We Come to You
Covering Chelsea & the Embankment
SwimFitz covers Chelsea between the King's Road and the river — Cheyne Walk, Chelsea Embankment, Chelsea Green, the World's End and Chelsea Harbour. Wherever there is a private pool — an indoor pool, a basement pool or a rooftop pool — a coach can be there.
The townhouses off the King's Road and along Cheyne Walk, and the apartments of Chelsea Harbour, hold some of the most discreet private pools in London, many below ground. One-to-one lessons at your own pool are the most private way for your family to learn.
Not sure if we cover you? Enquire anyway — if you have a private pool in or around Chelsea we will almost certainly reach you. Get in touch →

What Clients Say
Trusted by London Families.
“My daughter went from terrified of water to swimming confidently in just 8 lessons. Having a coach come to our pool made all the difference — no distractions, total focus. We can't recommend it highly enough.”
“As an adult who never learned to swim properly, I was nervous about starting. My coach was patient, professional and entirely effective. Within 6 sessions I was swimming lengths confidently — results I had honestly stopped believing were possible.”
