Research

Between 2010 - 2015 we worked closely with researchers from the Institute of Education, Kent University and Roehampton University.

 

The research, led by Professor Adam Ockelford, has yielded several reports analysing observations made by research assistants throughout our sessions.

​

We are now aiming to undertake new research and are delighted that one of our partner organisations, Swim Odyssey in Preston, has recently collaborated with the University of Central Lancashire on a case study looking at the potential benefits of Musical Hydrotherapy for children struggling with learning in a classroom setting.
