We are Swim Teacher Training Academy, founded by Abbey through her passion for swimming teaching, driven by the want for every child (and adult) to learn an important life-saving skill.

Welcome to our happy corner of the leisure industry. We hand pick expert tutors who will guide you through your course and provide support every step of the way. We make our courses fun, interactive and engaging to give you the best experience possible.

Whether you’re an experienced swimmer looking to take the next steps, or completely new to the industry and looking for a change, we are here to help you become the next generation of fantastic swimming teachers, ultimately saving lives through drowning prevention. With Swim Teacher Training Academy you get expert tutors, friendly faces, and support every step of the way - no ‘ask’ is too big for us!

Our courses run mainly in Preston (Lancashire), where Abbey is originally from and where she likes to spend lots of time with the wonderful swim schools she worked at. We also run a small number of courses each year in Whitstable (Kent), where Abbey now lives and runs her own swim school!
