South Quay Plaza
Private one-to-one coaching in the residents’ 20-metre pool at 75 Marsh Wall, E14 9RW. For babies from six months, children, teenagers and adults at every level — booked around the building’s quiet hours.
The Pool
A Double-Height Pool Hall On The Quay
South Quay Plaza has a 20-metre indoor pool with a thermal suite with hot pool, set in The Quay Club, with sauna, steam and a thermal suite. It is for residents and their households — there is no club membership to buy and no outside booking system to work around, which is exactly why lessons here are straightforward once the building has approved the coach.
What We Teach
Lessons At South Quay Plaza
From 6 Months
Baby Swimming
Gentle water confidence with a parent in the pool. Warm, quiet water and no echoing crowd is about the best start a baby can get.
Ages 3+
Children’s Lessons
STA Learn to Swim awards at your child’s own pace, with a verbal progress update after every session and no waiting on the side.
All Abilities
Adult Lessons
Complete beginners through to experienced swimmers refining stroke. Total privacy, which is the reason most adults come to us at all.
Nervous Swimmers
Fear Of Water
A private pool removes almost every trigger at once — no spectators, no cold, no noise. It is the best room in London for this work.
Getting Started
Approved, Then Straight In The Water
We already teach in private residents’ pools across London, including The Broadway, Valencia Tower and Park Modern.
We are set up to work in South Quay Plaza’s 20-metre pool. Ask your concierge or managing agent to add us to the approved contractor list — our insurance certificate, enhanced DBS checks, coaching qualifications and a risk assessment written for your pool come straight over, usually the same day.
SwimFitz also coaches at private pools in houses across London.
What your managing agent receives
In The Water
What A Session Looks Like
Your coach signs in at the desk a few minutes early and is on the poolside when your swimmer arrives, so the session starts in the water rather than in a changing room. Lessons run 30 or 60 minutes depending on age and stamina, and the 20-metre length means there is enough water for continuous swimming without a turn every few strokes.
Because it is the same pool every week, at the same temperature, with the same walls to push off, progress is quicker than it tends to be for swimmers moving between public pools. Familiarity does a lot of the work, particularly for nervous swimmers and young children.
Every lesson includes
How It Works
Four Steps
Tell Us Your Building
Enquire and say you are a resident at South Quay Plaza. We confirm coverage and availability, usually within 24 hours.
We Clear It With Management
Insurance, enhanced DBS, qualifications and a risk assessment for your pool go to the concierge or managing agent.
Pick A Quiet Slot
We book the hours the leisure floor is least used, so no other resident is sharing the water with a lesson.
Your Coach Arrives Equipped
Everything for the session comes with them and leaves with them. Progress is logged in the SwimFitz app after every lesson.
Beyond The Pool
One Vetted Provider
Pilates and personal training
The same vetted-coach arrangement covers the studio as well as the pool.
