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.

My kids’ first time to try swimming lesson

My kids’ first time to try swimming lesson. They’re both scared of being on the water/pool but their instructor made them comfortable. I’m worried they might not even try getting on the pool but to my surprise they enjoyed it and wants to do it again! Thanks to the lovely and friendly instructor

SwimExpert lessons with Luke

My daughters have been taking swimming lessons with Luke at SwimExpert, and I have to say, they have had a great experience. Luke is knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging, which helped them feel comfortable in the water and make progress with their swimming skills. They appreciate the two-on-one attention and feedback from the Luke. The facilities are top-notch, with clean and a well-maintained pool and changing rooms. Overall, my daughters feel much more confident in their ability to swim after taking these lessons, and I would highly recommend Luke at SwimExpert to anyone looking to improve their swimming skills. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced swimmer, I think you'll find the instruction and facilities here to be top-notch.

Excellent tuition from Ciaran in Wokingham

Excellent tuition from Ciaran in Wokingham. My 14 year old daughter is an experienced swimmer but had 10 lessons to improve her technique as she's keen to start triathlons. Great improvement in her front crawl and breast stroke and learnt to do flip turns also.

My 4 year-old daughter loves her swimming lessons

My 4 year-old daughter really loves her lessons and looks forward to every lessons with them. She quickly built confidence in water and progresses each time. She knows the name of every teacher as she has fun learning with them. Sadly, one of her teacher, Eloise is moving place and my girl said she's gonna miss her because she's very kind.

Non Swimmer & Improver

My 6 year old granddaughter had lessons with Alexander who got her swimming with no floats within 3 lessons. As an adult I had a course of 5 lessons with Holly as wanted to crack crawl, this stroke has always defeated me. Both instructors were very competent and professional. I would recommend them to both non-swimmers and someone wanting to improve.

I CAN do it

After only 4 lessons 2 with Evie and 2 with Roan, I swam the equivalent of a width on my back with no float or help today. Both are really patient teachers and I hope to go from strength to strength. Not bad for a 63 year old who couldn't even float.

Great teacher

My daughter has grown in confidence from sitting on the edge of the pool to swimming independently with a float in just over 2 months thanks to Shay. Great teacher in a nice calm environment.

Excellent instructors

I booked a series of 6 lessons to help me regain swimming ability after a prolonged absence from the water. Every lesson was a positive and helpful experience. In particular, Lisa was an excellent teacher. The pool water at the Apollo Hotel Basingstoke was clean and not too cold, even though the changing room lockers etc need an overhaul. I'd recommend SwimExpert to anyone, young or old.

Transformative

Matthew is helping my son regain confidence as a swimmer after not enjoying swimming at school. Individual lessons are well worth the investment. He is a calm and encouraging teacher. I like the way he shows different techniques until he finds the right one for the child.

Matthew has been an amazing swim instructor

Matthew has been an amazing swim instructor for our autistic 5-year-old son. Our son is non-verbal, and Matthew has shown incredible patience, understanding, and skill in helping him learn to swim. He creates a calm, supportive environment and has built a wonderful connection with him. We are so proud of the progress our son has made and it’s largely thanks to Matthew’s dedication and encouragement. Seeing him grow in confidence and do so brilliantly in the water has been fantastic. We can’t recommend Matthew highly enough. Thank you !

Excellent Triathlon Swim Coaching with Hollie

I’ve been having swimming lessons with Hollie while training for a triathlon, as I wanted to improve my freestyle technique and feel more confident in the water. Hollie has been brilliant, she has a great eye for detail and was able to quickly pick up on areas I needed to work on, giving clear, practical feedback that made a real difference. Her coaching style is encouraging and very focused on technique, which has helped me understand what to improve and how to improve it. She has also given me specific training drills to work on outside of lessons, helping me build my fitness, improve my technique and make my training more structured. I’ve come away from the lessons feeling much more confident in my swimming and better prepared for my triathlon training. Highly recommend Hollie to anyone looking to improve their swimming, whether for fitness, technique or event training.

Highly recommend Christian T my girls love him he’s fun and kind but gets them to somehow do the hard work in a enjoyable way. They LOVE their swim sessions…best part is their gaining the skills and reaching milestones at a steady pace.

Great 1:2:1 swimming Teacher

We could not be happier with Chester as a swimming teacher for our 5 yr old daughter. She had really helped grow her confidence in the water.

SwimExpert: Chester (Kam Sau Y) instructor

Chester (Kam Sau Y) has been a brilliant instructor. My son, Jack, and we as parents were extremely impressed during the trial session so much so that Jack immediately asked if Chester could be his swimming instructor. She was originally fully booked, and the only available slot was 5:30–6:00 pm on Sundays, which didn’t work for us. Despite this, she was incredibly kind and adjusted her schedule to start earlier so she could accommodate us. That alone shows her dedication and commitment. Jack has now completed his fifth lesson. He loves and keeps looking forward to his every session and we can already see a noticeable improvement in both his skills and his confidence in the water. We especially appreciate that Chester incorporates life‑saving techniques, such as what to do in an accidental fall into the water something particularly important given the recent news during the hot weather. It truly shows how much she cares about her students’ safety and overall development. What we value most about Chester is her focus on building strong foundations. Whenever Jack performs a technique incorrectly, she stops him immediately to correct it, ensuring he learns the right way from the start. This level of attention and professionalism makes a huge difference, as it prevents bad habits that would be harder to fix later on. So thank you Chester!

Excellent Swimming Instructor – Highly Recommend Marius

I started swimming lessons as a complete beginner, and Marius has been an excellent instructor. He is patient, professional and explains techniques clearly, making them easy to understand and put into practice. Each lesson is well structured and I can see a noticeable improvement in my swimming ability since I started. Marius is encouraging, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in helping his students progress. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn swimming or improve their technique.

Mel B Swim Expert Basingstoke - got my son swimming in 6 sessions

Mel B has been fantastic in getting my 10 year old son to swim. I honestly could not believe my eyes, seeing the rapid improvement in my boy’s ability. We’d tried group lessons at the town pool when he was younger. I spent £400 there in total and he’d learnt nothing. So I thought I’d give 1-2-1 lessons a go. The change in my son’s attitude was instant. Before getting into the pool with Mel B, he was a boy who wouldn’t put his head back in the water. Within 15 minutes he was floating on his back! Yesterday, after his sixth session he swam his first length! Mel B teaches in a methodical way, making it fun too, so my boy doesn’t realise he’s being gently encouraged to do more and progress. Her attention and focus on their learning is 100 per cent. Thanks so much Mel! (Apollo Hotel, Basingstoke)
