Personal Testimonies from Parents and Adults

 

  

I taught myself to swim years ago (badly) and have never been able to breath properly, have tried a few instructors who all tried their best, but I gave up before they did.

 

A friend took me to the swim academy where I met the most evil git going, (B) but through his determination not letting me quit and his “every action has a reaction” approach, I can now actually breathe properly doing front crawl and breast stroke.

 

Recommend it to anyone.

I had a fear of deep water since being a kid; thanks to Brian I was swimming in a week before my holiday.

All I can say is Thank you

My son was scared of the pool, Andy and Brian managed to coax him in after 14 minutes and now, Gavin enjoys swimming the classes are fun and he now asks when can I go swimming Mum.

Thanks SOS as I never thought he would learn to swim.

The swimming was what I though was my worst event so I got some help.  I was given the number of a triathlon swimming coach our own Brian Fernie.

Within about 6 weeks I was probably swimming twice as fast as I could have and could cover

maybe 4 times the distance

Both my children (5 + 7 yrs) have attended other swim schools in the past. I can honestly say they have both made remarkable progress during their time with SOS  due to the high standard of Instruction given by the Instructors, unlike previous clubs or programmes they attended prior to SOS.

Very good service, progress with my child's swimming has been considerable, Lessons are enjoyed and new aspects seem to be a great motivation to return for next weeks lesson.

     Small class and Instructors getting in the water with children helps the children learn what to do.

 As a parent of a child with learning difficulties (Autistic spectrum) taking swimming lessons with SOS Debbie and Brian I find the service given is excellent and Joe enjoys and understands the Instructors and has come on brilliantly.
