We provide adult swimming lessons for all abilities in luxury hotels

1. Roughly half of our clients are taking adult swimming lessons as beginners, learning to swim or overcoming water phobia. If you are a beginner, we expect you to feel nervous and will help to put you at ease. Achieving your goals in the pool comes when the body and mind are relaxed, with much of this coming through the development of the correct aquatic breathing technique.

2. We also provide swim coaching for adults improving their swimming technique. Many choose to turn their head up breaststroke into front crawl, or are training for a triathlon. Other adults we see are keen to swim for weight loss, or to learn treading water for their next holiday. Many clients come to reach one primary goal whilst others stay as part of their swimming fitness routine for years.

I had always wanted to learn to swim, I decided to finally do so with a holiday coming up. As a 35 year old Male, I naturally had some nerves as a complete beginner. I had a 1 month window to try and become a competent swimmer. My Instructor was Josh, Josh was very professional, patient, motivating and clearly very experienced, he would always ask how I felt when adding in a new element to the stoke/technique and had the expertise to recommend adjustments if I was struggling with a particular part of the stroke. I could not have asked for anything else from an Instructor, he was faultless. The whole experience was great, I had no idea the process would be so easy-going, at no point did I feel I was unable to partake in any of the techniques as they were introduced, the lessons are spaced out in such a way that it makes you comfortable with each part of the swimming process gradually. I would highly recommend Turner Swim and Josh to anyone contemplating taking up Lessons. The entire process is very well thought out and actually very enjoyable. Thank You!

I joined turner swim after years of debating whether I should even consider learning in my late twenties. At 30 I decided to take the plunge!! All I have to say is my experience at turner swim has been nothing but exceptional. And that is primarily all down to my swim instructor Josh! Josh really got to know me and observe how I learn - he then taught me accordingly. He is very patient but also loves to see his pupils make progress so pushes them to reach their full potential. From being scared of both getting in the water to even attempt to learn how to swim and then actually learning how to swim is a huge achievement and I cannot thank Josh enough. So Josh thank you, thank you, thank you. I am so excited to have my first swim on holiday soon. Still can’t actually believe it!

I learnt how to swim as a child but lost confidence through my teens. I was nervous about getting back into the water but due to an upcoming beach holiday, I signed up for a 10-hour package to regain this life skill. Josh was extremely helpful. He taught at a comfortable pace and was patient, finding the best way to tailor lessons to match my progress. Now I definitely feel far more confident when I’m in the water. Most importantly, I can once again competently swim on my own. Would highly recommend if anyone is looking for adult swimming lessons in central London.

When I first started taking lessons with Josh @ Turner Swim, I didn't know how to swim at all. I can now go swimming confidently on my own and swim front crawl, back stroke and breast stroke! Josh is a great teacher and made me feel comfortable in the water. I would highly recommend!

I’d been contemplating swimming lessons for years and felt so nervous going into it but I’m so glad I took the plunge (pun intended). Lisa made me feel instantly at ease with her friendly manner and in less than 10 weeks I was already able to swim multiple lengths, something I never thought I’d be able to do. In my opinion I think this is an ideal place to learn to swim as an adult, being in hotels the swimming pools are already a really nice environment to be in and I would go in the evenings or weekends and the pools were always really quiet. The learn to swim programme is great too, the approach is simple all the steps are really methodical, not at all overwhelming and Lisa always took the time to explain why I had to do certain things i.e. to make the swim more efficient, not breathe in water etc. And honestly, it was so much fun! Couldn’t recommend Lisa and Turner Swim more.
