“I’m absolutely loving learning to swim with Neve! I never thought I would overcome my phobia of water, never mind learn to swim but on my first lesson she made me feel comfortable enough to get in the water as she’s so patient and calm. She’s been so kind to me as I am autistic and always lets me know how I’m doing.
Neve is amazing at what she does as it’s obvious she loves swimming and helping others and I don’t think I could have done this without her! I feel as though I’m learning with a friend rather than a teacher and I can’t wait to continue and eventually have a go at snorkelling lessons in the future. Thank you so much Neve and Swim now”
“My daughter had lost her confidence in swimming and as a teenager it was holding her back from doing fun things on holiday or with her friends. Just 6 lessons with Claire set her right back on track and she is now a confident and capable swimmer. These lessons have been transformative and some of the best money I have ever spent. I need never worry again that she can't swim to save her life. Many many thanks.”
“Neve is a fantastic teacher and our twin boys have learned so much already from Neve. They look forward each week to their lessons and Neve has afforded them so much of her time and kindness it has made the whole experience for them all the more enjoyable. We would highly recommend Neve as she is a great person.
A absolute credit to swim now, and an unbelievable teacher.
Personally we would like to Thank you Neve for being you and helping our boys.”
“Highly recommend swim now. My 7 year old daughter absolutely loves her 121 classes with her instructor Ian. He is excellent at communicating with her and getting the most out of the lessons every time. She has come on leaps and bounds in terms of technique with all of her strokes, which is exactly what we wanted. She finds the lessons fun and is always keen to go every week. The venue at the Hilton Gateshead is also excellent. The office is easy to contact too via what’s app and Pete always come back promptly and efficiently to answer queries. All round, this is the best decision we made for an extra curricular activity for our daughter!”
“My 7 year old’s swimming teacher Aghi is brillant and attuned to my son’s needs. He uses a visual timetable to share the lesson plan. He works within his window of tolerance, pushing him but without making him
overly anxious. My has made much progress and he is now saying he loves swimming. Thank you”
“Clare was a brilliant teacher , very patient and understanding , my swimming has really improved and have no hesitation in recommending her lessons . The experience in dealing with the company was dissapointing , after connecting Swimnow after trial lesson , I was told that someone would contact me to take my card no , and only on insistence did the person accept my card during the call ! Also I understand I would have to complete a health questionnaire , which I never received !”
“Very forthcoming to book me in but ghosted me for months. I’ve requested for a refund multiple times and they have not processed it - £40 is a lot of money to not return to a customer you did not serve. Please do not give these folks your time and money.”
“I learnt to do breast stroke as a child and am reasonable competent at it, but have never been able to do front crawl. I have always wanted to learn but never had the courage to take lessons. Having decided it was now or never, I signed up with Swim Now with Clare as my instructor at Bristol.
Twelve weeks later I found myself at my local pool having completed my first 25m length of front crawl! I’ll be honest, I didn’t do this with just 12 half hour lessons, there was lots of practice in between lessons and a few ups and downs along the way. What was key though was Clare’s motivation every week and the fact she would push me on to achieve the next goal. Clare is a brilliant teacher, quickly sorting out issues that are holding you back and explaining/ demonstrating things in a way I could easily grasp.
I carried on with a few more lessons to improve my stamina and endurance, culminating in a 400m swim, which I never thought would be possible.
Thank you Clare.”
“Massive thanks to Neve at Swim now for her swimming lessons. With her Patience and useful tips, she helped me gain more confidence in my freestyle swim by helping me to improve my overall technique. Highly recommend”
“Absolutely made up with the progress my son is making with swim now .
Devontae was scared of water and on his second lesson was happily putting his face in the water .
He has just done his 5 metres and is so happy , a total different boy .
His teacher Neve is so very lovely with a calming nature and has him totally at ease building his confidence every week .”
“Our 9 year old daughter has had the best experience with the SwimNow team and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Daniel was her tutor and although she could swim well when we started the lessons, Daniel was able to take her swimming skills and confidence to a whole new level and to the point that we are considering swim clubs. His level of patience balanced by his ability to keep her focused and motivated on the lesson was exceptional! I also must commend the internal team as Pete was always available for any questions and updates which completed our enhanced experience with SwimNow.”
“Great communication throughout, very happy with SwimNow but what made it even better was our swim instructor Jaz. Jaz’s teaching is professional, clear and understanding. Jaz made swim lessons fun and enjoyable. Would highly recommend SwimNow and you would lucky to have Jaz as your instructor.”
“Donya the swimming teacher from Swim Now has been amazing! So patient and kind yet always gently pushing my son to be brave and improve his swimming. She is brilliant and I would highly recommend her.”
