Across Yorkshire

Private Coaching,
Yorkshire-Wide.

Harrogate — the spa town of the Stray, the Montpellier Quarter and Valley Gardens — anchors one of the most affluent corners of the North, alongside Ilkley on the edge of Wharfedale and the racing town of Wetherby. Substantial Victorian and Edwardian houses across the area frequently hold an indoor or covered garden pool.

It is the northern equivalent of the Home Counties' wealthiest towns — a settled, professional community that values quality and privacy. For families here, a vetted coach who comes to the house for one-to-one lessons is a natural fit, year-round, in a heated indoor pool.

As our Yorkshire coach network opens, every SwimFitz coach is personally vetted by founder Brian FitzGerald and held to the same standard: Enhanced DBS, recognised teaching qualifications, first-aid certified and fully insured, with one accountable point of contact throughout.
