What our clients say about our swimming lessons
Thank you for the lessons today; we thought Darren was a very good teacher. My daughter, Poppy, came skipping out very happily saying “it was my best ever”. I must admit he did seem to get her to progress in just that one lesson, swimming without holding on to him, but just using noodles and floats and on her back. She liked all the interesting things he made for her out of noodles. Lily is doing really well now with James. We are very pleased!!

My twins have now been attending Blue Wave swimming for 4 years which in itself speaks to the high regard I hold for the quality of the teaching. Both are now extremely confident in the water and have developed excellent skills across the range of strokes as well as diving. The teachers strike a good balance of being a friend but also making the children focus and work at what is a great life skill. In particular, my daughter at 7 is now a far better swimmer than me (and my son soon will be) and she has just been selected to represent the school at swimming (in 2016) which is entirely down to the teaching received at Blue Wave.
Mrs Victoria Kerrigan
Thought you would like to know that during a sailing course this (2015) Summer my son, John, calmly swam across the river Hamble a distance of about 200 m with a 4 knot cross tide. This would have been inconceivable only 6 months ago. Thanks for the great teaching and keep up the good work.
Mr S Stokes
We are delighted with the progress our daughter has made at Blue Wave Swim School. She was a novice when she joined one of their pre-school beginners class. I find her swim lessons well-paced, focussed and fun with professional and high quality instruction. My daughter looks forward to swimming every week, saying she prefers it to all her other sporting activities. She even asked to go to her swimming lessons after exhausting days at sports camp and on a school trip. We have attended swimming lessons at both of their venues; Wimbledon College and Burntwood School and happy with both pools. We would recommend Blue Wave to other families.
Mrs Denise Rea (Rebecca’s mum)
My son has gone through his learn-to-swim journey with Blue Wave Swim School and I’m so pleased with his progression. I’ve been taking my son to swimming lessons with Blue Wave Swim School since he was 5 years old. My son started as a complete beginner with Blue Wave Swim School and within 3 years, he can swim competitive strokes ; front crawl, back crawl and breast stroke , with good technique. He can swim laps in a 25 meter pool. I’m really happy with the quality of swimming lessons, swimming teachers and the facilities (Wimbledon College). He has also learnt a lot of water safety skills along the way and swimming has become his favourite sport. I highly recommend this swim school to any parent who is looking for quality swimming lessons for their children.
Mr Willis (Father of Joseph)
My daughter’s first swimming experience started by enrolling on “Parent & Child” swimming lessons with Blue Wave Swim School, when she was 18 months. We had never done any baby swimming lessons when she was a baby. So, she wasn’t a too happy bunny in the water to begin with. Teresa is 2.5 years old now, and has turned into a happy and confident child, who loves water. I really like how the ‘Parent & Child’ classes are structured at this swim school, and every lesson that we do is full of fun activities. I also really like the feeling of confidence that teachers transmit to the children. We have attended both sites for our swimming lessons (Wimbledon College). Every site has indoor heated swimming pools, with separate changing rooms and showers. My daughter loves her swimming lessons and during the week she keeps asking whether it’s Monday so, she can go “wimmin’”!

A good swim school with professional staff
My girls have been going to Blue Wave Swim School for over 2 years, they have been looking forward to each lesson and keep practicing the swimming tricks even in a bath. All teachers and an owner of the school has been friendly, very professional. They found unique approach and made kids happy, but most importantly show them how to swim and have fun. Thank you very much from our family to Blue Wave Swim School.

Easter 2021 Crash Course
Various lockdowns have held back my daughter’s swimming development so we opted for a crash 4 day course over Easter and she has come away from it much more confident and with a recognisable stroke as opposed to doggy paddle!

Although I have only attended two lessons, Marjan’s bubbly personality makes you feel instantly at ease. During the lessons, the pool was not very busy which is a good thing (as opposed to public pools) for those who are anxious.
I would strongly recommend to adults who have experienced trauma with water at a certain time in their lives.

My son has been going to swimming lessons at Blue Wave in Wimbledon for a few years now and thoroughly enjoys it. The teaching is great and the lessons well run. Helps to prepare him for when we finally get to go on holiday again!

Highly Recommended
My son went to improve his swimming technique and found his instructor very helpful, very kind and patient. The school itself is very welcoming and feels safe for all the children who go there. I would highly recommend it.

Excellent results
My son is 4 years-old and we were looking for weekend swimming classes in a nice environment that could bring good results. After some research we chose Blue Wave Swim. Our son has been having private lessons since the end of 2018 and he is progressing very well. We believe the professionalism of the team, the clean and tidy infrastructure, and the good care of the management are contributing for his development and confidence in the water. Thank you very much Blue Wave Swim!

Awesome!
I am grateful to Marjan and her team at Blue Wave Swim for their hard work and for promoting happiness and enjoyment in swimming. It is amazing to watch the lessons, see the attention, the encouragement and the support the children receive. I have been impressed with my daughters’ progress and the fact that they love attending their classes and learning a vital life skill. Thank you very much. Great job!

Superb Swimming School in Wimbledon
My daughter, who is now 7 years old, started with blue wave two years back and we have been very happy with her progress at the school. Initially we started with group lessons but once she got comfortable in water we moved her to semi private lessons, which made a lot of difference in her ability to learn swimming. As part of the smaller group she is better bonded with other children in the group and gets more attention from the swimming instructor, which is helping her advance her swimming skills. During her 2 years with blue wave, swimming instructors for my daughter have changed and while continuity in learning was maintained, I think this could have been managed better. Needless to say, she still goes and enjoys her time here and looks forward to her class every week. Overall we are very pleased with Blue Wave and would recommend them without any hesitation.

Highly recommend this swimming school. My daughter has been attending since she was 1 years old and she loves it. The teachers are very good with children and my daughter, who is now 4 years old is very confident in the water.
