Always struggled with my front crawl, just couldn’t get to grips with it. Found SwimNow UK online. They were very helpful & I booked 3 lessons. After 3 one hour lessons I now have a front crawl I’m happy with & can improve as I go along. Can’t recommend highly enough.

My little girl and i are learning how to swim and we couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Megan is thorough in the way she teaches, very gentle with our little one while keeping her motivated. She looks forward to her lessons and has already grasped the techniques as have i. Thank u Megan. You are a credit to Swim Now

I have had a great experience so far. I was so afraid of the water and im on my 3rd lesson and feel so confident and I’m making so much progress all because of my Swim one instructor. I would recommend this to everyone.

Angie is an excellent swimming teacher. I have never been comfortable in the water and consequently I've never learnt to swim. Angie has helped me get over that and I'm making real progress.

I so want to be able to swim, and to this end, I couldn't have asked for a better instructor than Dominique. She is patient and is working with me to achieve my goals. Thumbs up to Dominique and SwimNow.

After recently taking up swimming lessons I found it invaluable. Lessons were tailored to my needs and my instructor Oliver was very patient , understanding and excellent with clients with water phobia . Fantastic swimming experience.

I was an unconfident swimmer who could just about drag himself from one side of the pool to the other. After about 12 half an hour sessions with Oliver I went from that, to being able to pull off back to back lengths with decent technique. This was all really down to Oliver who is a brilliant coach in general. He's extremely encouraging and really knows his stuff, knowing exactly how hard to push you each time. If you've got any doubts about going with swimming lessons with Swim Now just go for it, and if you can, ask for Oliver. (Although I'm sure the other coaches are great too!)

Recently (February - April 2019) I have had a 6-lesson package with a fantastic coach, Pete. His lessons were well-structured and carefully thought out. More importantly they were tailored to me and my aims that we established together in our first lesson. Although I am not a beginner, I suffer greatly from anxiety and just going to a swimming pool these days is a massive challenge for me. However, Pete put me at ease very quickly. My main goals were to improve my front crawl, and to learn how to do a tumble turn. I now know how to do these much better than I did at the start and I'm in a position to progress further on my own. Through my SwimNow lessons with Pete I have found him to be a extremely high quality teacher with an obviously wide ranging experience teaching clients with diverse goals and needs. He has some great ways of explaining how to do things! He also breaks things down for you into easily understandable ideas. In our lessons I have found him to be a very versatile coach, who can quickly adapt a lesson plan when necessary. He is also extra-patient and positive when things take time for me to learn. The facilities that SwimNow use in Sheffield are good. I feel the price I paid for my lessons was fair. When I have practised my strokes a bit more on my own I hope to go back and learn more from Pete! I would wholeheartedly recommend SwimNow as a way of getting expert, professional yet human one-to-one swimming guidance for any level - from complete novice to club-level. Pete has the Power to help you!

Oliver is a brilliant instructor and gave me more confidence in the water in a short space of time than I would have ever thought possible. I am extremely grateful for his patience and support. The only reason I haven't awarded a 5 is that the hourly cost (over 3 times the cost of a driving lesson) is restrictive.

I had an amazing experience with Swim Now. Using the excellent one on one coaching has given me a new found confidence in my own ability to swim. As an instructor, Toby was both professional and engaging; he was able to create lessons that were fun and focused. His manner when teaching was always on a personal level, and he was able to teach to every one of my specific needs, to ensure that I got the most from the course. Toby always went the extra mile, after every session, by sending me tips I had learned in the lesson that I could use in my own personal swimming time. Overall, using Swim Now was an excellent experience, with superb coaching and very friendly service. I would definitely recommend this, not only to those who are beginners to swimming, but also to anyone who (like me) is experienced at swimming but wants to improve their abilities.

I had lesson No 4 today and I'm feeling much more confident in the water. Liam (Newcastle) is a very patient and understanding instructor and gives me lots of encouragement. Clear progress has been made since I started. He worked out exactly where my problems lay and knows how to get the best out of you. I would highly recommend Swim Now. Money well spent. Thanks Liam

I came across SwimNow after being let down by another swimming lesson provider. I was anxious following my first experience. I needn’t have been. Information and contact was quick and easy. Venue is a little far from home with nothing closer to Burmingham than East Midlands. However venue is good and the swimming instructor calm, clear and patient. I cannot fault her and would highly recommend both the company and instructor.

My 4 yr old grandson has now had 4 lessons with Dominic. I’m so impressed with how Dominic is with him, he’s really calm and reassuring but has a positivity about him. Would definitely recommend him for young children.
