We love British Swim! We have a 4 year old who is VERY apprehensive to try new things and when we first went to swim she cried and cried. I try my best to be an empathetic and supportive parent while also pushing my kid to try new things and kind of “tough love” to help build up her resiliency but there are just experiences that cannot be rushed, and swimming is one of them. Our teachers were not just knowledgeable and skilled in teaching littles, they were also caring and compassionate, and never ever pushy. They offered different introductory strategies (squirt toys, feet in water, parents sitting next to our kiddo on “deck”) and helped her feel more comfortable and celebrated each time she took a chance. Her swim instructors offered a high level of care and gave her complete bodily autonomy and it was so impressive the way they were able to get my kiddo to crack a smile and try new things. Conversely, we have a family friend who is much more energetic and extroverted and enjoys every second of every new experience. When she starts to get a wild hair, the teachers set hard and fast boundaries, while also maintaining a kind and caring environment. We have loved all of our classes and the individual attention our kids (and friends’ kids) have received from British Swim School!!!

We love British Swim School! Just over a year ago our 9-year-old LOVED the water but was not deep water safe. British Swim School focuses on being water safe as their the top priority. In three months our kiddo was water safe, and less than a year after that they have now graduated to the final level offered (Shark 2) and are working on refining back, front, breast and butterfly. They love the classes and the instructors and feel a deep sense of accomplishment and pride in how far they've come. Thanks for all you do!

Great program. Would like to acknowledge Kelsey, who has been exceptional and gone above and beyond to help my daughters learn to swim. I would continue these lessons for her care and instruction alone, she is wonderful.

Great organization, well staffed, the facilities are prestine and pleasant. Great communication from the office staff. The trainers enjoy their day so it's turned out to be a natural organic learning experience for both my kids.
