Location:

Lessons take place at Jack Purcell Community Centre Pool in downtown Ottawa.

The Jack Purcell Pool is an 18 metre warm water facility, located beside the community centre. Once inside the building, please proceed directly to the changing rooms.


Please note that to reduce administrative costs,
we have no physical administrative office.

Outside of our lesson time-slots, no Making Waves staff are present at the Jack Purcell pool.

However, we're always available by telephone or e-mail!

Registration is only possible online.
