Lucy has been going to Swim City lessons for a couple of years now and her progress from day one has been amazing! She had so much confidence now, compared to when she started and wouldn’t even put her head in the water. The instructors are brilliant and give her the push she needs, thank you so much xx

swim city is amazing!! My little boy had no water confidence at all wouldn’t even put his face in the water but in just a few short month he now has so much confidence and loves the water and is swimming so well. He even wants to be a swimming teacher now when he grows up ‘just like Jonny’ (his words lol). highly recommend and all teachers are amaizing. ??♂️

SwimCity are fantastic. My four year old son was terrified of going in the swimming pool on holiday so I decided to take him to SwimCity. I can honestly say this is definitely the best decision I made bringing him! The instructors are all so friendly and professional and made my son feel at ease straight away!
Melissa M
Great swimming instructors, my son has been doing swimming lessons here for a few years now and loves it ?

My daughter (7) and son (4) have had swim lessons with Swim City for quite some time and absolutely love it! My daughter would swim everyday if she could! ?♀️ The swim teachers are all really nice and very professional at the same time ?

My son has only been with Swim City for one term so far but his swimming and confidence have improved dramatically. He really looks forward to his lessons each week. The covid measures in place are excellent and we feel 100% safe. I cannot recommend Swim City enough.

Brilliant teachers and good set up

Wow just got to watch my first session in a couple of weeks and I actually can’t get over the improvement in my daughter’s swimming in such a short space of time. The progression is incredible given the short time since lockdown. I would 100% recommend Swim City both of my children are confident swimmers because of these sessions. Thank you to the full team ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My twin daughters only joined 3 weeks ago and I can already see a massive improvement in their confidence and ability….tonight they swam 4-5 meters totally unaided!
3 weeks ago they clung onto the side, wouldn’t put their face in the water and absolutely refused to jump in! Now they are leaping into the water and even putting their hands up to have first turns! Abi is absolutely amazing with them and they are so excited on swimming lesson day now! Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for all you do.
