Koi Swim School is probably the best swim school in the area. Justyna and her wonderful team have consistently delivered incredible results when it comes to teaching my kids about swimming and safety, whilst factoring in all their insecurities and fears. Their confidence and happiness has changed so much in the matter of a few weeks, and thats full credit to KOI SWIM SCHOOL. Thank you all.

We took Max swimming on Sunday and he had loads of fun in the pool. He was doing one potato, two potato to move along the side of the pool so he could climb out and jump back in. Was really lovely to see how much his confidence in the water is growing. Thank you!”

I cannot recommend KOI SWIM SCHOOL enough. My eldest has been swimming with Justyna and her team for over 5 years and is such a confident swimmer and has learnt so much! She is swimming independently, understands safety and is truly making progress with all her different swims! And my youngest started a year ago when he was 6 months and my gosh is he also super confident but also aware of safety in the pool thanks to Justyna's incredible teaching methods! I have recommended many of my mum friends and school mum friends to join and they have all told me it was the best recommendation I made!

Our son really looks forward to his lessons

Justyna is easily the best swimming teacher we have met. She bonds so well with the kids and is great at making them feel keen and confident about trying new things. Our son really looks forward to his lessons, and is so keen to impress. As a result, his enthusiasm for swimming, confidence and capability have significantly improved.

Highly highly recommend!

Our now 5 year old daughter joined Koi when she was 3.5 and was very anxious and not at all confident in the water. Within weeks Justyna had her confidently putting her face under water and jumping in and she is fast becoming a very confident swimmer. Justyna is just a fantastic teacher, so patient and warm with the children and most Importantly making them feel safe. Highly highly recommend!

I’m glad I found koi swim school. Both my children have started swimming recently and have made amazing progress. Justyna is an amazing teacher with excellent teaching skills to work with the child’s needs and abilities, instilling confidence and trust in her little swimmers. My children are more confident in water and I am so happy with their progress and can’t wait to watch them progress further. To the whole team thank you.

Justyna is absolutely brilliant

Justyna is absolutely brilliant. My daughter is very cautious and logical by nature. Justyna picked up on this within the first couple of weeks and helped my little one get comfortable in the water. This was a big win for us as previously my little girl was attending a different swim school for almost 10 months and had not made much progress. Thanks so much.

I cannot praise Justyna and her team enough!

My son was extremely anxious and nervous of the water when he first started swimming lessons with Koi Swim School, but thanks to their techniques, effort, dedication and care, he is now a confident swimmer who loves being in the water!! I never thought he would reach the ability he has and I can’t recommend them highly enough.
I am looking forward to starting lessons with my 3 year old next term.
Thank you so much Justyna!

Justyna has been absolutely amazing with my son during his lessons. I have used a number of other swim schools for both my children but none compare to Justyna @ Koi.

She works with his nerves and encourages him, and this has made him into a confident swimmer so far! He enjoys his lessons and I enjoy watching him grow in confidence each week!

I just wanted to take the time to say how amazing I think Koi Swim School is and Justyna in particular. Before Koi we tried 4 other swim schools/classes - non of which Jack enjoyed or felt confident in and as a result he was scared of the water and swimming. To see him enjoy swimming right from the first class to now feeling so proud of himself for achieving his little swimming goals makes both of us very happy! Thank you Justyna!

We joined Koi swim school this term, my son loves the water and is getting more and more confident each week. The teacher is very encouraging.
The pool is in a beautiful setting and warm which helps his attention span as previous swim schools the pool is too cold for my little one. We are excited about going next term.

Justyna is amazing with the children. She makes them feel calm in the water, despite their ability. My daughter was frightened of putting her face in the water and now she’s actually swimming! I would thoroughly recommend Koi.
Sarah Lowis

Our daughter has been attending Koi Swim School since January and we are delighted with her progress. Her confidence in the pool has greatly improved and she happily takes on any tasks during the lessons like retrieving the rings from the bottom of the pool. Before we started the sessions, our daughter would not even put her face in the water so the progress she has made with Justyna is fantastic. We have just enrolled for a third term with Koi Swim School and our daughter cannot wait to return after the school holiday.
Lindsay Jones

From the start I’ve been very impressed with how the team at Koi Swim School have listened to our child’s needs. They’ve been both encouraging and nurturing, ensuring our child enjoys the lessons and is able to partake at their own pace while still progressing. We feel very lucky to have Justyna teaching our child and she has our utmost thanks.

Holly absolutely adores her swimming classes and is progressing week on week.
Justyna always greets the children with the brightest smile, makes them feel completely at ease and has created a very successful swimming programme that they all seem to love. Really can’t fault Justyna and her team at all!
Katie Gilding
2021-07-19
I can’t believe how much my son’s swimming and confidence has improved in such a short space of time. In just a few months he has gone from not wanting to put his head under and not wanting to let go of me, to independently doing lengths using a swimming noodle, floating on his own, and happily diving under water using goggles! Really impressed by the teaching and the methods used.
Jo Read
2021-07-19
I cannot recommend Justyna and her team enough. I joined Koi after my previous swim teacher let me down as she was not empathetic nor helpful when my little one was struggling. Justyna and her team care so much about the little ones, their development, their understanding and their safety.  They are also fab with us parents who are also learning! My little one is always reminding us we have swimming, she has a spring in her step when she knows it's time to go and she has improved her confidence in the pool no end, and this is solely down to Justyna and her team.

It has been fantastic to see my son gradually gain his confidence after 3 years out of the pool due to ear infections/perforations. Thank you for being so patient with him.

Both of my children swim with Koi and love it. They have both developed so much and are both confident in the water which is all down to their brilliant teaching. I couldn’t be more thankful. Having taken my 3 year old swimming since she was 4 months, she’s developed more in 5 months with Koi that 3 years elsewhere!
Katherine Savage

My daughters swimming has come on leaps and bounds since she joined Koi. After trying 2 other swimming companies I was beginning to wonder if we would ever find the right answer. Koi has been excellent - the difference was evident after the first session.

Our 3.5 year old loves his Koi swim lessons and we're so pleased with how his confidence is developing in the water, thanks to Justyna and her team. Justyna's approach is nurturing and calm at all times. We're excited for our 8 month old to start her own lessons, we're sure she'll enjoy them as much as her brother.

I’m so glad I started my son’s swimming journey with Koi: we started a class when he was 11 I weeks old and the first few sessions were challenging but Taya is such an amazing teacher and supported my son and I through this. He now loves the water and splashes as much as he can!

Justynna is a superstar!

Justynna is a superstar! She has taught all three of my children and I was fortunate to have my children swim with her pre Koi’s Creation. My boys swam with her from 12 weeks and are both extremely confident in all 4 strokes. Xx

KOI swim school has fantastic teachers who are excellent at tailoring their teaching style to meet individual needs. Their teaching is so supportive and full of positivity.
Hazel Crompton
2019-12-12

“My children, aged 6 and 8, have had swimming lessons from Koi for the last 6 years and they are wonderful swimmers now!

Justyna (the lead teacher) is passionate about teaching swimming in a way that truly engages the children in an enjoyable way. She has a special intuitive understanding and connection with those children who are a little anxious and she can produce amazing results in the water.

Each child is assessed and placed in the correct stage for their ability rather than age, and enjoyment is always central to the teaching.

Teaching is done as a small group lesson and private sessions are available too, which really can help to build extra confidence if needed.

It is wonderful teaching and great fun for the children too. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.”

Jo- Epsom

“Koi Swim School are effective, fun, reliable, consistent and friendly.

They have taught both of my children to swim.

The lessons are in small groups and the teachers differentiate to give individual support or challenges to those children that need it. Justyna is friendly and approachable and all her staff are of an excellent standard.

If you want your child to learn a life skill then using Koi Swim School to teach your child to swim is an excellent investment in your child.”

“I can highly recommend Koi Swim School. We have been with them for the past 1.5 years and my child has impressively improved their ability to swim. The teachers there are very friendly and helpful.”

Monika Corbin

Justyna is amazing. My son absolutely loves his class with her as she’s managed to turn a rather tense little boy into one who loves the water. I have seen how she’s takes the time to get to know each child for who they are, changing her approach to ensure they learn in a way they need it without pressure, but without giving up . I’ll be forever grateful for what she’s given to my son in helping him  to love water, as well as to learn to trust himself. Thank you !
Carol Evans
2019-11-19
Absolutely love swimming lessons with both my girls. Taya has been incredible with my strong willed 3 year old. Through patience and kindness she’s come from a place where she hates getting her face wet to jumping in and going under the water. I can’t thank her enough.

Justyna is also incredible. My 10 month old absolutely loves lessons. Seeing her enjoy the water so much and become so confident is beautiful. My only regret is I didn’t switch my 3 year old to start with Koi sooner!
I’ve also learnt so much and can only thank both teachers for their encouragement and guidance.
Kat
2018-07-28
Both my boys love swimming with KOI. Taya is incredible. Her fun, patient approuch has instilled confidence in a very nervous swimmer. 
When Benjamin started he wouldn't even get in the pool but through Taya's encouragement and direction he's now excited before every class!
Oliver is really coming on too and even enjoys going underwater for the rings - something I didn't think I'd ever see.
Thank you Taya! You've made my children love the water!!
Gemma
2018-07-28
Since Jasmine + Maximus have been swimming with Taya their confidence has come on massivly.
Maximus wouldn't put his eyes in the water and had a fear of it for years.
Together with Taya he now swims confidently with his eyes in and independently.
Taya has been increadibly patient and very adaptive to each of the childrens needs.
Sonia
2018-07-28
Cannot sing Taya's praises highly enough. Lois has excelled in her swimming lessons, and that's all down to Taya's spot-on teaching style. She is patient, kind, funny and firm when needed. She really engages the little ones and encourages them to try new skills. We've had a few different swimming classes as we've moved around but KOI has always been the best and I highly recommend the classes especially if your child is unconfident.
If ever we have to move from Taya's classes, we will miss her hugely!

Toby's progress since starting lessons with Justyna has been amazing.He has always enjoyed being in the water, but he is now a confident swimmer who has learnt a very important life skill in a surprisingly short space of time.

Emma is just fantastic. She has such a warm + friendly nature and my daughter has gone from strenght to strenght over the last few weeks.
Personally I have found KOI to be very flexiable + will to help + accomodate you as best as possible. It's been such ashame there has been no intrest in the 3.30 Wednesday preschoolers class.

Look forward to seeing you again in September.

Our girls are now learning technique in their strokes. They are going from strenght to strenght.

Absolutely love KOI SWIM. Justyna is fabulous and really helps our daughter.
Doing a 2-1 means she can address any concerns right away and really helps motivate the kids as well. She's patience and kind but can also be firm when it's needed. I would absolutely recommend Koi swim (and already have been).
The only thing I would change would be to rope off a section of the pool so the swim in uninteruppted. (However Justyna really makes it work).
Sandy

Justyna is the most amazing teacher. From the very first class she made our son feel safe and comfortable.
In such a quick time Justyna has helped Jose progress from being terrified of water to completing lengths on his own.
Justyna has something special and we feel incredibly lucky to have her teach Jose.
Chrissy

I could not ask for more in swimming teacher.
Justyna is kind, encouraging and adapts her teaching to the child she is teaching.
My daughter has special needs and in a matter of months has gone from not wanting to go in the water to jumping in and swimming. I had never dreamed this was possible.
Thank you.

Justyna is a very calm, patient and kind teacher.
She has taught both my daughters for 3 years and both girls look forward to their Friday lessons with her. She encourages and pushes the children, she corrects technique and varies her lesson plans to ensure the children do not get bored. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her lessons - she is brilliant :-)
Mandy Jensen

Justyna is a very calm and patient teacher. She, Taya and Emma have taught my children for more than 6 years and not only are they competent swimmers now, they are confident in the water and have been excellent skills in water safety.
Thank you very much to Team KOI!

Justyna provides a safe and caring environment for bubba's to learn how to swim and build their confidence in the water. As a new mummy and somewhat apprehensive to the whole 'dunking/diving/underwater' experience Justyna worked at my speed and took great care to ensure I was happy and confident enabling me to feel secure when trying a new stage/level with my daughter.
 
Class sizes are small so you gain from individual attention. Justyna is very in tune with both mummy and baby - I can't recommend the classes highly enough.
Sally

Justyna is a fantastic teacher, so warm and friendly.
My daughter is a bit cautious in the water, but Justyna's lessons are making her much more enthusiastic and confident.
Susie

Excellent teaching from both Taya & Justyna over the 3 years both my children have been coming.
Always feel their safety in the water is their primary concern.
Always very happy and positive with the kids.
Pleased too when you are strict with the children (especially the girls who get easly distracted).
Kate

Ava & Stanley both really enjoy their swimming lessons with Justyna & have progressed so much (especially Ava).
Justyna is alble to give them confidence in themselves whilst still being able to push them to progress.
We have tried other swim schools but have definitely found KOI to be the best one.
Siobhan
2018-06-27
What a difference half a term with Justyna made! My little boy went from being anxious in the water to happy and content. We have tried 3 different swimming classes in the last 5 years and he has always hated them and cried before each lesson. Justyna and Emma made swimming fun, engaging and enjoyable and he actually looks forward to his lessons. He has always hated having water on his face and in 4 sessions he was diving down under the water and nearly swimming on his own!
 
Thank you.

I have a 6 year old son with high functioning autism and although he loves water we had struggled to find a swim school that was able to get him successfully swimming. A year ago my son began 1:1 lessons with Justyna; we were delighted and surprised to find he was independently swimming within a few lessons and has since gone from strength to strength! Justyna is a wonderful swimming teacher and I thoroughly recommend her.

Helen
2017-11-17
My son had lessons with Justyna when he was little and we’ve had to move around a bit to fit around school timings, and I’ve never found any of the classes to be as good as hers. He now learns with school. However, once his little sister started lessons, I thought of Justyna immediately and she is so patient and calm and energising and in control. She keeps the class fun and also stops any messing around on the side that happens when the little ones are waiting their turn! Once my daughter moved on from baby classes we started with Taya and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough for little ones. She just knows how to talk to them and keep the engaged and listening and safe, she’s fantastic. My daughter had to stop lessons for a few months due to ear infections, and when she came back she had lost some confidence. Taya helped her build it back up and she’s progressed so much in a short space of time. My daughter loves her and insists on hugging her after each lesson! I recommend Justyna, Taya and Koi classes to everyone, I’ve never ever found a class that’s so in control or instructors that know how to talk to the kids in the right way or lessons that get such consistent progression out of my children, who can both swim thanks to Koi. Quality lessons with professional, child-friendly instructors and money extremely well spent, without any doubt.

Koi has made both my sons love swimming and be so confident in the water. I really can't say enough about Koi's encouragment, praise, and pushing boundaries which any swim school would find hard to beat.

Justyna is a patient and understanding teacher who inspires confidence in children at all levels of ability. She focuses strongly on getting the technique of swimming right but also somehow manages to make the lessons fun! My 2 year old and 6 year old look forward to their lessons. They are happy and confident in the water which is just what I wanted for them!
Lynn Beaton

Justyna has been teaching both our daughters since they were just 12 weeks old. Our 3 year old loves the water and is such a confident and happy swimmer. It is all down to Justyna's teaching; she runs her classes with energy and calm guidance. And as a result, we both look forward to her classes every week. My littlest daughter also loves her lessons and I know she will be confident and safe in the water just like her sister. Thank you!

Emily's progress has been fantastic since Justyna has been teaching her. Especially once I was out of the pool! Emily (3) has total trust in Justyna and absolutely loves her swimming lessons. She can now swim over 10m. We are so happy we can continue with Justyna for another year. I would (and have) wholeheartedly recommend KOI SWIM SCHOOL to anyone.
Jane Nelson
2014-07-03
Justyna is quite simply the best swimming teacher for little ones that I have come across. We moved abroad for a year and my daughter lost all her confidence in the water due to poor teaching. Within a few lessons of returning to Justyna, she has regained her confidence and is extremely comfortable in the water now. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Elizabeth Mucha
2014-07-02
My son has been swimming with Justyna since he was 3 months and he's now 3 years old. She's a fantastic teacher - confident and fun, and this inspires confidence in both parents and kids. Her classes are so well structured that the kids don't get bored, but she also knows their limits and has a natural instinct for how far she can stretch them. It's amazing to watch her calm and inspire a child who's feeling unsure in the water. Just fantastic. I can't recommend her highly enough.
Andrea Oakenfull
2014-03-07
Justyna has taught my 4 year son for almost a year. He loves her classes and it is amazing to see how far they come each term. Justyna is calm, gentle and a teacher always in control. Her lessons are structured and yet take in the needs of all children in the class. I have no hesitation in recommending Justyna as a fantastic swim teacher!
Sarah Entwistle
2014-01-02
Justyna is a fantastic swimming teacher. My two children love their lessons and is the highlight of their week. They are both confident swimmers and love the water. Justyna pushes them based on their ability which means they develop at their own rate. It is lovely to see them both grow with confidence each week. We travel nearly 45 minutes to swim with Justyna and it is worth every minute. We loom forward to swimming with you for many years to come!

On the 17th November my little boy turned 3. Today, the 21st of November, he swam 15 metres, a whole length completely on his own. My little girl who is 20 months old can pick up rings off the bottom of a pool. When we were on a family holiday in France this summer she accidentally fell in a swimming pool, but she did not sink, she remained on the surface ready for her dad to scoop her out. They have both been swimming with Justyna since they were 11 weeks old, and what she does with them is amazing. I am regularly told what fantastic swimmers they are for such young ages, and am willing to tell anyone in return how amazing Justyna has been with them both. Thanks for being a wonderful teacher Justyna. Our whole family gets so much from swimming, and we have you to thank for it. The kids really love you and we all look forward to our weekly classes and what they achieve at such young ages under your caring tutoring.

Picking the right swim school for my daughter was a very tough decision but I am so glad I picked Koi. Justyna is fantastic with the kids and the classes are varied and fun. My daughter has come on so well since starting swimming lessons earlier in the year and Justyna's classes are the highlight of her week. The pool setting is great and the class is fully equipped. I have met some good people there too. Well worth the money.

Justyna is an amazing teacher. She is very caring and she certainly gets the results. The children enjoy swimming and become very confident. I would highly recommend KOI SWIM SCHOOL to any parent who wants their child to learn to swim to a high standard in a calm, enjoyable environment.

Justyna has been teaching our daughter Elizabeth since she was 6 weeks old. She has an extremely calm manner with children and she makes learning fun by the way she treats children of various age groups with understanding and respect. Elizabeth trusts her implicitly which has resulted her now being very confident in water and able to swim unaided at the age of 3 ? years old. Thank you Justyna for being such a great teacher. We are so happy that we found you!

My son Max has been swimming with Justyna since he was 4 months old. 3 and a half years on he is always excited for his lesson. Justyna is a fabulous teacher and the children and parents both adore her! She also gets fantastic results from the kids. Max was so proud to get his 10m badge at the end of last year. As a South African who grew up swimming I'm really impressed that he can swim so far unaided at such a young age. Our second baby is due next month and I've already asked Justyna to book us onto the classes starting after summer. I cannot recommend Justyna enough, if you're looking for lessons for your children, look no further!

Justyna is the best start any child (and parent) could wish for in swimming. Justyna is wonderful with the children and her gentle, intuitive teaching methods have been instrumental to my daughter's confidence in the water. I grew up in Australia, so learning to swim is very important to me as it was so much a part of my childhood and a life saving skill. I am proud that when back in Australia, Mia gets compliments for her confidence and ability in the water. We love Justyna to bits, and would have no hesitation in recommending her.

My son has been having lessons with Justyna for 6 months now and absolutely loves it. He has gained so much confidence in the water and we both look forward to our sessions every week - it is the highlight of our weekend! Justyna is a complete natural with children of all ages and normally timid and shy toddlers seem to be instantly at ease with her. I am recommending her lessons to all my friends!

My son has been swimming with Justyna since he was 9 weeks old and continues to do so, now aged 3. Her firm but nurturing teaching style is fantastic and my son loves the water as a result. What's particularly good is that Justyna teaches the kids properly from the outset, they've never used armbands or inflatables such that my son can now swim confidently and safely in the water without dependency. We follow her (for swimming lessons!) wherever she goes, she's that good!

All three of my children have learnt to swim with Justyna who is quite simply the best swimming teacher I have come accross. She has a fantastic way with children; she is firm and really gets them working but is also so kind, caring and encouraging letting them develop at their own pace. She also teaches them great technique and it is a pleasure to watch them swim so confidently. I just wish I had been lucky enough to have had a teacher like Justyna when I was young!

One of the best decisions I ever made when I had my first daughter was to enrol in one of Justyna's classes when she was eight months old. Three years on and Ava is a confident little swimmer, who absolutely delights in being in the water. I'm now back with baby number two who, at almost seven months, has no qualms swimming underwater. I would recommend Justyna to any parent - she has a wonderful rapport with children and brings out the very best in all of them. I've never seen so many little people listen quite so intently as they do to Justyna, which is testimony to her calm, encouraging nature.

My son, who is nearly 5, loves going to his swimming lessons and has come on so quickly in just one term. He is really confident and happy in the water which is lovely to see. We would highly recommend Justyna, she is a brilliant teacher!

Justyna has taught both our boys from 12 weeks old. She is quite simply brilliant and we couldn't recommend her more highly. Despite moving house, we made the journey back to our old area to keep up the swimming classes with Justyna as we didn't want to lose her. Our boys, now 1 and 3 both really enjoy swimming every week and are completely confident in the water. Sign up to her swim school today!

Justyna taught my older daughter from the age of about 18 months and with her Alice really grew in confidence and is now a good swimmer at the age of just 5. I like to think Justyna taught my younger daughter from the womb onwards as she attended Alice's classes in utero and then in person from about 12 weeks. Lauren has always been very relaxed in the water thanks to Justyna's calm, patient yet challenging approach. Now at 3 other parents are astonished as Lauren throws herself into the pool and swims competently on her own. We all love Justyna and thoroughly recommend her tuition.

I am on baby number 2 with Justyna and we all love her! My oldest boy is 3 now and is so happy and confident in the water. Justyna is fantastic at really taking each lesson at the right pace for each child. We have followed Justyna to a new pool and will stick with her as long as we can! I would recommend everyone to this swim school.

Justyna is a true gem. Sophie who is three and a half started when she was 4 months old and Lily now 22 months at the tender age of just 8 weeks. We have always travelled the extra mile to attend classes at the venues she teaches at as there is just something special about her way with children.

She is incredibly calm and fun and gains their trust quickly and she gets great results. She provides superb customer service to the parents too, always fair and accommodating. And my girls adore her!
Thank you and long may it continue

Justyna has taught both my daughter and youngest son to swim. They both started as new borns, barely a few weeks old. They loved being in the water straight away. Both were swimming independently at 2. They had no fear of the water at any stage, and absolutely love swimming as a result. It has been wonderful to know that from very early on they were safe around and in the water. We all love Justyna, who has such a wonderful natural way with the children. And the lessons have always been really great fun for the kids.

My eldest son started swimming with Justyna when he was about six months old, my second son was even younger. I came back to Justyna with my second as she was SO brilliant with my first. Both my boys adore her and so do I. She is amazing with the children and neither of them have any fear of water whatsoever, which I put down to the fantastic swimming classes they've had. I trust Justyna completely with my children. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending these classes. Enabling your children to swim is one of the most important things you can do. Doing it through KOI with Justyna is one of the best ways you can do it. Thanks for everything Justyna.

My favourite part of swimming is being deep under water so that I can feel the bottom of the pool. I also like breast stroke because it feels nice having to pull yourself up. I really enjoy swimming and I have learnt a lot.
