Glendale, California 
Swimming lessons in Glendale are the most effective way to keep children safe around the water! Recent studies suggest that formal swimming lessons can help reduce the risk of drowning by 88% for children between ages 1-4 years. However, the benefits go well beyond safety.
Swimming is a fun activity that promotes social development, fitness, and self-confidence!
Our Approach to Swimming Lessons in Glendale
We teach more than swimming lessons. We teach water survival.
Since 1981, our survival-first learn-to-swim program has helped thousands of families become safer around the water. We offer a variety of swim classes for children ages three months to adults. New students enter a curriculum of water acclimation, water survival, and stroke skills following an initial assessment of age and experience.
Why is British Swim School a favorite among local parents?
- Survival-First Approach – All our swim classes emphasize water survival techniques. Why? Swimmers need to know how to survive in the water before advancing to stroke skills.
- Goal-Oriented Program – Each class contains five clearly defined goals to achieve before advancing to the next level. Setting goals provides structure and gives students multiple opportunities for achievement.
- Individual Attention – Our group classes take an individualized approach to learning, meaning students can advance as soon as they’ve mastered the required skills. This approach blends the benefits of group and private lessons.
- Small Class Sizes – Our small class sizes allow the instructors to provide personalized attention in a group setting. A true win-win!
- Year-Round Enrollment – Lessons take place in year-round indoor locations, so students can join any time and get started right away.

Hear From Our Parents and Students
We see progress with each swimming lesson
British Swim School has a respectful and gentle approach to teaching little ones how to swim. Our 4-year-old son enjoys his classes every week, and we see progress with each swimming lesson. We love their no-tears approach, allowing for the learning to happen at the pace of the student. When our son ‘graduated’ to the next level, he got a diploma, ribbons, and a new swim cap—he felt so proud! We are thrilled to have found this school. The staff is very responsive and communicative. Everyone has always shown kindness and a bright disposition. We recommend this program to anyone looking to learn how to swim in a supportive environment. Julien T., Glendale CA
