# AquaShan Swim School
AquaShan Swim School, located in Bookham, Leatherhead, is a specialist swimming instruction provider founded and led by Shannon Patterson, a fully qualified instructor with over 12 years of experience in the field. The school serves swimmers across all age groups and abilities, from babies as young as 12 months through to adults seeking to develop their skills or overcome water anxiety.
The school offers tailored programmes including baby swimming classes that provide gentle, nurturing introductions to water; pre-school classes for toddlers aged 12-36 months; structured swim academy lessons for school-age children; and dedicated adult swim lessons in a supportive, non-intimidating environment. Additionally, AquaShan provides specialised one-to-one tuition for adults and young people with additional needs (SEND).
What distinguishes AquaShan is Shannon's personalised approach informed by a decade of guiding individuals through genuine transformations in confidence and capability. Her credentials include full qualifications, First Aid and CPR training, and DBS clearance, ensuring professional standards of safety and care. The school's philosophy centres on building confidence and fostering a genuine love of swimming rather than purely technical instruction. Classes are designed to be engaging and fun whilst systematically developing essential water competency skills. Shannon's hands-on involvement and genuine passion for helping people achieve their swimming goals—whether overcoming fear, mastering technique, or simply enjoying the water—creates an environment where learners feel supported and motivated throughout their journey.
