5th September 2008 My 2 children have been receiving swimming tuition from Ruth for 2 years. As a school principal I have been extremely impressed with the way Ruth caters for the individual needs of each child. The children have a lot of fun but make exceptional progress at the same time. She is able to be gentle and encouraging with the children who are afraid but at the same time she can calm and focus the more energetic children. The environment is fantastic and I throughly enjoy my hour relaxing in the sun each week. The children love their time in the spa at the end of each lesson, especially in the colder months. Keep up the great work Ruth!

1st September 2008 Ruth and her staff have successfully taught my two boys to swim. My eldest was 4 and terrified about even getting in the pool - now at 6 he is swimming lengths confidently. Everything about the lessons is clean and professional but best of all Ruth seems to have an understanding of where the children are at in terms of water confidence and teaches them from that point. Highly recommended!

1st September 2008 My two girls both have lessons with Ruth and her team, and I have found it fab! We have been elsewhere for lessons, including England and we have found Ruth and her team, the best we have had! The girls both have developed skills and confidence in the water, with lots of fun too!!!!
The lesson groups are small, which means each child gets plenty of one on one with the teacher, and an important thing for me as a Mother, was to see that Ruth and Lee, still have a passion to teach swimming and they love to see the kids all develop. I look forward to many more lessons with Ruth and Lee.

1st September 2008 My children have been attending this swim school since its inception and I highly recommend it. Ruth makes her lessons fun along with teaching swimming and water safety skills. Ruth always seems to know how to bring out the best in her pupils. I have a child who has had lessons since the age of 1 and the other who resisted the pool until the age of 5 and Ruth has taught them both to be confident and capable swimmers. The most notable feature of the lessons for me is that Ruth takes the time to teach each child at their own pace.
