The techniques Dominic and Megan taught me have me so much confidence. I honestly thought I'd never enjoy swimming under water and on my back but I achieved these skills in just one course. I'm hoping to book another block when I get chance to push myself further.

Very good service and my swimming has really improved just over 6 lessons. I would give a 5 star review but I think they could improve in three areas 1. Take video's on before and after because you would be able to see how much improvement you've made. 2.Give more praise and encouragement ( I thrive and perform better when I'm given good feedback) 3. A clear plan on what areas you'll be focusing on over the 6 sessions

As a total non swimmer at the age of 60 I decided I really need to learn to swim. So after seeing Swim now advertise on Facebook I plucked up courage and rang to find out all about swimming lessons. I can't believe that Pete actually managed to get me in the pool, I have no confidence at all my fear of drowning is well out of perspective. Now after a few lessons some good some not so ( that's me expecting too much of myself) I love having my lessons Pete is so patient with me he has done great so far, I will definitely be having a splash in the sea and pool on my hols this year, then back to continue my lessons. Thankyou Pete and swim now

Well done Andrea, Learning to swim later in life can be daunting. You can be very proud of your achievements. All the best with your continued swimming development. Best wishes, Alistair Mills, Owner, Swim Now

It’s been a really good experience with hopefully a successful outcome which won’t be for the want of the professionalism and support of the coach. Her encouragement and comforting words have been invaluable.

I've tried group Swimming lessons before but could not get the satisfaction that I was learning anything. Saw the add for Swim Now and thought I'd give the 1 on 1 lesson a try, Pete my Swimming instructor has been nothing but fabtastic...I've learned so much from his instruction and have gained loads of confidence...SO! I with utmost confidence highly recommend Pete if you really want to learn how to swim...please, try SWIM NOW!

My 12 year old son has been swimming for the last four weeks Maria, the sessions have been brilliant and he has grown more confident with swimming each lesson. Maria is patient and clear when coaching, I would highly recommend her to anybody wanting to learn how to swim.

My husband and I have both learnt the basics in only 3 lessons with Robyn, she has been so supportive and patient with us both. Great teacher and will return back to swim now soon to learn more different styles of swimming, hopefully with Robyn.

Excellent coaching. I was one of their worst customers because I learnt so much from 1 lesson that I haven't needed to go back, though I certainly will do so over the coming months.

Lessons are very informative and productive. The swimming coach is very patient and explains everything in detail. I went from being afraid to put my head under the water to actually swimming half the pool length under water. Brilliant, wish I’d done it years ago😊👍
