Lessons in Ely.
SwimFitz is bringing private one-to-one coaching to Ely and the villages around the cathedral city. Vetted local coaches, held to the standard our London families have trusted for years. Register your interest and we'll match your coach.
We Come to You
Covering Ely & the Villages
SwimFitz is opening across Ely — the cathedral side, Cherry Hill and the riverside — and out to Stuntney, Little Downham, Witchford, Haddenham and Sutton. If you have a private pool, indoor or outdoor, a vetted local coach can come to you.
The larger period houses in the city and the substantial farmhouses and barn conversions across the surrounding fen villages frequently hold an indoor or garden pool. In a quiet cathedral city within reach of Cambridge, in-home one-to-one coaching is an easy fit.

Ely in Depth
Ely
In Detail.
Ely and the CB7 catchment is a cathedral city set above the fens, ringed by Stuntney, Little Downham, Witchford and Haddenham. Its larger period houses and the surrounding farmhouses and barn conversions frequently hold indoor or garden pools, making in-home one-to-one coaching a natural fit as SwimFitz opens across Cambridgeshire.
Postcodes Covered
Streets and areas we routinely serve in this catchment: Ely Cathedral side, Cherry Hill, Stuntney, Little Downham, Witchford, Haddenham, Sutton and Soham borders.
Getting to you. Nearest stations and routes: Ely on Greater Anglia (the Cambridge and King's Lynn lines), a major junction with the A10 linking the fen villages. Our coaches travel with full equipment so the journey itself does not add to your cost.

Coaches You Can Trust
A Vetted Network, Not a Stranger.
SwimFitz is a vetted national network founded by Brian FitzGerald, who has coached swimmers for more than 30 years. Every coach we place in Cambridgeshire is hand-picked and held to the same standard Brian set in London: Enhanced DBS, recognised teaching qualifications, first-aid certified and fully insured.
You get a single, accountable point of contact and a coach matched to your family and your pool — never an anonymous name from a directory. As our network grows, that standard does not move.
What Clients Say
Trusted Across the Country.
“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.”
