International Swimming Academy

I can’t speak highly enough of ISA. They have entirely changed my son’s experience of swimming and he’s made more progress in six months with them than years elsewhere. The entire team are really friendly, helpful and brilliant with children. I was sceptical about how much could get done in 10 min but I was entirely wrong! Don’t hesitate to put your kids with them

My daughter has been swimming with ISA since she was 7 months old she’s now 2.5. It’s been amazing watching her journey to become a complete water baby! She’s very independent, so being able to reply on herself for her own safety in the water makes her unbelievably happy!! I can’t imagine how frustrated she would be now needing armbands or floats.The ISA instructors are so loving and patient. They do everything to help each child play to their own strengths.

Why did I choose the International Swimming Academy? It all started when I visited my friend and I saw all her little daughters swimming like a dolphins! I was really impressed by ISA system and at that time I was only pregnant, but I knew I wanted the same for Pernille :) My Daughter started her lessons when she was 9 months old with just a trial lesson... and since then I saw how important is for your child to start early so they get confidence and get used to water. My daughter is now almost 2 years, and this is the best decision I made. I see how she improves every week, she enjoys every second of her lessons. She loves the environment, every teacher which are all wonderful! So really I can’t recommend them highly enough. Communication and management from the whole team, is perfect.

Our now 2.5 year old son Angelo joined ISA in October 18 and we are extremely pleased with his progress so far. He started off unsettled, but this fantastic team at ISA soon made him feel comfortable and confident. He is now not only swimming and floating confidently during his sessions, but also on our holidays over summer 19 without floating assistance. The key factor for us as parents was the focus on safety and making sure all children respect and love the water (especially being Greek!). The facilities at Vanessa nursery are clean and the water always warm and comfortable for the kids! It is also noteworthy that parents can join a session and learn swimming techniques from the instructors prior to holiday season. The team is experienced, friendly and absolutely lovely with all children, we highly recommend ISA!

The International Swimming Academy takes a serious and effective approach to teaching kids to swim. It’s hard to believe until you see it for yourself. In the water, our five-month old rights herself on her own and gets her head above water. This after only 7 ten-minute sessions with these fantastic instructors. Our two-year old may be more intimidated by the water, but gained the skills despite her initial reluctance thanks to the ISA instructor’s patience and approach.We didn’t come here for our kids to play around, even though our daughter talks about each lesson for days afterwards. We came because ISA teaches infants survival skills in the water, and we couldn’t be happier with the result.

We tried another swimming school before with very little progress, and was amazed at how quickly ISA turned it around for my son who was very scared of being in the water. Their method just seems to work and we are delighted with the individual level of attention and encouragement he receives. Every week he learns something new and it's amazing how much can be passed along in these short lessons. We are very grateful to all at ISA, thank you so much!

I can’t recommend ISA highly enough! I was introduced to them by other mums in a local parents group and my husband and i agreed to give them a try as our 3 year old boy had not had any swimming lessons for 2 years, since the start of the pandemic. He was quite apprehensive with water during our recent holidays however he loved his first class and made progress almost immediately. Now 6 months later he can dive, turn around and float all by himself. He loves his teacher, Yasmine, who is not only wonderful but also extremely effective with her teaching, and he can’t wait to go to swimming class every week. Such a different experience compared to the other group classes he had previously which were longer in duration but progress was way slower. I don’t know anyone else out there who can do what these guys do. Thanks so much Silvia, Miguel and Yasmine!

We've been with ISA academy for a couple of terms and I can say nothing but good words about the staff and swimming teachers.My daughter started without any notions of swimming and has progressed to be an independent kid in water in just a few weeks. Her confidence on water has been astonishing since she started and she enjoys going to her swimming classes with Yasmine, who is kind, understanding and has a unique skill to link with kids to make them feel secure and happy while learning how to swimm and confidence in the water.

We highly recommend ISA - International Swimming Academy. The team adjusted a programme specifically for my daughters needs because we wanted to enjoy the experience as much as her. She loves having fun with them whilst learning. My daughter likes to talk about her sessions & her Tutor a lot.In a nutshell, ISA are unique, loving, flexible, empathic, patient & firm. They look after all the children well.Approach is results driven but remains caring of all children and that’s their willingness to be flexible on a individual child basis.
