“I had my first swimming lesson with Polly on Friday, I was really nervous as I have fear of water. Before entering the pool I had anxiety attack. Polly put me at ease very quickly and helped me get into the water where she worked with me at my pace. Brilliant swimming teacher very calm, reassuring, and made me feel comfortable in the water would highly recommend”
“Very professional instructor, easy to interact with. Clear instructions given throughout & made to feel very welcome & safe. Would definately recommend to anyone serious about learning to swim using 1 to 1 instruction.”
“My 11 year old son could swim, but lacked technique and confidence. Andy was brilliant with him, making the lessons varied and fun. He has progressed so much over the summer and is less anxious for swimming at secondary school. Highly recommended!”
“I had a bundle of twelve lessons with Pete and have made lots of progress by the end.
As I have always had doubts about my physical ability, I felt unsure about group classes and I tried to teach myself to swim for a few times to no avail.
After lessons with Pete I am now able to travel from one end of the 13m pool to the other both on my back and on my front with the help of fins, and I had never thought I could be able to do that.
My only complaint is that I would have preferred having two 30 minute sessions a week, but the instructor’s schedule is too tight and can’t fit in more lessons.”
“Our first lesson with David was absolutely fantastic. He took the time to get to know our son and assessed his abilities in a relaxed and fun way. We were amazed that even in this session he made progress. David was gentle and reassuring with Ollie and made him feel completely safe. So far we have been very impressed and are excited to see him grow further in confidence and skill as his lessons continue.”
“Professional service iro booking lessons. My instructor, Joanne, contacted me and let me know exactly what to expect and also to ask what my experience was.
Lessons were always on time and filled with teaching and practise. I finished my set of lessons with much improved confidence and the ability to relax and enjoy the water. Th as no you so much.”
“Millie has been absolutely amazing, my 9 year old daughter hadn’t had swimming lessons since before Covid and had really lost her confidence. Millie instantly put her at ease, and I can really see the progress after a few weeks. My daughter never enjoyed her swimming lessons before coming to Swim Now, but now she can’t wait to have one. We feel so lucky to have found Millie, as she has a real gift for teaching and such a lovely manner.”
“At my first session I was made very welcome by my instructor, Helen right from the start. She made me feel safe in the water immediately despite my mobility limitations. She was very attentive to my specific needs & gave very clear instructions & encouragement throughout. I felt that I was making progress very quickly. An excellent session.”
“Sheffield - Gareth dealt with everything quite quickly. I had Pete and Flo who were both very patient with me (adult beginner). Nice hotel and pool. I would recommend.”
“My daughter started her swimming lessons with swimming coach Robyn at Swim Now, Macclesfield, Everlast Gym which has a lovely pool as well as good parking.
My daughter suffered a traumatic incident when swimming with school, she was asked to jump into the deep end of the pool when she cannot swim (complete non swimmer), the teacher who was taking the children's class on that day did not know their capabilities. This left my daughter very afraid of water and I did not think she would ever get in a pool again.
Since swimming with Robyn at Swim Now she has made significant progress in such a short amount of time. Robyn is very friendly and she has gained my daughters complete trust.
I would recommend Robyn at swim now to teach anyone of any age/capability to learn how to swim. Needless to say as a mother I am so thankful for Robyn & Swim now.”
“We spent a long time looking for a swimming teacher for our very nervous 5 year old.
From day 1 Andy made him feel safe in the water. His way of teaching is fun.
We signed up for 12 lessons but soon booked another set and another because the progress was amazing. Our son will miss his lessons when we finally stop!
Lessons may not be cheap but the intense one to one with Andy make it worth it!!”
“I had only done two lessons with Andy. A person like me who had never done swimming got so much confidence to be in water. Andy really made me feel comfortable and gained my confidence in water in the two lessons. If my health permits me I will always go to Andy to learn swimming.
Really a good trainer.”
“I had a fantastic experience learning with Pete! I’m a beginner swimmer - I could swim to stay afloat but I didn’t know any proper techniques. Pete helped me break down the moves for breaststroke and front crawl, giving me easy, buildable drills to practise the proper arm and leg movements. He also helped me practise good breathing, so I could be more efficient. His explanations were clear and he was very patient with me as I figured things out! I feel like I made so much progress in a short time, and now feel confident swimming 4-500m at a time - and it’s actually fun! I really recommend Pete & the Swim Now team :)”
“Can highly recommend David at Swim now. My son was a very nervous swimmer and was struggling to make progress in regular swimming classes. After 12 weeks of 1-1 sessions with David my son has gained so much confidence and is swimming really well. Thank you so much David and Swim now!”
“Our son was taught by Andy and really enjoyed his lessons. Andy made the lessons fun and our son looked forward to them each week. He has now become confident in the water making it easier to teach the actual skill.”
“Nate recently completed his 3 months with Millie. We started with an apprehensive little Autistic boy who screamed the place down at a main stream swimming lesson so we were worried even getting him into water again could be hard, and ended up with a different child who not only wants to go into the water but found ‘swimming with Millie’ to be the highlight of his week. Teaching a non verbal autistic child is an art and needs the patience of a saint at times, Millie not only got him enjoying his time in the water but occasionally grabbed his full attention and had him swimming a few strokes. We both recognised the biggest issue in his last couple of lessons was he could stand up in the pool and did not need to swim. We are on holiday this week with a small private pool 5 foot at the deeper end and he is swimming several metres unaided and with a big smile on his face. So thank you swim now and the wonderful Millie.”
“Ive had a couple of lessons with Dan now in Liverpool he was able to put me at ease straight away and managed to swim a full length of the pool
ive gained that much in such a short time i was able to get in the pool whist away on holiday for the first time
ive got a couple of lessons left so hopefully gain that little bit more confidence
many thanks
Spencer”
