My 3 year old son loves the water and swimming in his grandparents pool, so I knew it was time for him to learn some water survival skills. The team at British Swim School in Nashua has been fantastic. Each week my son is excited to attend his lesson. He’s had a variety of different coaches and they are all so good at making him feel comfortable and successful. We are about 6 lessons in and I already see such a difference in my son’s confidence when he is in the water. The lessons are small group, so he gets plenty of personalized attention which accelerates the learning process! I’m excited to watch his progression through the program!

Love British swim school. My grandson has sensory issues and being in big classes causes him to have anxiety and I found this swim school where I didn’t necessarily have to get into the pool too and he received one on one coaching. Remy loved it and he was eager to get into the pool and learn. Also LOVE the fact that they teach survival techniques and on occasion have the kids be fully dressed and jump in the pool. After all as a nurse most “drowning” accident are not always kids/people in their swimsuits. It is real life scenarios that teaches kids/adults what to do for the best survival scenario. The teacher/student ratio is fantastic! They are accommodating, professional and really give their all to give families/students the best experiences!! I give this school two thumbs up, five stars, and more!! Thank you for what you do

I can't say enough good things about my experience with British Swim School as an adult returning to the water to rebuild my strength after back surgery. From day one, the entire team has been incredibly welcoming, supportive, and knowledgeable. They’ve created an environment where I feel comfortable pushing myself outside my comfort zone while receiving valuable technical feedback that is truly helping me become a stronger and more confident swimmer. Their patience, encouragement, and expertise have made all the difference in my progress. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, I highly recommend British Swim School for anyone wanting to improve their confidence and ability in the water. Thank you to the amazing instructors for making this such a positive and rewarding experience!

We have done swim lessons at several other facilities and nothing compares to the swim safety and skills they are learning with BSS. The whole staff is great with the kids and helping them learn essential skills for not only survival, but how to actually swim. Their lessons are paired with games to make it a fun environment for the kids and easy to understand lessons to help them sharpen their skills. My son really struggles with water and the entire staff has done a great job helping him overcome his fears. These lessons are truly meant for families offering flexibility if you need a make-up class if you can't attend your normal scheduled class. Great people and a great program!

Wonderful experience here with my three children. One child is very anxious about swimming and the staff have been super patient with her. She is slowly gaining confidence and beginning to love swimming. The pool is always clean, warm, and safe. I have recommended this swim school to several friends and family already. I can’t wait to see my kids grow as swimmers with Mike and crew.
