Reviews
What swimmers and parents say
Brenday DhlaminiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Learning how to swim as an adult came with so many mental challenges — the fear of drowning, panic, and embarrassment. But guess what? All my fears gradually disappeared after joining Bubbly Glide. My relationship with water became more enjoyable and less frustrating simply because of the amazing team that welcomed me without ever judging my inability to swim. From day one, I felt safe, comfortable, and supported. The patience of the instructors is truly out of this world. I must say, I was handled like a big baby — from learning how to breathe properly to balancing my body in the water. Thank you, Bubbly Glide, for making this journey such a beautiful and empowering experience. Gugulethu MasinaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Luleka RighteousTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It has been quite a journey! Thank you so much bubbly glide for being so welcoming and warm. It made everything else easy like building trust with me when I started swimming - was so scared and anxious. However, I am typing this message with a big smile on my face today. My swimming skills has improved and I am super proud of myself and thankful to my instructor, Thuli. Thanks for showing me the way and reminding us that we don’t need to be perfect. Just need to keep going if nothing hectic happened like water getting in my nose - correct mistakes as we go. The swimming classes has been therapeutic to me because of my instructors - they seem to know what to say at every moment. Moreover the pool is always heated and has amazing facilities like changing rooms, bathrooms and parking. All in all, it is an amazing experience! Thank you so much to the team including, Jabu which is also an amazing instructor and great human being. Your hard work is really changing our lives!
