Top Swimming instructors in Southport, Australia

Did not meet our son's needs. Did not meet the standard you would expect from an Autism Swim instructor.

No bathroom facilities for special needs children. No ramp to get in out of pool only stairs, very hard if you are less mobile & have low muscle tone. You must swim in a cap & goggles, not always possible if you have sensory issues. Poor communication. Instructor spent lesson talking to another instructor & finished lesson 15minutes early. Being an Autism Swim Instructor I would expect more.

This swim school is by far the best we have been to on the Gold Coast! We have been to 4 other swim schools and they were all very much the same; same boring songs, same unenthusiastic teachers, same routines…Bree Swim is different. The level of engagement with the children is exemplary, no songs and the best part is that my son has improved beyond expectations. David is a skilled and dedicated teacher, the kids just love him. I highly recommend this swim school! A++

David of BreeSwim is a wonderful swim teacher, and is great with the kids in the pool. Our 7 year old son recently returned to swim classes with David, and the improvement we have seen has been amazing. Highly recommend David.

Best Swim teacher ever! As a toddler my child never wanted to be in the water with a teacher without me. David has taught my child independence and he really cares about a safe swim environment. He never takes his eyes of the children, teaches at a stepped level, keeps it at a relatable level to each child, teaches them to focus on what he is teaching and yet with all this makes the classes so much fun. I highly recommend David Bree @Breeswim and give him a 10 out of 10.

My daughter is becoming such a confident swimmer. Thank you Wendy!

Highly recommend David at Bree Swim! When our previous swim school closed, we tried several main-stream schools but struggled to find consistency with instructors or flexibility with programs. David is excellent at identifying what the kids need in developing technique and has the right balance of stretching them while making it fun and enjoyable. We have been with David for six months and I’m blown away with the progress our kids have made. I came across David from these reviews and if you’re not sure with how your kids are progressing, then give him a go - you won’t be disappointed!

David is a great teacher and it's a really fun class for my newborn, who went until he was about 6 months old.
David knows instinctively what to do, never pushes your baby too far and just gets a great balance between fun, learning and novelty in every class.
It was a highlight for my son and I going to these classes and they are very good value too!

It's a great teaching space. The swim instructors are highly trained and amazing. Highly recommend it. It's one on one with the kids.

My little boys (1 and 3) love swimming thanks to this swimming school. They are great with children.

David's adult learn to swim classes are great. I never learned as a child so felt quite nervous of swimming and going in pools, especially putting my face under the water! David has been really supportive and has a great teaching style with the right amount of humour to make it fun. I'm now happily swimming and looking forward to the next group of adult swimming lessons with Breeswim to keep learning. 100% recommend.

Tried calling, but got no returns.

My daughter is 4 and a half and has been swimming with David since she was 5 months old. David is an incredible teacher and he places an emphasis on guiding the parents to be a big part of developing their own child’s skills in the water. My daughter can’t wait to get to swimming every week, he makes it fun while teaching them the most invaluable of skills. David is not about singing nursery rhymes in the pool, he teaches water confidence and you can see amazing results from such a young age. I have recommended Breewswim to so many people – and couldn’t rate David highly enough. The kids love to be taught from him and he has a great nature with kids of all ages. I wouldn’t look past David and Breeswim to develop your precious little one’s confidence and skills in the pool.

Our two boys aged 2 and 5 have been taught by David for 3 years. When we joined BreeSwim we had a restless bored two old who, along with his father was frustrated at the routine sing song lessons on offer at most other schools. Progress in skill development had been non-existent for 9 months.

The first lesson with David saw our son (and his dad) re-engage with swimming lessons, he absolutely loved it. By Week 5 we had seen more progress in my son's swimming and engagement in lessons then we'd seen in the previous 9 months.

David doesn't just focus on teaching your child, but also coaches the parents on the techniques and reasons behind each activity and how to identify when the child is ready to move to the next step and what that is - meaning you can confidently practice at other times in a pool to build up your child's confidence and skills.

When our youngest was old enough he began lessons with David and his progress and enjoyment in the pool is amazing. David's style, technique and rapport with the kids means both our kids are excited to go swimming every week. Every lesson is tailored to build upon the current skill level of the children. He makes the lessons fun but at the same time is always challenging them by introducing new skills to learn - they are never bored and importantly they never get discouraged.

I can wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who is serious about ensuring their child gets the most out of water safety and swimming lessons.

What a great swim school! My little boy was very nervous at first, they were so patient with him and now he's a confident little swimmer. My daughter attends now, very family oriented. I recommend to all of my friends.
