About Swim Steps and our Swimming Lessons

Hello and welcome to our friendly swim school, Swim Steps!

I’m Rebecca, the proud owner of Swim Steps and would like to share our journey with you all…

What started as a small dream, we opened in January 2019 with just one pool in Hindley and only a few swimmers and since then have expanded across 3 pools in Bolton and Whitefield. Back then, it was just myself teaching every lesson, pouring my heart into helping each child feel confident in the water. Today, I’m lucky to have a team of amazing staff members, all as passionate about teaching as I am. We just love to see the progression from a nervous swimmer to a happy swimmer. We know we are doing something right when the children are loving their lessons with us all whilst learning a life skill. 

Swimming Lesson Options

Group Swimming Lessons

Group swim lessons are perfect for those who enjoy learning in a social and supportive environment. With small class sizes, each participant receives personalised instruction while benefiting from the motivation of others. These lessons cater to various skill levels and are designed to improve swimming technique, build water confidence, and have fun in the process. We accept swimmers from the age of 3 for this type of lesson.

Private Swimming Lessons

Private swim lessons offer one-on-one instruction tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Whether you’re a beginner looking to master the basics or an experienced swimmer aiming to refine your technique, these lessons provide focused, individualised attention and a more personalised approach. We accept swimmers from the age of 3 for this type of lesson.

Adult & Child Lessons

These lessons are designed for parents to help assist their child in learning to swim in a comfortable and fun environment. The adult and child lessons encourage bonding while teaching essential water safety skills and swimming techniques. It’s a great way for families to share an experience, while children build confidence in the water under the supervision of their parent. We accept swimmers from the age of 18 months old for this type of lesson.

Family Swimming Hire

Family hire offers the unique opportunity to book a private session for your entire family. Whether you’re looking to practice swimming together, receive specialised lessons, or simply enjoy quality time in the pool, this option allows families to enjoy exclusive use of the pool. Family hire can be customised to meet the needs of swimmers of all ages and skill levels, providing a fun and educational experience for everyone. We accept swimmers from the age of 18 months old for this type of lesson.

Swim Steps Swim School

Our focus has always been to make swimming lessons accessible to as many families as possible. We know how important it is for children to feel safe and confident in the water, and we’re committed to keeping our prices affordable so that private lessons are within reach for as many people as possible. More than just teaching strokes, we aim to help children grow into competent, happy swimmers who are comfortable around water for life by focusing on good technique.

In 2024, we took a big step and opened Swim Steps Training Academy—a place where we can share everything we’ve learned with others and grow our team of fantastic instructors. It’s a huge milestone for us, and it’s now all about continuing to provide the best possible experience for our swimmers and families.
