My son is loving his lessons he has built up so much confidence in just his assessment and 1st lesson, he is on the autism pathway and can sometimes struggle in these environments but he has been made to feel relaxed and welcome , he now looks forward to coming each week and telling everyone what he has learned once he gets home.

My daughter absolutely loved her assessment. Mixed abilities in the assessment group and was surprised to see such amazing progress from the beginners, just within their assessment! I love the fact that you have UV pool filter so less chemicals and encourage no goggles. I was told that one of the reasons of choosing a UV filter, is to help with part of the survival skills you teach (being able to open your eyes under water) which is such an important life skill. The staff created such a positive, fun and friendly atmosphere. It can be difficult trying something new, in a new environment. My daughter was nervous to come but quickly felt at home and she can’t wait to come back! Would definitely recommend.

I didn't have chance to leave a feedback form yesterday following my son's week at Swimarium. He thoroughly enjoyed it and Keeley is amazing - great teacher and fantastic with the kids. His confidence has come on so much during the week and he's keen to go swimming this weekend to practice more and do some dives!This means a lot because he had a bad experience at his last swim school and then fell quite behind in terms of confidence and ability.
When I asked my son for his thoughts he said he loved it and thinks Keeley is 'the best'!
Thank you all very much and a special thank you to Keeley for making it such a positive experience. Hoping to join for regular lessons soon.

My son completed his Fast Track course today and he’s had a fantastic week. On Monday he couldn’t swim at all, at the end of Tuesday’s lesson he could swim a width unaided and today he swan an entire length with no floats.
I’m amazed by just how fast he progressed and he went from being worried about swimming lessons to loving every second of them! Big thanks to Bella & Tom for a great week!

My son finished his fast track on Friday. I would like to say a massive thank you to Sophie. How she teaches is aamzing. She makes learning to swim fun. She pays attention to every swimmer and helps them with what to do next. The pool is very very lucky to have her there. Thank you again Sophie.
In my sons own words ‘it’s the best pool ever.'

I just wanted to take the chance to say I’m absolutely blown away by the kindness and patience your team showed my daughter who had an awful experience with a previous swimming school and lost every bit of confidence she had. After a lot of tears initially she began smiling and high-fiving Kayleigh and the team. I’ve never seen her swim so confidently and that was in a brand new environment which she finds challenging anyway and was very nervous about. She came out absolutely buzzing and asked me when she can go again. So thank you so much for managing to raise her confidence in such a short space of time.

I just wanted to drop you a quick email to say how much my kids enjoyed their swim assessment this afternoon. He got in the car and said it was the best swim session he has ever had!! They also thought the pool was brilliant, perfect temperature... All in all two very happy swimmers who are definitely up for some lessons.
- Parent at Westbury
Thank you to the team for the assessment today. Both my sons loved it and can’t wait for their next lesson!!

We had a great time at the pool this morning.

My son thoroughly enjoyed the assessment today. I was so impressed with the swim teachers and how motivating they are with the kids.

We thoroughly enjoyed the assessment thank you - so much so Arthur didn't want to leave.
- Ms Slater
I just wanted to extend a massive thank you to Rick, Sarah and the team this afternoon, especially Gem who spent time with me and helped correct my breast stroke position. In that very short time I felt that I have achieved so much. The style of teaching is really user centric and targeted. The pool is lovely and the ambient temperature was spot on. I can’t say how much I enjoyed the assessment.
- Mr Duddy
I wanted to feedback about my adult swim trial. It was fantastic. I have never felt so relaxed in a pool with big thanks to the swim teachers for empowering me with confidence. I would like to continue with the classes as I learnt so much from just an hour. I'm excited about how much more I can gain from the classes.

The team are amazing and know the children SO well, I was impressed at how quickly they even mastered knowing their names! Lessons are tailored to the individuals despite them being group sessions. The swim teachers are professional and knowledgeable and great at ensuring pace, challenge and fun. I'm so glad we started our son here, he's come on so much. Being able to move through various 'stages' has really motivated him and he looks forward to his session every week.
Thank you swim school - you are amazing!
Mrs Blackford
Teachers and staff are outstanding. My children have been swimming with the swim school at Bracknell for 8-9 years, and we love them. There are too many good things to write down in a review like this. If you're looking at them for the first time, come around, watch a lesson, have a chat. You won't regret it!
Mr Zee
I just wanted to say how both Holly and Charlie put me at ease considering that I’m an adult beginner. Their constant encouragement, effort to explain the techniques and taking the time to answer questions is commendable. Anyone looking for swimming lessons in the area should surely consider The Swim School at Balsall Common.
Miss R
I really enjoyed attending the swimming lessons since I started in October 2020, it has given me so much confidence and I managed to reach Improver standard meaning that I am able to swim lengths in a standard 25m pool.
I would like to say thank you to The Swim School!
Mr Creed
Our son has been greatly enjoying his swimming lessons this half-term. He has had lots of fun and was swimming with a smile on his face every day which is a big thing for us, as he is usually not keen on swimming lessons. In fact, we had to stop some lessons in the past as he wouldn't leave the car to go swimming. This time he even suggested himself that he could continue with the weekly lessons after this half-term. I think this is entirely due to the swim teacher really resonating well with him. He really wants to continue onto weekly swim lessons.
Mrs De Froment
Swimarium is the best swimming school in Bracknell because of its coaching team! They invest so much time and effort to want your child to swim and progress to the best version of themselves. Always encouraging, always have good energy and they create a safe and fun environment for all the children. They are also good at interacting with us parents, it’s probably not always easy! I have put my three girls through the Swimarium and I commend all the swim teachers who have taught all my girls for many years and has always shown kindness, encouragement, dedication, professionalism and FUN! Thank you!
Mrs Moores
We have only had our swimming assessment so far but the staff have been so friendly and helpful and all my emails have been answered quickly. The pool is fabulous and the swim teachers we have met were brilliant with our four year old. We’re looking forward to starting our weekly lessons.
Mrs Leek
My son has been with The Sarah Harris School of Swimming in London since August 2021. I'm very happy with the progress and confidence that he has built. The teachers are very good - patient, fun but also focus on technique and really encouraging the children. The infrastructure is also very good - the pool temperature is particularly warm which is great. It has been a positive experience for us!
Mrs Bindal
Really patient and knowledgeable teachers. Highly recommend.
Mrs Kirkcaldy
My daughter has been swimming at the Linden Lodge venue for few years now. Highly recommend, all teachers are highly skilled and very friendly.
