“From Fear of Floating to Confident Swimmer in Just a Few Lessons "My son has been around water since he was four months old. He swims under water and is not afraid, but we could not get him to float. The kindness, patience and techniques at British Swim School got him floating in a few short lessons. He looks forward to next lesson and really enjoys his instructors- and ye, he's tried other programs and he has fought me to go to the lessons- so having him ask when is going again is an amazing win!! Thank you British Swim School - St John's!!”
“Worth the Wait: Why We Chose British Swim School "We were a family who was placed on a wait list for classes but we were willing to wait as this program is worth the wait! Once we were able to start we were blown away by the instructors, the program for children to advance in skill and just how well run it is! We are so incredibly happy with our experience through this program! The instructors again are just awesome with the kids and so knowledgeable! Without these instructors giving up their nights, weekends and days we wouldn't have little safe swimmers out there! Our family thanks this program for making our two girls safe swimmers!”
“Safety First: How Our Step-by-Step Curriculum Built Real Swim Skills "British swim school has provided my young daughter with the confidence and knowledge needed to gain basic swim and survival skills in the water.

Each lesson provides a recap of mastered skills, work in new skills and play time which is fun but also continues new skill development.”

They are amazing….”

Lessons are taught in small groups to support focused instruction and individual progress. Student-to-instructor ratios vary by program and skill level, with lower ratios in our water survival lessons and slightly larger groups as swimmers progress into stroke development.
