Testimonials

Claire Fry recommends Cindy's Swim School.

We love Cindy’s swimming. The teachers are all brilliant and my son has thrived in confidence since switching to Cindy’s. The lessons are small ratio wise and the teachers are consistent and there isn’t a high staff turnover like there is at a lot of other swimming lesson companies. My son George loves Hamza who pushes him but also makes the lessons super fun! Would definitely recommend Cindy’s to help improve technique, water confidence and for fun!
