We go to the swimming lessons at King Hedges. The instructor is very good and my daughter (age 7) loves it.

I expect that children at the beginner level should be taught how to master one swimming style first, for example freestyle, until they become really good at it. Then, they can move on to the next style afterwards. Because if they are taught multiple styles at the same time, I can’t really see their progress. Thank you!

The pool was adequate

The pool was adequate. Slightly on the colder side for my 5 month old. However, the changing facilities were way below adequate. There was mould on the changing mats and ad a result no where to safely put my baby while changing. Unfortunately not what I was expecting for swim lessons
