The Sheffield Swim School

Swimmers, meet Sheila, the mastermind behind The Sheffield Swim School in Sheffield, UK! Sheila’s got a knack for making swim lessons fun and effective while keeping things simple.

Sheila’s approach is all about focus – one class at a time, no distractions. Her instructors are there to give every swimmer the attention they need to make a splash in their progress.

Got a little one under 3? Dive into the Adult & Child class where you hop in with your kiddo for some structured instruction mixed with play. It’s a great way to ease them into lessons without clinging to your side all the time.

For the tiny tots around nursery age (about 3 years old), the 'ducklings' class is your go-to. Sheila’s got this one all figured out – get those kids learning basic skills while the adults stay dry (or ready to dive in when needed). These sessions last 40 minutes and are all about building independence.

Got the basics down? Move up to Pre-School stage 1-2 classes. Sheila’s program is designed for those who’ve cracked the duckling stage and want to dive into more structured lessons. Progression is the name of the game here.

More advanced swimmers can splash into stages 3–5. This is where Sheila’s team refines your strokes and gets you prepping for those longer swims. Classes last between 40 to 50 minutes, depending on the stage.

Now, here’s the deal – lessons run on a 10-week block system, all priced at £12 each, with payments in advance. Sheila’s got you covered with potential catch-up sessions if you miss a class.

Though the Grenoside site is currently closed, Sheila’s on the lookout for a new pool to call home. Meanwhile, fill out the online enrolment form to get on the waiting list and keep an eye out for other local swim schools.

Choose The Sheffield Swim School for a splashtastic learning journey. Sheila’s crew of dedicated instructors, the one-class focus, and their commitment to safety make it the ultimate spot for swimmers of all levels. Dive in with Sheila!
