Hello. I am Gráinne McGrath!
Teaching swimming now for 20 years. I have found from been in the fitness industry and coaching gymnastics, it gives me the knowledge on how the body moves and focus on the fundamentals of streamlining and having neat and tidy swimmers. I am very passionate about the technique on every stroke I am still learning every day to help me with been a better coach
As my love for swimming and water grew. I decided to complete a life saving course. It was this course that opened up my eyes to teaching swimming. The life saving instructor noticed that without thinking about it I was helping and offering support to other participants on the course. He suggested that I should complete a training course in teaching swimming which I did and here I am today.

My Client's success stories!
I thought Id leave it to some of my clients to tell you how they feel about swimming with me.
Grainne is a brilliant swimming coach. She has patience in abundance (she needs every ounce of it teaching me!).
I had been getting lessons from others for years but I have made more progress under Grainne's instruction than anyone else. Best swimming coach I have come across.

The stuff my pair love is the cool fun things u say to them like kicking a football or ballerina ….. and Tadhg likes the story about lines on the bottom of the pool….. They love getting to jump in the hoops and the playtime in the baby pool after their lesson!
I personally love the swimming no joke Áine is constantly practising her breathing in the sink or doing her swimming strokes just running around on the road…… the confidence they’ve gained in the water is amazing…..learning through visualising and games, making it all fun makes the kids absorb everything much much easier.

Sean said its fun; he’s met new friends and feels much more comfortable in water. I can see a huge improvement with his coordination
Sean as you know struggles with that but it has brought him on massively and definitely his confidence has improved so much. I thought I’d never see the day that he’d be swimming well recommended and will be continuing on for further advancements. Great instructor

Should you wear Armbands

The question I get asked regarding armbands and swimming lessons. This is just my opinion. There are pros and cons to them. They are just for keeping your child safe in and around water while been supervised. I don’t believe in teaching any child to swim with armbands on. I feel it just delays the progress that the swimmer can make without the armbands.
