Swim Instructor

For over 40 years, British Swim School has been dedicated to teaching water survival skills to children as young as three months old.
Former CEO Rita Goldberg launched British Swim School from her home in Manchester, England in 1981 and developed the unique and highly effective teaching methods that are a recognized trademark of the brand today.
In April 2019, multi-brand franchising organization, Buzz Franchise Brands, acquired British Swim School but our mission has never changed.
Following the mantra, ‘Survival of the Littlest,’ we are dedicated to teaching water survival skills to individuals of every age and ability.
British Swim Schools offer swimming lessons for babies, children, and adults.
