Meet the Team

Darren –  I am a Level 2 swimming teacher who has taught both group and private lessons for a number of years. A competitive swimmer in my younger days I took this passion into teaching after I finished my BSc Sports Science degree at Northumbria University. After teaching at numerous leisure centres, I decided to start my own swim academy to design and teach the schemes of work I feel are best suited to enhancing the learning of young and improving swimmers.
