Swimming for Children
We have over 20 years of experience in helping the children and adults of Edinburgh learn to swim. You can be sure that our lessons are expertly designed and delivered to get the best from each child at each stage, at an affordable price, in a fun and supportive environment.


Learn to swim with us
At our heart there’s a very special team of highly qualified and motivated swim teachers ( SSTQ and Level 2), who are supported to consistently provide the highest standards of teaching for each child.
And it’s not just about learning to swim, our kids have opportunities to:
- take part in our small and large galas, competing with kids from their own pool and pools across Edinburgh
- try out introductions to clubs and taster club sessions
- enjoying keeping fit in the water with our junior skills and drills, try diving or waterpolo
