“Highly recommended Ryan is a fantastic teacher really patient and a great guy. Our kids have improved massively since starting with Swim Now best choice we ever made”
“Holly is an amazing instructor very friendly, clear and patient with her customers. She provides the perfect advice to make you feel confident in your abilities. A true asset to the team.”
“I signed up for swimming lessons at Swim now on 10/08/22 paid a deposit of 40 quids for pre session. At that time I was informed there wasn’t any availability at my location and was reassured as soon as something comes up in the next few weeks I will be considered. It over 10months now I’ve had no classes and no refunds.”
“I have had a few lessons now with Pete at the Mercure hotel in Sheffield. I am a complete beginner who had no confidence in water. Pete has been very patient and has helped me build some confidence. Pete is a fantastic teacher, he explains things well in a way I understand and ensures that I am using the correct technique. I really feel like I am progressing well.”
“Jo is excellent teacher! She always listens and helps where I am struggling during my swimming lessons. She also makes swimming as enjoyable as possible. I thoroughly enjoy my lessons with her.”
“Pete was excellent, I achieved everything I wanted. He is patient explains in simple basic terms and he makes sure you understand. He also comes into the water to giving you confidence. I throughly enjoyed every lesson, and hope to enrol again later in the year.”
“My experience with SwimNow has been great. My tutor Mariam was excellent, she understood what I was trying to achieve and advised me on what areas I should focus on to reach my target.
If there was something I couldn't understand or get the grasp of, Mariam would show me other simple tips or alternatives to see what would work best for me.
In summary, I would highly recommend Mariam to anyone who is new to swimming, or needs/wants to improve their existing swimming techniques.
Cheers!”
“I can’t praise Clare at Bristol enough, she’s been fantastic with my almost 8 year old. She has been terrified of getting water splashed in her face since 3 years old (hates having a shower). By the end of the tester session she had put her face in the water to blow bubbles, swam with arm bands on (she’d only use a ring) and floated on her back (no chance with me!).
We have just had her 4th lesson and unbelievably, she’s already swam a few meters without any swimming aid - amazing. Clare is kind, friendly and chatty which has helped my daughters confidence no end. I can’t recommend her (along with others I’ve communicated with) enough.”
“Clare has been a fantastic swimming instructor for our two girls. Both are now able to swim - one of them was afraid of putting her head underwater but will now happily jump in and swim to the bottom of the pool. She has been incredibly patient and encouraging and I really recommend her.”
“My daughter has additional needs and the instructor has been great with her. We also miss lessons regularly because or medical appointments or poor health and SwimNow as a company are very understanding of this. My daughter and son have joint lessons and they have both grown in confidence in the water.”
“I've been very pleased with the arrangements for adults. Having 1-to-1 lessons really makes all the difference. On our very first lesson, Clare, my instructor, pointed out errors I was making, causing tiredness and other hints to improve my breathing. I feel positive that we'll achieve my swimming goals in no time!”
“I was a bit sceptical about how much I'd be able to achieve in 3 months but decided to give it a go. Prior to, I had spent the same period of time at my local gym adult swimming classes but still couldn't swim independently without a float. Monika (Nottingham) took me through the basics of different styles before I settled for the front crawl which seemed more comfortable. In 2 months, I was confident enough to go it alone and by the end of my 3 month contract, I was back to the gym not as an adult learner but a full fledged swimmer even though I am still developing my skills. I would recommend the 1 to 1 lessons as it's a cost effective way to get going faster as an adult beginner.”
“I am very pleased with the progress my three grandchildren have made having lessons with Clare Jones at the Filton, Bristol pool. She has made learning to swim fun and every week the children look forward to their lessons! They have grown in confidence in the pool as well as ability. The youngest grandchild in particular, who was afraid to put her face in the water initially, now confidently dives underwater and can almost do a handstand, to her delight! I would thoroughly recommend Clare as a swimming instructor.”
“Meg has been teaching my 2 kids 4&6 for the last few months. They have gained so much confidence and absolutely love her.
Meg makes every lesson fun and their swimming has improved so much without them even realising how much they are being challenged. Couldn’t recommend Meg highly enough, she’s very patient, friendly and fun. Thanks Meg ❤️”
“My son’s swimming has come on leaps and bounds since joining Swim Now. The difference between group lessons and his lessons with Clare is incredible. Clare is a great teacher and he’s always excited to go.”
“Swimnow has helped and continue to help help my daughter to learn swimming from no knowledge at all and also being scared of entering water. My daughter is now confident and excelling at various stages of her swimming journey. Clare has been very helpful in helping my daughter build her confidence in the water. Now my daughter is always looking forward for her next lesson. Even though we have moved a bit away from the location, my daughter does not want to move to a different swimming teacher. I am really proud of how quickly she is progressing in her swimming journey. Thank you Clare and Swimnow for the excellent job. I will definitely recommend Swimnow for anyone looking for their child to learn swimming. Thank you Clare and Swimnow.”
“I'd been with Swim Now for months before Jo eventually became my teacher.
In the first class we had, she showed me how to do the breast stroke, and by the end of that 30-minute session, I was able to do a full length in that style. Prior to that, I'd been unsuccessful with every stroke for months and months, but in one session Jo had changed all of that.
Jo has the experience and eye to spot the smallest thing that may be holding back your progression. I had roughly six sessions with her in total, and by my last class, I'd learned how to do a full length of the front crawl. I'm certain my swimming journey would've dragged out for even longer without her attention to detail.
Jo is an excellent teacher, and I want to thank her, my previous instructors and Swim Now for all of their support in helping me conquer what felt like nothing less of a challenge for the longest time.”
“Had a series of six lesson with Jo - she was really great with my daughter, working with her to build her confidence and help her progress. She made the lessons fun and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Jo for children who find learning in larger groups challenging.”
“I have registered online and also called 3 times within the last 3 weeks, just tried to book a one to one lesson. Every time the person took my call and said would get someone to call back, but no one call at all, such a poor customer service!!”
