WHAT WE DO

At Angel Swim London, our understanding and expertise in baby swimming and premium private lessons gives our students a huge advantage as their development is streamlined with a seamless transition from baby to independent lessons.

We teach babies from the age of 8 weeks old to 3 yrs, when they progress through the baby and toddler stages of swimming they can then swim independently and join the Angel Stage lessons (3yrs and above). Angel Stage lessons consist of private 1:1 and 2:1 lessons so that your child can get specialised feedback to develop and progress specific swimming skills.

We believe in quality over quantity with a maximum of 4 per class in our baby & toddler lessons. These small class sizes and private venues allow for our instructors to give each child the tailored feedback and attention that they deserve.
