“I had lessons with Pete before lockdown, I was immensely impressed with his patience and skill with a 60 year old non swimmer with a number of back and shoulder issues. I thoroughly enjoyed my holiday that year I was confident in the pool with my grandchildren it was awesome. Then lockdown came and I lost all my confidence so I made the decision to invest in a further set of sessions recently in preparation for my family holiday. What can I say?? Pete is so professional, always kind, but firm with high expectations of me. I am delighted to say, I have improved my confidence and stroke because Pete broke it down for me and thought about the best way to instruct me - I am better if I see things done, which he did, many times. I am eternally grateful to SwimNow but even more grateful to Pete for his skill, expertise and unerring patience. Thank you Pete I feel like a swimmer again. I would highly recommend both Pete as an instructor and SwimNow”
“As a 63 year old lady who had never been taught to swim correctly, I took the plunge and booked lessons with Swim Now, I have weekly lessons with Pete at the Mecure, Sheffield. Pete has been great, so very patient taking me back to the basics and building up the correct techniques to get me to swim correctly. If I don’t get it first time or even second Pete is patient and encouraging repeating the drills until I do!
Not there yet but I really look forward to my lessons and continuing my swimming journey with him. Pete is a wonderful, friendly and very patient instructor, highly recommended booking lessons you won’t regret it.”
“Lovely instructor Pete, who had lots of different drills to help my boys improve. They were also different levels so was able to work with them both at the same time whilst pushing them appropriately.”
“I’ve been wanting lessons for ages to improve my front crawl and breathing and I’m so pleased I found Pete at the Mercure. He is patient but also sets high expectations. He breaks down each aspect of the technique and gives clear instructions throughout. I’ve made good progress already. Thanks Pete.”
“My daughter has attended 1:1 swimming sessions with Ryan, having been scared and stressed in group swimming sessions previously. Within the first 5 minutes of the session Ryan put her at ease and by the end of the session she achieved more than she had done in months of group sessions. She continues to look forward to and enjoy the sessions. Thank you.”
“Starting swimming lessons with Swim Now is the best decision I’ve ever made! I’ve always loved being in the water but have never been a strong or confident swimmer which has put me off taking up swimming regularly. I’ve only had my assessment and one lesson with Heather and the increase in my confidence is unbelievable! Heather is teaching me to ‘’swim with a smile 😊’ she is a patient, positive and enthusiastic teacher and I look forward to my lessons so much, really sets me up for the week ahead. I can’t recommend Heather highly enough🙌 If you’re an adult thinking it’s too late to start, please don’t, just go for it, you won’t regret it 😊”
“Kim is amazing. She is very encouraging and enthusiastic about helping her clients. She is easy to interact with, which made me feel comfortable throughout my lessons. After my first couple of lessons I felt confident to do more independent swimming at my local pool. Thanks to Kim, I believe I’m ready for my holiday. Thank you so much Kim. You are a gem!!”
“Hi I had Janet...at Crewe Hall fir my 2 boys, she was very good and gave them looks of confidence.
Down side, expensive and lessons need to be slightly longer.”
“I highly recommend my swimming teacher Amy. She is friendly and patient and has helped me overcome my fears of water. She adapts her teaching to my pace but is always encouraging and I have achieved more thanks to her than I thought possible. I am very glad I started lessons with SwimNow and I believe that Amy will help me to keep improving. Amy has great listening and communication skills which makes her a great teacher and a fun person to have lessons with.”
“Robyn is brilliant! She put me at ease straight away when I was nervous. She is friendly, approachable and is really easy to get in contact with. She explains things really well and pushes me when she knows I lack confidence or am hesitant. She is reassuring and I have enjoyed my lessons. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Jenna has been absolutely amazing! Her no nonsense approach to teaching has been just what my girls have needed. They are more confident than ever in the water and it won’t be long until they’re swimming unaided and that’s after 3 lessons! Thank you”
“Shocking!!!!! , pool used not fit for purpose asked for a refund but they refused, didn't even bother going to any of the other lessons I'd already paid for”
“Pete in Sheffield is excellent teacher. Very thorough and encouraging. His teaching style makes it very easy to understand basic concept. Thoroughly recommend him”
“I booked joint lessons for my children aged 12 and 13. Our teacher, Robyn, was absolutely brilliant. The children enjoyed their lessons and felt motivated by Robyn. Most of all, their swimming has improved LOADS!”
“Pete is a great teacher! I feel much more confident in the water and have really improved my front crawl technique with his tuition. Breaks down the fundamentals and makes it easy to understand.”
