KIJIJI Swim — using the Swahili word for village — is a community swimming school based in London for all ages and abilities.
We believe that everyone has the potential to learn to swim, but being able to achieve this lies on a safe environment and high-quality swimming lessons. Our swim school is built on the values of community, support, and a commitment to excellence in swimming technique.
We set ourselves apart from standard swim schools with a strong focus on on the fundamentals of swimming. You won’t see teachers out of the water, nor an overuse of flotation aids in our lessons — we work from the ground up, ensuring that our students build strong, proper technique, whether they're learning the basics or refining their skills.
Our expert instructors are in the water providing both support and demonstrations, and give individualised attention to help each swimmer progress at their own pace.
We understand that many of our students may have experienced fear, frustration, or lack of progress at other swim schools. That's why our priority is to build confidence in the water and help our students overcome any fears or barriers they may have.
We work with patience and care (and fun too!), creating an environment where learning is not only effective but enjoyable.
