Dolphin Swimming Academy

Dolphin Swimming Academy At Dolphin Swimming Academy we provide swimming lessons to children from age 3 upwards. We offer small class sizes (max 6 children per class).

Dolphin Swimming Academy is a family run swim school operated by a husband and wife team Richard and Charlotte Green, with the support of our amazing team of swimming instructors. As parents of a 4 year old little girl who loves the water we understand the importance of children learning to swim, by making sure that they learn through having fun in the water. At our swim school we provide swimming

lessons to children of all ages and abilities. Our aim is not just to get the children swimming, we want children to enjoy each lesson, have fun and love being in the water. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me and if you would like to book a place for your child onto any of my classes please give me a call or drop me an email.

Today we collected the keys to our new home! 🔑💙

What started as an idea has become a reality, and we couldn’t be more excited. There is still plenty of hard work ahead, but seeing our new swim school for the first time with the keys in our hands made it all feel real.

Over the next few weeks we’ll be transforming this space into somewhere hundreds of children will learn a life-saving skill, build confidence and make amazing memories.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us so far. We can’t wait to welcome you through these doors very soon!

The countdown to opening begins… 🏊‍♂️✨

A lot of schools are closing early, or closing entirely over the next couple of days, and you and / or your children may be looking to cool off in your local lake or river

⚠️ Just remember the water safety code: if you get into trouble, stay calm, float on your back and call for help.

Cold water shock can happen to anyone, even on a warm day. Your instinct might be to panic, but the best thing you can do is float.

🛟 Tilt your head back and keep your airway clear
🫁 Relax and focus on your breathing
🌊 Spread your arms and legs to stay balanced
🤲 Gently move your hands if needed
📞 Once calm, signal for help or swim to safety

If someone else is in trouble, don’t go in. Throw them something that floats.
