Rebooking kicks off on Monday 26th September and runs until Sunday 2nd October. Pop along to your nearest venue during this time and book your child a coaching space with us. With 30 different activities available there is something for everyone, so what are you waiting for?
Edinburgh Leisure has the capital's largest coaching programme for children and adults alike. We offer coaching in swimming, diving, golf and football, as well as gymnastics, trampolining, tennis and a whole lot more. Download our sports coaching brochure below for full details of what's on where.
We've moved a lot of our programmes so you can stay active whilst the Royal Commonwealth Pool is closed for refurbishment and now have even more swimming lessons available at Portobello Swim Centre, Leith Academy and Braidburn School as well as relocating our diving lesson programme to Newbattle Swimming Pool.
We've some of the best sports coaching expertise around and all our coaches are fully qualified within their respective field. While the ethos will always be fun, we pride ourselves on our high standards; consistently delivering high quality programmes for all, regardless of level, age or ability – a winning combination! Taking part in regular sporting activity strengthens bones, aids co-ordination, balance and flexibility, improves stamina and concentration and reduces body fat. Activity fights depression and anxiety, improves confidence and provides a real sense of achievement.
Many of our coaching programmes are open to those with additional support needs. Sports such as diving, golf, gymnastics, swimming, tennis and trampolining provide opportunities for people with disabilities to attend mainstream coaching classes whilst sailing and kayaking require certain levels of mobility and can accommodate individuals accordingly.

Why wait?
Fed up hanging around while your child's in a coaching programme, having lots of fun? Well not anymore. We don't need to tell you how important it is to stay active, healthy and happy. So, to ensure you get a little piece of 'you time' whilst your off spring are in a coaching programme - we offer you the chance to take a dip in the pool, or visit the gym for a reduced cost.
