Our intensive swimming lessons also known as swimming crash courses, are daily 30-minute or 60-minute lessons offered during weekdays-Monday to Friday- during long school holidays like summer holidays, Easter and half-terms.
We offer swimming crash courses over school holidays when all schools break like Easter and summer.
An intensive course normally is a 5-Day back-to-back lessons.
Our intensive swimming courses are great solution for busy people. Either children who are too busy during school term time and cannot do termly lessons or adults who cannot commit to a block of 10-12 weekly lessons.
Our school holidays courses run on weekdays in the morning times and we have been running them at different pools;
Wimbledon High School in Wimbledon and Wimbledon College in Wimbledon Village and Aspire centre in Southfields in Wandsworth, Southwest London.
Swimming courses are excellent to keep active and catch up quickly with swimming specially just before going away for holidays by beach or pool.
In a 5-Day course, there is one lesson each day of the weekdays; from Monday to Friday.
Each lesson normally is 30 minutes, however, you offer the option of booking 60-mins lessons.
Bookings for a course means you are booking 5 lessons.
How we teach lessons in our intensive courses is similar to our weekly lessons. But, in each 5-Day course, swimmers get 5 back-to-back private (1:1) or semi-private lessons (1:2 and 1:3).
Intensive swimming courses are more effective than once a week (weekly) specially for boosting water confidence for nervous learners regardless of age. They are also very effective for technique and polishing strokes.
A 5-Day course could be a great introduction to swimming for a beginners or a fantastic technique building course for someone who knows how to swim but strokes need improving.
For those who feel they are really squeezed with time, an intensive swimimg course gives them a chance to have 5 lessons in one week or 10 lessons in two weeks or 15 in three weeks.
It means you can get almost a school-term worth of weekly swimming lessons in two weeks.
So you can be really be efficient with your time.
So if you are living in southwest London and looking for swimming crash courses near you, don’t look any further.

A good swim school with professional staff
My girls have been going to Blue Wave Swim School for over 2 years, they have been looking forward to each lesson and keep practicing the swimming tricks even in a bath. All teachers and an owner of the school has been friendly, very professional. They found unique approach and made kids happy, but most importantly show them how to swim and have fun. Thank you very much from our family to Blue Wave Swim School.

Easter 2021 Crash Course
Various lockdowns have held back my daughter’s swimming development so we opted for a crash 4 day course over Easter and she has come away from it much more confident and with a recognisable stroke as opposed to doggy paddle!

Although I have only attended two lessons, Marjan’s bubbly personality makes you feel instantly at ease. During the lessons, the pool was not very busy which is a good thing (as opposed to public pools) for those who are anxious.
I would strongly recommend to adults who have experienced trauma with water at a certain time in their lives.

My son has been going to swimming lessons at Blue Wave in Wimbledon for a few years now and thoroughly enjoys it. The teaching is great and the lessons well run. Helps to prepare him for when we finally get to go on holiday again!

My son went to improve his swimming technique and found his instructor very helpful, very kind and patient. The school itself is very welcoming and feels safe for all the children who go there. I would highly recommend it.

Excellent results
My son is 4 years-old and we were looking for weekend swimming classes in a nice environment that could bring good results. After some research we chose Blue Wave Swim. Our son has been having private lessons since the end of 2018 and he is progressing very well. We believe the professionalism of the team, the clean and tidy infrastructure, and the good care of the management are contributing for his development and confidence in the water. Thank you very much Blue Wave Swim!

Superb Swimming School in Wimbledon
My daughter, who is now 7 years old, started with blue wave two years back and we have been very happy with her progress at the school. Initially we started with group lessons but once she got comfortable in water we moved her to semi private lessons, which made a lot of difference in her ability to learn swimming. As part of the smaller group she is better bonded with other children in the group and gets more attention from the swimming instructor, which is helping her advance her swimming skills. During her 2 years with blue wave, swimming instructors for my daughter have changed and while continuity in learning was maintained, I think this could have been managed better. Needless to say, she still goes and enjoys her time here and looks forward to her class every week. Overall we are very pleased with Blue Wave and would recommend them without any hesitation.

Highly recommend this swimming school. My daughter has been attending since she was 1 years old and she loves it. The teachers are very good with children and my daughter, who is now 4 years old is very confident in the water.
