We offer adult lessons for those who are looking to improve their confidence in the water with the guidance of an instructor.
Private 1-2-1 lessons
If you or your child would prefer a more intimate class our 1-2-1 environment can help.
What's included in our lessons
Swim for free
Free swimming at Bexhill Leisure Pool as part of our swim school so you can practice those skills!
Structured sessions
Our qualified instructors follow the Swim England Learn to Swim Pathway.
Lessons all year round
The benefit of our 50 week programme is that children will learn to swim and progress through the stages much quicker through consistency of learning.
Did you know?
That more than half of children aged seven to eleven years old are unable to swim a minimum of 25 metres unaided, meaning that just over one million children in the Uk are potentially unsafe in and around water and therefore at risk of drowning!
Our facilities are accessible to all
We work hard to ensure our centre provides the best swimming facilities possible. This includes ensuring our pools have accessible access, including a hoist. To ensure your safety all our pools are covered by friendly and highly qualified lifeguards to ensure the safety of all our swimmers.
In partnership with Swim England
We work in partnership with Swim England and Swim Wales to deliver a high quality Learn to Swim Programme for all ages and abilities.
All our instructors are experienced and fully trained to deliver the Swim England Learn to Swim Programme and are fully DBS checked.

Fantastic swim school, would recommend to anyone.

A while back now one of the female lifeguards had to pull my son out of the water when he got into trouble. I will be forever grateful.

Great staff and really good with my child who has additional needs.

The highlight of my week is my aquafit class with Jackie. I've made some lovely friends and feel so much better for being active.
