My son's been swimming with Ashley for the last 6 weeks. He has come on so much in his technique and confidence. Ashley has been fantastic in encouraging him to overcome his nerves from being in the water and always makes the lessons engaging and fun. Thank you Ashley!

These swimming lessons have been brilliant for my daughter. Jan is a great instructor, gives clear instructions, positive encouragement and gentle feedback. My daughter loves her lessons each week and is so much more confident.

Elliot has been absolutely brilliant with my twins. They have gone from not wanting to get their faces wet to jumping in, in a matter of weeks. Would highly recommend.

Elliott has been an amazing swim instructor, teaching both of my 4 and 6 year old. They have come on so much since starting the lessons. He is very patience and calm. His lessons are engaging and fun. Both boys enjoy coming each week.

Instructors/staff are kind, patient, and do a great job at teaching kids how to swim. Every lesson I can see my daughter making significant progress. And most importantly, she’s enjoying herself and looks forward to every lesson. Highly recommend. A special shout out to my daughters instructor, Mr. Pav, who has been a amazing.

Eloise has been incredible. The progress and confidence our daughter has developed in the short time has been incredible. Eloise’s weekly notes on progress are thorough and helpful. She is by far the best instructor we’ve had and a credit to SwimExpert.

My children absolutely love their lessons with Scarlet. She has such a lovely way with them and is so encouraging. She has managed to get my water-hating 4 year-old to fully submerge her head! Would highly recommend Scarlet as a teacher.

Thank you so much SwimExpert and in particular Danny. My grandson who was terrified of water is now really confident and loves playing in water. We are going to have a short break but will return for more serious stuff in the near future. One happy grandma, one extremely happy grandson, two proud parents

1:1 lessons with Luke
I’m so impressed with my son’s progress in a course of just 5 lessons! Luke is an excellent instructor. He’s very professional, friendly and patient. He explains everything so easily and makes the lessons so much fun. My son loves the lessons and wait eagerly for the next ones. He’s now a strong swimmer with lots of confidence in the water. Thank you Luke! As a parent, would definitely recommend Luke and SwimExpert.

All the instructors my daughter had lessons with are very professional and qualified. My daughter really enjoys her lessons and progressed a lot with swimexpert 1-2-1 lessons, after trying different swimming schools for group lessons.
