Hot off the press… Adult mermaid swimming is the new fitness craze which not only gives a fantastic workout but it is also great fun to do.

This excellent idea is the brainchild of Mermaid Wave Swim School who hold mermaid classes all around the country run by experienced mermaid swim instructors. 

Mermaid Wave saw a gap in the market which linked exercise that stimulates you but primarily and most importantly is fun, a must if you want to keep to your goals of being a healthier and fitter person!

Studies show that most people know that exercising is very important but it can also be monotonous and boring and usually falls in the “will do later” list due to lack of time or unwillingness.  It is however a very important fact that to enjoy the vitality of good health you must exercise. 

With this in mind choosing an exercise class that is not only different but fun and very good for your body surely is the answer to all your workout problems.

It has been proven that if the mermaid classes are attended on a regular basis and healthy eating is implemented your body will start to become healthier and stronger and not only that your posture will also change due to the body positioning in the pool and core work. Your overall cardio will also improve over the weeks and you will notice a change in your posterior muscles….always a bonus!

The key to Mermaid swimming is being graceful in the water and performing slow movements making the swimming look effortless.

The tails restrict the swimmers leg movements giving the effect of no legs and as the fin is covered and the persons feet are hidden it gives the tail effect which in turn makes the swimmer use a flutter kick known as a Butterfly leg kick.

The motion of the butterfly kick is a very different process once you are a Mermaid. The costume gives you full support to complete the swimming style and the Magic Fin enables a greater speed, both together are the essence of mermaiding. 

Swimming with a Magic Fin helps with your overall body position and improves your technique in the water by creating extra buoyancy as you swim. Fin swimming is a new way of learning swimming techniques and co-ordination whilst at the same time improving your overall fitness.

Celebrities have already dipped their toes into this fun craze including Geri Halliwell;Planet Mermaids very own celebrity ambassador, Myleen Klass and Britney Spears to name just a few.

Mermaid Wave provides all the kit so no added expense is needed, all you need to do is turn up, have fun and transform into a mermaid!

If like me you have a child obsessed with all things Disney and dreams of becoming the next Ariel then what I am about to tell you will bring a big smile not only to yours but also your child’s face.

I was attending our local swimming pool where both my daughters take lessons when I saw on the noticeboard Planet Mermaid advertising a 6 week swim course dedicated to becoming a mermaid!

I know Planet Mermaid well as I have purchased my daughters outfit from them and their products are nothing but excellent.  I still remember my daughters face when she opened her present and then proceeding to run to the bath to test it out.

We went to Spain on holiday last year and my daughter was the talk of the pool, I am sure she wore her tail for most of the holiday; we couldn’t get her out of the water!

The courses are run by dedicated experienced professionals and have locations throughout the UK promising to give your child the feeling of becoming a real life mermaid.

I have signed my eldest daughter to their next available course in Bedford in April….will let you know how she gets on…..

They also host mermaid birthday parties…best get that booked up too!!

Happy mermaiding !

Mermaid Wave and Planet Mermaid are very excited to announce that its first Instructor training day has taken place.

Our trainees were put through a day’s intense training programme comprising of different elements including pool and class based work.

The aim of the day was to give more knowledge to our level 2 teachers on the butterfly kick and how it is used in conjunction with the mono fins and tails.

The pool training covered safety positions and different activities which the instructors can go on to use independently during their own lessons, swimming parties and other events.

We now have 9 fully fledged instructors available to host mermaid lessons, parties, events and fitness classes around the country so sign up today to receive more information about exciting events coming to your area.
