Hi everyone,
In this episode of Wine with Wita, I had the privilege of sitting down with Natalie Flintrop-Clarke, founder of Swim 4 All. As both a dedicated swim teacher and a mother of a neurodivergent child, Natalie has built a swim school that welcomes children of all abilities, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn this life-saving skill.
In this powerful episode, we discussed:
WHAT WE DISCUSSED:
✔️ How to create swim classes that support children with disabilities
✔️ The importance of working closely with parents to build confidence and safety
✔️ Why learning to swim is a non-negotiable life skill
✔️ Heartwarming success stories of students overcoming the odds
✔️ How Natalie’s world record solo kite-surfing journey helped expand inclusive swim programs
Natalie is a true asset to the industry, proving that with the right support, every child can thrive in the water.
