Parents' Favorite Swimming Lessons in Boulder

Swimming lessons in Boulder are important for people of all ages, particularly children. According to the National Drowning Prevention Alliance, learning to swim can reduce the risk of drowning by 88% for 1–4-year-olds who take formal swim lessons. Similarly, learning to swim is also beneficial for older children and adults.

Swimming is an essential, fun, and rewarding activity for people of all ages and abilities!

What to Expect from Our Swimming Lessons in Boulder

At British Swim School, we offer a range of swimming lessons geared towards people of all ages and abilities, from gentle water acclimation classes that help timid swimmers build confidence to advanced stroke skills classes for aspiring swim team participants. All our class sizes are small, guaranteeing that each child will receive the focused attention of their instructor throughout the lesson.

What aspects of our program set us apart?

  • Survival-First Approach – Unlike many “traditional” swim schools, we focus on survival swimming techniques in all of our classes. Learning to swim means much more than learning the strokes; it’s learning water survival skills, water safety, and developing comfort in the water!
  • Goal-Oriented Program – Students receive five clearly defined goals for each class level. These goals provide direction, align focus, and promote a sense of self-mastery!
  • Individual Attention – As soon as the student masters the five goals of each class, they advance to the subsequent level individually and at their own pace. No waiting for others!
  • Small Class Sizes – Our small group swim classes allow the instructor to spend one-on-one time with each student and accommodate their learning style!
  • Year-Round Enrollment – Classes are held year-round in heated, indoor pools. New students can start learning at any time!

My son LOVES swimming lessons

Before starting with the British Swim School, my 5-year-old son had never taken swimming lessons, and he did not like getting his face wet. Now, he LOVES swimming lessons and has learned so much. The swim instructors and staff have all been warm and encouraging! Ryland C., Boulder CO
