WHY  LEARNING  TO  SWIM  IS  A  LONG-TERM  COMMITMENT  AND HOW  WE  BENEFIT  FROM  IT

Being a competent swimmer is a long-term commitment that extends beyond simply being able to swim a length or stay afloat. By progressing through lessons, students can continually develop their strength and stamina in the water. It is through this commitment to improvement and ongoing practice that swimmers build the skills necessary to swim proficiently, strongly and safely. Even up to distances of one mile.

So when your child gets older and is jet-skiing ½ mile off the coast of Corfu you will rest assured they are safe and better able to get themselves and their friends to safety in case of emergency than if they could just swim perhaps one length of a pool.

Whether it's for fitness, recreation, or simply for safety, the long-term commitment to swimming offers a multitude of benefits that extend throughout a lifetime.

By investing in swim lessons, you're giving your child the gift of a lifelong skill that they'll enjoy and put to good use for years to come.

Here are some of the ways that children can benefit from learning to swim:
  1. Improved Physical Development: Swimming is a full-body workout that helps to develop muscle strength, coordination, and balance in children. It's also a low-impact exercise that's easy on growing joints, making it a great form of exercise for kids.
  2. Boosted Confidence: Learning to swim can be a challenge for children, but with practice and perseverance, they can gain the confidence and self-esteem that comes with mastering a new skill.
  3. Increased Safety: Knowing how to swim can be a lifesaving skill for children. Whether they're in a pool, a lake, or at the beach, the ability to swim can give them and their parents peace of mind and increase their overall safety.
  4. Enhanced Mental Health: Swimming can be a stress-reliever for children and a great way to clear their mind. The rhythmic movements and peaceful surroundings of a pool can help to promote relaxation and provide a sense of calm.
  5. Promotes Socialization: Swimming is a great way for children to meet new people and make friends. Whether they join a swim club, take lessons, or swim with friends, being in the water can provide opportunities for socialization and building relationships.
  6. Increased engagement: - Into a plethora of water activities, from surfing to water-skiing, a child who can swim has the confidence to take on these sports!

Learning to swim is a valuable investment for children. Whether they're looking to improve their fitness, boost their confidence, enhance their safety, or just have fun, swimming is a great choice.

So, sign your child up for swim lessons today and watch them dive into a lifetime of fun and benefits!

Both my kids have been going to Beaconsfield Swimming for well over a year. They both love it and it’s so good to see them growing in confidence . They love their instructor Samir, and Greg is fantastic, so easy to communicate with and checks in during every lesson to make sure we’re happy with progress. Would recommend ☺️

We love everything about Beaconsfield swimming lessons, the management and the coaching team and mostly the clear and obvious progress we see in our son's swimming skills.
Much appreciated

I'm not one for usually writing reviews, but Greg and all the instructors at Beaconsfield Swimming are just amazing.. Today is the last day for my eldest who has been there from stage 1 to the end. My youngest is progressing massively due to the encouragement and standard of teaching. So thank you Greg and all the instructors who have supported my children over the years!!! :)

Pool is lovely, swimming teachers are incredibly supportive and really know what they're doing. Really helped my daughter conquer her phobia of water.

I am so impressed with Beaconsfield Swimming. My boys have become so much more confident in the water so quickly and especially my little one, who I thought would never take to it so well. The teachers are all so lovely and Greg is absolutely amazing, makes such an effort with all the parents and make the kids feel so comfy and important.

Amazing Experience for Kids!
Beaconsfield Swimming has been absolutely fantastic for my kids. The instructors are patient, skilled, and truly passionate about teaching. My children have grown in confidence and improved their swimming skills significantly since joining. The classes are well-organised, and the staff ensure child feels supported and safe. It’s such a joy to see my kids enjoying themselves and making progress every week. Highly recommend!

A great swim school run by lovely Greg who really cares about each individual child. Swim classes are fun for children of all ages and it is lovely to see children progress through the levels. My daughter can't wait to go to her swim class each week. Highly recommend

We'll be coming back. We found this online and thought we would give it a go; so glad we did. The team were friendly, children orientated and keen everyone had a great time and developed their swimming.
Ratios were great and the team of instructors took time to learn names (and quirks) of each child to make sure they came out with plenty of smiles and wanting to come back. See you next time!

I cannot recommend Beaconsfield Swimming enough! My daughter started classes when she turned 4 (now 6) and is a very competent swimmer. My son has now started and is already loving it improving drastically in just a few sessions.
Greg is an amazing MD and treats all the kids as individuals and the children all love him too. He is accommodating to all requests when he can and you are able to make up classes so you do not lose out. Highly recommend!

A massive thank you for the brilliant intensive lessons this week! It’s amazing to see the progress in 3 consecutive lessons and as always the teachers made the lessons lots of fun. It’s a joy to see how happy both of our children are in their lessons with you.
Thank you! I will HIGHLY recommend to everyone I speak to!

Brilliant team of coaches run by Greg who is incredibly patient, friendly, fun and very enthusiastic - the kids love him! They always look forward to their lessons and even when they’re a bit tired at the end of a school day, the team rally them really well and we’ve seen them progress so much

I just can't believe how quickly my two have progressed with Beaconsfield Swimming school. They went from struggling to do widths at their previous school and complaining about every lesson, to swimming lengths and asking me to increase their classes. They absolutely love it. Brilliant team! Thank you

Our 7 year old has had lessons for a couple of years and he’s had the most fantastic time with your school. He’s come on leaps and bounds with his swimming, thank you so much!

We are so happy to have found Greg & his lovely team. They make swimming lessons so much fun and my daughter had gone from being scared of swimming (almost to the point we had to give up) to loving every minute and wanting extra sessions. She’s becoming a confident little swimmer willing to try anything. Greg & team are very encouraging, patient and understanding of children of any age. I can’t wait for my younger daughter to start in September and see her through on her little swimming journey. I certainly would not look elsewhere for the classes - highly recommended!

A group of very professional, knowledgeable and talented people. I was looking for a long time for someone to help my son learn swimming. As soon as I mentioned that my son has diabetes, no other school answered. Greg and his team are wonderful, warm people who are not afraid of any challenge. My son likes and trusts his teacher, he is learning very fast with amazing support. Highly recommended.
