Parent Reviews
We’ve been swimming with Funkey Fitness for 4 years and have really valued the quality of the instructors and the small sizes of the swimming classes in order that my children can get the most out of their lesson.

I tried to teach my children how to swim but neither of them would listen or take me seriously. Funkey Fitness taught them both within a few months! My son was extremely nervous on his first lesson, but funkey fitness were so patient with him and it didn't take long for him to settle in and now hes super confident. I highly recommended this company!

Fantastic group of swimming instructors, particularly Harrison who teaches my 6 year old son. He loves going to his lessons and has so much fun whilst learning. Thank you!

Amazing team and very observant with individual kids skills and technique. My 4 year old son cried on his first lesson but after encouragement from the instructor he was very confident and also excited to go again on his second lesson with success without no tears.

My eldest son learnt and my youngest is still learning with FunkeyFitness! They are brilliant! The confidence my 10 year old has achieved is amazing. The pool & facilities are clean, staff are friendly & approachable & most of all the kids are learning a life lesson while having fun! You will not be disappointed. Keep up the good work Jaclyn & Co !
Nervous & Beginner Swimmers

My little boy started today (he previously moaned like hell about going to lessons where he was before) he was made to feel so welcome by Jaclyn as he was a little nervous. His swim teacher Joanne was so brilliant, she made him feel really at ease straight away and he really loved his lesson (& said she’s really funny!) he was like a different kid in the water with Joanne, it was great. He came out saying how much he enjoyed it, got home and was telling his dad all about it.
I’m so pleased! Thanks Joanne & funkey fitness. Highly recommend!!

Excellent service. My Granddaughter loves her swimming lessons. The instructors are fantastic. She's quite a nervous little girl, but always comes out of her class smiling. Jaclyn and her Team are great and take a lot of care over their students. I would definitely recommend Funkey Fitness 100%

My daughter has attended lessons for a while now and since joining Funkey Fitness swimming lessons she has progressed beyond where I thought she would. She had been petrified of water, wouldn't wet her face and was stuck to a pool noodle. The teacher has built her confidence, at her speed and shown patience when she has been stubborn. I was excited to see her swimming unaided today. It has been a long process but I feel the progress will continue quicker now she's overcome this milestone. Thank you for all your support.

Funkey fitness swimming is fantastic. They really care about teaching children to be confident swimmers. My child was terrified of water on starting swimming lessons. The patience, support and care of Jaclyn and Emily meant she overcame her fears and is now a confident swimmer who loves her weekly lessons. We are now at the end of our swimming lesson journey with Funkey Fitness Swimming and I cannot recommend them enough!
SEND & Additional Needs
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
My 4 children have been swimming with Jaclyn and her team for many years, all her team are very warm and inviting for the children and work very hard with all the children to encourage them to reach their fill potential!
My youngest has additional needs and does 1:1 swimming lessons weekly, but Lauren has been an absolute angel with Lilah and has the absolute patience of a saint!
Thank you Jaclyn and all your team for helping my kiddos turn into confident swimmers!

All three if my children have been coming here since they were old enough to join. Their confidence in the water is great, the instructors getting in the water keeps them progressing. Great support for SEN children and small classes, which gets them constantly swimming and moving, not waiting around doing nothing. Definitely recommend this club!

Funkey Fitness has been teaching my daughter for 4 years and she really enjoys it. They have been really good with her extra needs and made the lessons interesting and fun, while still progressing through the stages.
