A note from Glenda

Hi there! I have had a love for swimming for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a family of swimmers, I spent so many happy hours in water! I went on to enjoy some years of competitive swimming, and finally opened my first swim school in 1991, to pass on this passion and feel for water.

I had the privilege of seeing some of my early swimmers going on to become competitive themselves. But my main satisfaction was in seeing all of them learn to love the water. Starting with my own three children!

After some years devoted to raising my kids, it was a pleasure to get back into the water as a swim teacher seven years ago. I taught with two swim schools across nine pools, with children from 3 months to 12 years.

I am passionate for all my swimmers to come to enjoy the feel of water from little, and about developing teachers with the same ethos as mine. I am qualified with STA Swim Teachers Award, ASA Levels 1&2, STA Baby & PreSchool, STA Level 3 Diploma in Aquatic Teaching for Babies and Toddlers, as well as Lifeguarding (NPLQ). I have also completed an Aquasensory Course.
