Both my daughter and son truly enjoy their time during the swimming lessons. Coach Autumn makes a big difference with her dedication and kindness helping them to grow more confidence and excitement about swimming.

I took my first adult swim class today with Coach Bella. I was very nervous and embarrassed that I have gone through so much of life not being able to swim. From the start, everyone was super friendly. Bella was so kind and really broke things down for me to understand what I was doing and why it works. I couldn't believe by the end of the 30 minute session, I could float!!! That might not seem like much to some, but I always assumed I was never going to be able to float. She got me comfortable floating and steering. I never felt pressure to preform, she was so kind every step of the way. And she gave me a little glimpse of what we will work on next week. I am 100% confident in her as a teacher and know that if I keep going I will become a strong swimmer!! 🥰 Will update this in a couple of weeks!!! Thank you!!!

Great coaches, clear understanding of expectations. Helped my child feel more comfortable and confident in the water. Definitely recommend this for any child who needs to learn how to float and swim.

I couldn't be happier with our experience at British Swim School at East Bay location! My 3 years old daughter absolutely loves her swim lessons here, and a big part of that is thanks to her amazing instructor, Miss Joy. Miss Joy is truly fantastic with young children. She has the perfect blend of patience, warmth, and expertise, which makes every lesson enjoyable and effective. Her constant smiles and positive energy create a welcoming environment where my daughter feels safe and confident in the water. We've seen incredible progress in such a short time, and it's clear that Miss Joy genuinely cares about her students' success. If you're looking for a swim school that’s perfect for toddlers, with an instructor who will make the experience fun and rewarding, British Swim School and Miss Joy are the way to go!

British Swim School has been fantastic! Coach Joy is our go-to coach. We absolutely love her! I was very anxious when starting swim class with my six month old, as I was worried about there being a lot of crying and screaming. Joy worked with us, letting the baby stay with me more if he was having a rough day and singing silly songs to keep him calm. Joy has also encouraged me to leave my comfort zone in a way that was supportive, not pushy. We absolutely love her 💛
