Hi! I’m Heather,
I’m a fully qualified Aqua Fitness instructor. I absolutely love helping people feel confident and strong in the water. My classes are fun, energetic, and designed to leave you feeling like you’ve had a real workout, without the strain on your joints.

Meet our instructors: Sharne

I was a competitive swimmer and absolutely loved it. Sharing my knowledge, experiences, and passion for swimming with others is something I deeply enjoy. I’m motivated by seeing the progress in the kids I teach, knowing that I’m helping them grow both in and out of the water.
Beyond the pool, I cherish spending time with my family, staying active, and relaxing with my dogs. I also enjoy reading and indulging in a little retail therapy.
I’m passionate about giving back to the community and have a strong interest in working with underprivileged children. I believe that everyone deserves the chance to learn and grow through sports. Additionally, I am eager to further my studies to enhance my skills and knowledge, ensuring that I provide best possible guidance and support to those I teach.
