the sun beating down on you and no pool walls.

27 pool2lake swimmers arrived in Copenhagen and swam the TrygFonden Christiansborg Rundt . Lots of PB’s, tackling the dark which was slightly scary and some swimmers getting their first medal. An outstanding weekend. Thank you to you all. Where to next year?

TrygFonden Copenhagen Swim 2km.

I enjoyed the night swim even though I couldn’t see where I was going because of my tinted goggles. Swimming in the dark was a challenge for some swimmers but everyone gave it a good go.

A photo that makes me so proud 💙

Amazing swimmers coming together, all sharing one love of swimming and the community and team spirit that comes with it.

Pool2Lake squads mixing, new swimmers jumping in, and familiar faces returning after time away. This really is what it’s all about.

Different squads, different journeys, one swimming community. 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️💙

We definitely took over today! 💙🌊

The Swim clinic in March was a great positive success.

This one day swim clinic is designed for triathletes, open water swimmers, long-distance swimmers who want to improve their front crawl technique, efficiency and confidence in the water.
The day includes 2 pool based sessions, underwater filming, individual video analysis, and land based education with 2 speakers.

This is not a high volume training day. The focus is on technique, skill development, and stroke correction. DM to secure a place.
