Are you the owner of The Dolphin Swimming School?
Marianne Davies wants to give a warm welcome to the sports community from Dolphin Swimming School, a family-run swim school based in St Albans and Barnet. Having started the school in 1975, Marianne—a former competitive swimmer and PE teacher—has seen it grow into the Best Independent Swim School in Great Britain.
Marianne's swim school offers lessons every day of the week for children of all abilities. They keep the teacher-to-pupil ratio low to ensure each child gets the attention they need. From parent and baby/toddler groups to advanced swimmers honing competitive strokes, there's something for everyone.
The school operates a gently structured programme with 30-minute sessions aligned with school terms. All the teachers are DBS checked and qualified by Swim England, and they even get in the water with non-swimmers.
With three luxury venues, the school's Swim England Stages award scheme lets swimmers progress at their own pace. Children can join at any point in the term, and the rolling curriculum means everyone swims with others of similar ability. Parents with kids at different levels will find it convenient as the large venues accommodate all standards simultaneously.
Safety and quality are key at Marianne's school. With classes starting from as young as 6 weeks old, the small class sizes and on-hand swimming coordinator ensure everything runs smoothly.
But don't just rely on Marianne's word:
"Marianne and her instructors have such a passion for swimming; they just inspire the children. My twin boys had to be carried reluctantly to the water's edge on their first session. Two weeks later, they were laughing and enjoying learning to swim. A big thank you!" — Mr. H Foster, Enfield.
The school also offers crash courses, one-to-one sessions, and two-to-one sessions. Ongoing assessments help swimmers develop at their own pace and gain confidence.
