Dean Greenwood Swim School

Good place to learn swimming very good staff

Today I went to watch my grandson Brook in the pool learning to swim.I must say the instructor was very good. Training toddlers under 4. Fantastic. Highly recommend.

Very disturbing experience here. Used force, coercion and they seem to thinks it’s okay to dunk children. Told my child “no tears!!” as she bawled her eyes out in distress. As my child cried and pleaded for me they told me to stay away and not give in and they just kept forcing her to participate while she endured this very traumatic experience. One instructor completely belittled and patronized me when I very diplomatically asked if they could be gentler with my child; I was told “well she’s going to have to get over it at some point”. This whole experience did far more harm than good as my child was left very afraid of the water. Completely unacceptable, swimming is such an important skill and it’s a terrible shame that this put my daughter off it altogether. I don’t blame her. Strongly do NOT recommend.

Well organized and everyone is included.

I am very impressed with their swimming instructors. All of them are friendly, patient, nurturing and watchful.. a perfect balance for beginners and those with a bit more experience.

Went swimming here as a small kid for many years. They have an excellent pool which is always well chlorinated and warm. The instructors are great with well designed lessons. The changing rooms are also always clean. The public are always nice and there are never any unsavoury characters there. The levels programme is great there. You must master all strokes of that particular level and only then you progress to the next, which usually adds new strokes and for longer. I got up to swimmer 800 and every step was amazing. Very fond memories, highly recommend. 5 stars!

We are so impressed with Nathan (Kelston swimming pool) my son's instructor. He communicates very well, where my son needs to improv, or do better. He is there always to talk to each child calmly, encpurage them. This what you want when your child is being taught - whether it be swimming, or anything for that matter.....

Attended my two adult swimming classes yesterday, and I had so much fun. The classes started and ended promptly, and the instructors were very nice, friendly, and helpful.Communication via email and other social media platforms were up to date.

Lovely supportive staff; great learning environment!

Great place for group swimming. Very accommodating staff.
