Swim School

Our swimming courses give children the confidence to dive in and learn an essential life skill. Courses are designed around the Swim England “Learn to Swim” Programme with options for beginners, intermediate swimmers, and anyone in between.

Our Swim School

We provide swimming lessons in Central London for children from 6 months to 17 years old. We run lessons during the school term and during school holidays to help you find a course that fits around you and your child’s schedule.


Swimming is a necessary life skill — and what better way to teach your child to swim than in our large 25m heated indoor swimming pool?
