1-to-1 Swimming Coaching
at Your Hertfordshire Pool.

Potters Bar and Brookmans Park sit on the Hertfordshire side of the M25, with excellent rail connections to King's Cross and a high concentration of large detached properties with private pools set into generous garden plots. Brookmans Park in particular — built in the 1920s on the grounds of two former country estates, Brookmans and Gobions — features substantial homes among woodland and lake settings. Brian coaches across both areas regularly.

Every session is 60 minutes, fully 1-to-1, and built around the swimmer in front of him. The lesson plan follows the individual — not a fixed syllabus, not a group average. Whether that's a child working on water confidence, an adult learning to swim for the first time, or a teenager improving stroke technique, the coaching adapts to them.

Children's swimming lessons, Potters Bar & Brookmans Park

The same coach every session, a plan that builds consistently, and full individual attention for the entire 60 minutes. No rotating teachers, no shared lanes, no waiting.

Adult swimming lessons at your home pool

Learning or improving as an adult is always easier in a private pool. No audience, no public lanes — just expert coaching at your own pace in your own setting.

Nervous swimmers & SEN learners

Brian has 25+ years of experience with water-anxious adults and SEN children. The calm, private pool environment in Potters Bar or Brookmans Park is exactly what these swimmers need.

Built Around the Swimmer —
Not a Fixed Programme.

60Minutes
per session

Every session at your Potters Bar or Brookmans Park pool is built from scratch around your swimmer. Brian assesses where they are at the start of the first lesson and adjusts the plan each time — progressing at exactly the right pace for the individual, never faster and never slower.

Water confidence & breath control

Entry, floating, buoyancy and breathing rhythm — the foundation of all swimming. Brian takes as long as needed before introducing any stroke technique.

Stroke technique — front crawl, breaststroke & backstroke

Each stroke built correctly from the beginning, with bad habits corrected before they become embedded. Focused 1-to-1 coaching is the only reliable way to achieve this.

Progression, turns & stamina

For more confident swimmers — efficiency, race turns, endurance and open water awareness. Brian coaches recreational and competitive swimmers across EN6, AL9 and surrounding Hertfordshire postcodes.

Brookmans Park and Potters Bar are part of the same Hertfordshire belt as Radlett and Arkley — large properties, private pools, families who take swimming seriously. I coach regularly across this area and the sessions are always the same: 60 minutes of individual, focused coaching. No shortcuts.

Brian FitzGerald — Swimming Class UK

Swimming Lessons Across
EN6, AL9 & Surrounding Herts.

Brian covers the full EN6 and AL9 postcode area, from Potters Bar itself — with its East Coast Main Line station and its roads running out towards Northaw and Cuffley — through Brookmans Park and the North Mymms parish. Homes in the grid of Brookmans Park's residential roads, built among the woodland and lakes of the old Gobions estate, are all within his regular route. The Folly Arch, a Grade II* listed landmark visible from much of the village, and the nearby Gobions Wood nature reserve mark the outer edges of the area.

Brian also covers Bell Bar and Welham Green to the north, Northaw and Cuffley to the east, and the borders of South Mimms and Hatfield. Families in Brookmans Park with pools on Foxes Lane, Moffats Lane, Bradmore Way and the surrounding roads are all within range. Brookmans Park station is on the Thameslink line; Potters Bar on the Great Northern — Brian fits sessions around commuter schedules.
