The team here is so sweet, the pool is small, and it all feels so ideal. We love our weekly 30 minutes here and I know it’s will pay off in water safety. Thank you!

Could not be happier with the instructors and program. We had our Granddaughters up for a visit and the staff went all out to accommodate our limited schedule. The kids had a great time and were made to feel welcome right from the start. The staff are wonderful with the kids! Very focused on teaching safe swim. I would encourage parents to check this school out. They even teach babies!! Very, very impressed. Will be visiting British Swim School again.

I enrolled my grandchildren in the British Swim School. I am very happy with their program. The teachers are great and develop trust with the kids. They have definitely learned safety first. Would highly recommend it. The kids are progressing and having a good time in the water.

Amazing team of instructors! I would highly recommend British swim school for swim lessons. Easy to work with competent teachers and good overall management! Our daughter was very anxious about getting into the pool at first.. but was swimming and enjoying her time in water after just about 3/4 lessons! 😊

We have absolutely loved our time with British Swim School. We have been to two other swim schools and this is by far the best. They have taken our kids who were terrified of the water to being able to jump in and begin floating on their back. I really would recommend it for anyone who wants their kids to have a comfortable and enjoyable experience being introduced to swimming. Their focus on water safety on is evident in all their teaching. We can’t recommend it highly enough.
