I selected SwimFin as the core aid when starting my swim school for many reasons - mainly for how clever and diverse it was. I find using SwimFin enables swimmers to progress quickly in a fun and enjoyable way. it allows them to use their body freely and can be used across all abilities and strokes. Advanced swimmers use the aid to perfect their strokes and our youngest use them as a fun flotation aid including our disabled swimmers. I couldn’t imagine teaching with anything else, the swim school would not be the same without it. Star product, high quality and fantastic service. Big Fish Little Fish Swimming Lessons.
