My daughter has been to two lessons so far and I can already see a huge improvement in her swimming ability. Her confidence has increased 100%. All the members of staff as so welcoming, friendly and informative. The Teachers are awesome, so engaging, encouraging and positive. My daughter loves the class as do I.

Was here this morning for the first time with my 3 year old. What a place. A proper swimming lesson. Not your council run 20 kids to a class. There is a maximum of six kids per class which means my sons actually getting proper teaching. Staff and facilities are great. The viewing area is behind big glass windows which is nice and cool so no sitting poolside and roasting. Coffee machine does a decent coffee too. Got my son signed up for classes weekly now. Well done guys keep up the great work
Brian

Brillant seating area looking on the pool and staff actually go into pool with the kids which is so much better as they get the proper training 😁 times are also great!! Glad I made the choice to move him here!! Keep up the good work guys

Great place for the kids to get proper lessons to learn how to swim. Class sizes kept to a small amount so that kids can get proper one to one lessons. Place is immaculate inside and nice viewing area to relax with a coffee and watch the lessons.
