# Got2Swim
Got2Swim is a specialist swim school operating across the Chilterns and Kings Langley, serving children and swimmers of all abilities who want to develop genuine swimming proficiency. Founded in 2010 by Bruce Snodgrass, a former South African national swimmer and Olympic-medal-winning coach, the school takes a distinctly different approach to conventional swimming instruction.
The business distinguishes itself through smaller class sizes, where qualified instructors teach from within the water at the swimmers' eye level. This positioning allows for more personalised attention and immediate feedback. Rather than following standard teaching methods, Got2Swim employs specialised drills, techniques and equipment tailored to individual learners, building confidence whilst helping each swimmer progress at their own pace. The core philosophy emphasises correct technique from day one.
All instructors hold nationally recognised qualifications and bring substantial coaching and competitive swimming experience. The school's credibility is further enhanced by its patron, Jonty Skinner—a world-class technical advisor to British Swimming with an exceptional track record of coaching swimmers to 18 Olympic gold medals combined.
Got2Swim appeals to parents seeking quality swim education beyond standard group lessons, as well as swimmers looking to improve technique or progress toward competitive swimming. The school serves children from complete beginners through to those with competitive aspirations, offering an evidence-based alternative to mass-market swim instruction.
