Hout Bay Swimming Academy, formerly known as Wendy’s Swim School, was founded in 2000 by Wendy Paarman.
What began as a small home-based learn-to-swim school, has now expanded to include a wide range of water-based activities.
All swimming activities take place in a 3-lane, 15m heated indoor pool found in the heart of Hout Bay’s beachside suburb or at a privately owned 25 m, outdoor pool situated on Valley Road.
As the years have passed, many of Hout Bay’s children have seen themselves move through Wendy’s baby classes, on to individual learn-to-swim lessons and most recently, the more challenging squad training.
Wendy and her team of coaches are passionate and ensure that all lessons, classes and squads are taught with a patient, loving and encouraging approach.
