About The British Swim School

At British Swim School, we understand the importance of teaching children water safety and swimming skills from an early age. We have designed our program to meet the needs of everyone from infants and toddlers to adults of all ages. Our unique approach combines a survival-first philosophy with gentle teaching methods, allowing us to provide the most comprehensive learn-to-swim experience. For more than 40 years, British Swim School has been the preferred choice for parents and students. Our program has been proven to be safe, fun, and effective, helping each participant become a safer, stronger swimmer. We are proud to be the premier learn-to-swim provider for people of all ages and experience levels.

Programs

The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.

Swimboree (3 Months to 36 Months)
Building on our Tadpole skills from our infant and toddler swim classes, your little ones begin their water survival skills through a structured program of songs, games, and fun. Your swimming instructor will work one-on-one with you and your child. Students must meet the goals of our Tadpole swim class in order to enroll in Swimboree.

Seahorse (18 Months to 36 Months)
The swim instructor works one-on-one with each child following the same structure and emphasis on water survival as the Swimboree kids and baby swimming class. While the child is in the water, parents sit on the pool deck and actively participate in their child’s swimming lesson. Students must meet Swimboree goals in order to enroll in Seahorse.

Starfish (ages 3 and up)
A gentle water acclimation class for ages 3 and up designed to provide a positive environment to experience the water for the first time and build skills that will be used for the duration of the program. The overall goal is to reduce their fear and build confidence. We introduce a back float and full independent submersion at this level.
