Let's face it, moving your body gets a lot harder

Let's face it, moving your body gets a lot harder in winter. It's easier to just swathe ourselves in blankets and cosy clothes, snuggle up on the couch and indulge in hot chocolate. Am I right?

But then your energy levels start matching those of the weather around you. You feel grey, dreary and lethargic. it becomes a vicious cycle that's really hard to shake once the warmer weather approaches.

We've got the answer!

🏊🏻‍♀️ Aqua Aerobics is on Wednesdays!

Every Wednesday we host our amazing class to give you a great low impact, fun workout! Surround yourself with like minded people in our the warm waters of our heated pool, with funky music mixing with infectious laughter!

WHY ARE SWIMMING LESSONS FOR YOUR CHILD SO ESSENTI

WHY ARE SWIMMING LESSONS FOR YOUR CHILD SO ESSENTIAL?

Safety!

Swimming is a skill that can literally save your child's life. We live in an amazing, warm climate in a country surrounded by vast coastlines (more than 30,000km's in fact!).

It is basically impossible to not come across an aquatic environment at some point. You simply can't avoid water (and why would you want to?!) - which is why it is simply imperative that we all learn how to swim.

And the sooner, the better!

Water Ponyz cater to all age groups, but one of our most important is:

Ponyz: for children aged 3-5 years.

Children in this age range are starting to become more independent and curious about their surroundings, we're giving them more freedom as parents, encouraging them to explore and develop.

But we all know how fast a child can be, how quickly things can change.

NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO GIVE YOUR CHILD THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO SURVIVE AROUND WATER.

Our classes encourage your child to learn independence without their caregiver in the water. These small classes are aimed to develop a technique and confidence for you child to learn to swim independently! The time, care and development our team prides itself on will get results in helping your child become able in the water. Learning to survive - among other things - is a very important part to what we focus on while enjoying the toys, games and fun!

Have you ever thought about how you would handle a

Have you ever thought about how you would handle an emergency situation? If you were the first on scene at an accident? If one of your children started choking? If there was a snakebite? Or burn? Or bad cut?

Would you know what to do to give the victim the best chance or survival? Or would you stand by helplessly and watch as they deteriorated - knowing there is nothing you can do to save them?

If you fall into that second category - then you need to do a First Aid Course. Nobody should feel helpless - and nobody should be surrounded by helpless people. Do it for yourself, and do it for your loved ones. Be the Hero.

Water Ponyz hold regular First Aid and CPR courses on premises, because we want to help our community stay safe in more ways than just around water.

Our next course is being held on Monday, 6th of September 2021.
It runs from 8.30am – 4pm and costs just $130.

There is no minimum age requirement for this particular course, however the participant must be able to interact in an adult learning environment. (We do run a separate course for kids).

And on successful completion of the course, learners will be provided with a Statement of Attainment that includes the following:

✅ HLTAID001 -Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
✅ HLTAID002 -Provide basic emergency life support
✅ HLTAID003 -Provide first aid

Please, please ensure you enrol in this course - Because you simply never know when you may need the skills you learn to save someone's life – and isn’t that an amazing superpower to hold? The knowledge to save a life?

Would your baby know what to do if they fell into the water?

Not just a pool, or lake or large body of water - what if they fell face first into the bath? Or a puddle? Would they know what to do to buy those precious seconds of time it takes for you to get to them?

If you answered anything other than a 100% yes - then you need to enrol your child into swimming lessons now.

Don't leave it too late. Don't wait. Don't think you will always have more time.

Because one more day could be one more day too many.

Not sure how your baby will like swimming lessons? Is that one of the reasons why you're waiting?

Well guess what! Water Ponyz are offering:

FREE BABY TRIAL CLASSES EVERY FRIDAY MORNING AT 9.10am!

Available for bubs over 6 weeks old, this is a great way to test how they will go in the water before committing to full lessons!

☀️ (And our pool is always set to the perfect temperature for those little bodies to enjoy) 💧

SWIM CLUB TOMORROW! There is always more availabl

SWIM CLUB TOMORROW!

There is always more available for our kids, more sport, more fitness…

But what we have found- is that not all kids want have structured lessons, or play team sports… some (mainly teenagers) are craving for a non-techy space that can soothe the soul…

Put their face in the water and swim…. (kind of a meditative state)

So we created SWIM CLUB…

Tuesday evenings 6.30 - 7.30pm, starting back on the 27th July. Cost is $135.

A fun, casual, fitness session for kids over Level 6 (preference as the strokes are mostly learnt by then)

If your interested and know your kids will benefit, just send us a message and find out what week we are in, when we next start a new program… each week build on the last, improving strokes, breathing issues, confidence, strength… so many benefits…

Love to see them in here having a blast… (numbers book out fast)
