The company has grown from doing just one or two lessons per week to teaching an average of 1000 children and adults every week, from complete beginners through to fitness swimmers, triathletes and even members of the British Team Small classes combined with innovative teaching techniques and the highest quality teachers & coaches are why we get such fast results in our students.
