Love to Swim

Confidence First. Skills Next. 💙 Some children simply need more time, patience and reassurance in the water. At Love to Swim, our small classes and experienced instructors help nervous, anxious and SEND swimmers build confidence before progressing their swimming skills.

Get Set Before Term Begins 📚 Weekly lessons return from 1 September. Whether you're returning after the summer break or joining Love to Swim for the first time, now's the perfect time to secure your September place.

Adult Beginners – Start This September 🏊 It's never too late to learn to swim. Our supportive adult beginner classes are designed to build confidence at a pace that works for you. Lessons available across East London, including women-only sessions at Stepney All Saints.

A brilliant day in the community! 💦☀️

We loved being part of the West Silvertown Summer Community Event on 15 August, where Carlos got involved and helped spread the Love to Swim spirit. 🏊‍♂️❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, got involved and made it such a fantastic afternoon!

Why Small Classes Work 👏 Small class sizes mean every swimmer receives more individual attention, helping nervous children build confidence and stronger swimmers continue progressing at their own pace.

Can They Float? 💙 One of the most important water safety skills isn't a swimming stroke—it's learning to float. At Love to Swim we teach floating first because it gives children valuable time to stay calm and call for help if needed.

Two young lives have been lost in local docks this summer. 💙

It’s a heartbreaking reminder that water safety matters even for confident swimmers.

If you get into difficulty in open water, remember Float to Live:

• Tilt your head back
• Keep your ears in the water
• Relax and breathe normally
• Move your hands and feet gently if needed
• Call for help when you can

And if you see someone else in trouble, don’t enter the water yourself — call 999/112 and ask for the Coastguard.

Please share this with your children, teenagers and anyone who spends time around our local docks this summer.

Holiday Water Safety 🌊

Open water isn’t the same as a swimming pool. Whether you’re visiting the beach, a river or a lake this summer, remember to supervise children, check for lifeguards, enter the water slowly and always know the depth before jumping. Swimming lessons help children build confidence and safer habits around water.
