1-to-1 Swimming Coaching
at Your Elstree Pool.
Our coaches work at private pools across Elstree and the wider WD6 area regularly. The homes around Allum Lane, Barnet Lane and the roads climbing toward Elstree Hill often have private pools — many of them beautiful, and most of them barely used. If you have a pool in Elstree, a coach comes to it. For lessons at our 25m venue pool instead, see swimming coaching in Borehamwood.
Every session is 60 minutes, entirely 1-to-1, and built around the individual swimmer. Whether your child needs to develop water confidence from scratch, you're an adult learning to swim properly for the first time, or a teenager wants to clean up their front crawl — the lesson follows the person, not a fixed programme.
Consistent 1-to-1 coaching with the same expert teacher every session. No rotating instructors, no lane-sharing, no waiting — just focused progress in your own pool.
Learn to swim properly for the first time, improve your technique, or rebuild water confidence — entirely at your pace and entirely in private.
The calm, private setting of a home pool removes the anxiety that public leisure centres create. Our patient approach has helped swimmers of all ages overcome fear of water.
60 Minutes. Your Pool.
Your Swimmer's Plan.
per session
Every session at your Elstree pool is built around the swimmer in front of your coach — not a fixed syllabus, not a group curriculum. The lesson progresses at whatever pace is right, with every element chosen to build on the last visit.
Water confidence & breath control
The foundation of all swimming — entry, floating, buoyancy and controlled breathing. Your coach takes exactly as long as needed here before moving forward.
Stroke technique — built correctly
Front crawl, breaststroke, backstroke — developed from the ground up with technique corrected before poor habits can embed. No shortcuts.
Progression, turns & endurance
For stronger swimmers — efficiency, flip turns, stamina and open water awareness. Our coaches teach recreational families and competitive swimmers alike across WD6.
Elstree is right on our doorstep — we coach at the 25m pool in Borehamwood and travel to home pools all around WD6. The village end of Elstree, around Allum Lane and Barnet Lane, has some lovely private pools. Coaching someone at home means we can tailor the whole session to them, in water they already feel safe in.
Brian FitzGerald, founder — Swimming Class UKSwimming Lessons Across WD6 & Beyond.
Our coaches work at pools across the full WD6 area — from Elstree village along the High Street and Allum Lane, across to Borehamwood, and out toward Aldenham and Radlett. Roads around Barnet Lane, Elstree Hill and Deacons Hill are all within our regular route.
Aldenham Reservoir, Aldenham Country Park and the Elstree film studios sit at the edges of the area, and our coaches cover pools throughout. Our coaches also cover neighbouring Bushey (WD23), Radlett (WD7) and Arkley (EN5). If you're in WD6 or nearby and you have a pool, the conversation is always worth having.
Sessions fit around your schedule — early mornings, evenings and weekends all available. Not sure if your road is covered? take the 30-second quiz — he replies quickly and there's no obligation.

Families We've Coached in WD6
My daughter has been swimming with Brian in Spellbrook for a month. He keeps learning fun. Every lesson recaps on previous activities along with new skills and activities. Your coach is calm and explains in age appropriate language.
Great classes - our daughter made more progress in a term here than with all of my previous years of amateurish attempts to teach her.
My husband and me are so happy with Brian, he is a very professional swimming teacher. Also the private pool is really amazing that he is teaching us there. I highly recommend him to everyone.
