Senior Teacher for both Baby & Pre-School & Swim Academy
Sunday Latchmere Leisure Centre
"Lourita has got that something special that makes us love her lessons so much. Her kindness, friendly approach and sense of humour make every lesson very enjoyable and not scary at all. For a little duck like Monika, it is very important as sometimes she scared to try new things like dive for the ring or jump. Lourita’s fantastic and intuitive approach to children takes swimming sessions to different level. Truly Amazing Teacher."

"Andy has been Ryan's swimming teacher since he was just 5 months old. His classes and teaching methods have given us, as first-time parents, and Ryan the confidence we need to feel comfortable in the water, whether it's during swimming lessons or bath time at home. Ryan's happiest moments are in the water, and thanks to Andy's instruction, he's developed strong water safety skills. Andy's impact on Ryan's love for water and his confidence in swimming is truly remarkable."

Helen
Baby & Pre - School Teacher
Sunday Whiteley Village
"Helen is unfailingly enthusiastic, encouraging and positive. Our son adores his swimming lessons and has so much fun every week. Helen always knows just when a duck-based incentive might be needed and really takes the time to get to know each of the children. She is also really clear with the adults about why there's a focus on particular skills and how these contribute to swimming development. It's been an absolute joy to see our son's love of the water develop and to see how confident he feels in the water. We're so grateful to Helen for all she has taught us!"

Danielle
Swim Academy Teacher
Saturday The Aspire Centre
"Danielle is a fantastic Swim academy teacher. Zara has come on so much since the long covid break as she was nervous about being in the deep end alone and about swimming lengths, but we are so amazed by her increased strength and improved technique recently, massively helped by the warmth and encouragement of Danielle who always remembers to say a personal well done to Zara at the end of each class which is massively appreciated by her and by us as parents"
