# East Midlands Swimming Academy Limited
East Midlands Swimming Academy (EMSA) is a specialist swimming instruction provider established in 1998 by Sally Brooks, a former competitive swimmer and lifesaving competitor. Based in Nottingham, EMSA operates private swimming pools across multiple locations including Shirebrook, Derby, Castle Donington, Ravenshead, Alfreton, West Bridgford, Newark, Worksop, and areas throughout Leicestershire and Lincolnshire.
The academy serves families from infants through to competitive swimmers, with particular expertise in early childhood water education. EMSA Babies caters specifically to the youngest learners from six weeks old, whilst their broader programmes support pre-school children through to those pursuing competitive swimming pathways. This comprehensive age range allows families to develop swimming skills progressively within a familiar environment.
What distinguishes EMSA is their founder's deep personal commitment to swimming safety and development, combined with access to private pool facilities that enable controlled, quality instruction. The emphasis on water safety is central to their offering, with dedicated content explaining how they keep children safe in the water. Their "Swim Tree" progression system provides clear developmental milestones for learners.
EMSA recognises swimming as both a critical life skill and excellent low-impact exercise that develops physical coordination, muscular strength, and cardiovascular health. By offering lessons across numerous East Midlands locations rather than a single venue, they've made quality swimming instruction accessible to a wide regional audience. Their longevity—operating successfully for over 25 years—demonstrates sustained parental trust and proven instructional quality.
