Recently started my swimming journey and I must say Stefano does really know what he is doing and the best at it!i recently hit a milestone and “Not in a million years I’d think I can swim a length of a lane without stopping!” Can’t wait for my future lessons and see my progress!

Stefano is an incredible swimming instructor and I’d highly recommend him, whatever your level of swimming – whether you’re a beginner or wasn’t to improve your technique. He is incredibly patient and encouraging. He also helped me get over my (irrational) fear of turning my head in the water. Highly recommend!

I couldn’t recommend Stefano as a swimming instructor more: I started my journey in swimming as an adult at 35, with great fear of water and 0 swimming knowledge with a different swimming academy. I have made some progress with that venue however it wasn’t until i started my classes with Stefano that I finally started to feel more at ease in the water and slowly but securely, swim. Stefano’s techniques and knowledge of the psychology behind the fear in… read more water have made a difference. He is using adequate aquatic techniques, tailored to each person. What I always found surprising is how the beginning of a new exercise always has a purpose, and that is the great contribution to overcoming fear: constantly proving with logical aquatic exercises that it s all a mind game. He has brought me from a place of fear of water to finding a new passion with patience, passion, talent, humour and perseverance. What I thought it was impossible has become one of my best adult accomplishments with Stefano’s help.

I decided to take some lessons to learn front crawl, already able to swim but only head up breast stroke. Stefano was fantastic, very encouraging and really good at explaining. I feel I have some good building blocks to continue to practice with and very glad I did the sessions – highly recommended

I started swimming lessons at the tender age of 55 just after this years mothers day in April. Stefano was my instructor who was amazing and taught me how to swim just as he promised in 10lessons. His patience and clarity on instruction taught me how to coordinate breathing with my movements and gain confidence in keeping my head below the surface level of water. Thank you Stefano for making me accomplish my childhood dream which I failed multiple… read more times during my lifetime. I will go on enjoying swimming while thanking you every time I enjoy my moments in water specially the sea. You were the most amazing teacher I ever had . Hoping to see you again soon .

Hands down the best investment I’ve made this year -I learned how to swim in less than five lessons and have truly never felt so at ease in water ever in my life. Felt so grateful and lucky to have come across the lovely instructor Stefano!!!

I wholeheartedly recommend my swimming personal trainer, Stefano. He created a safe, encouraging environment that helped me overcome a lifelong fear of swimming. His patience and expertise made all the difference as he worked at my pace, never pushing but always empowering. His approach restored trust in my body and confidence in myself. Today, I feel stronger in the water and more in control of my personal growth. Stefano is not just a swimming instructor — he is a trusted… read more partner in recovery and development.

I just want to say a huge thank you to Stefano for teaching me how to swim! 🩵 When I first started, I had no experience at all, but thanks to his patience, encouragement, and clear guidance, I’ve made amazing progress. I recently passed my cabin crew swimming exam, and I’m so proud — I couldn’t have done it without him! Stefano is not only a fantastic instructor but also genuinely supportive, which made every lesson enjoyable and motivating. I truly… read more appreciate everything he’s done for me.

I have been trying to learn to swim and overcome my fear of the water as an adult. Before Atomic Swimming, I tried various different venues and online videos to learn, and had limited success. In general I always used to feel tired within a few laps (especially with the front-crawl) and still had a deep fear of the water. Within a few sessions with Stefano I can now confidently swim continuous front-crawl laps for 45 minutes and have learnt to… read more tread water. The progress has been really incredible and the ultimate reason for it is Stefano’s patience, ability to clearly explain things and most importantly his unique style to teaching swimming which relies on an understanding of the water and the physics of buoyancy and how to use it to be effective swimmers. His sessions build up layer by layer a strong foundation that is based on understanding the movement required for different strokes. That really helps things click into place and helped me develop an intuition for swimming that I never had before. This is arguably the best swimming coach you will find in London! Definitely give it a go!

Stefano is a brilliant teacher. He is really observant and supportive and makes classes really enjoyable.

Stefano is an amazing coach! I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made within 20 lessons with him. He is very accommodating and understanding. I feel soo confident in the water now and proud of the techniques I’ve developed. I definitely recommend

Stefano listens to what it is you are after from the session and tailors the session to help you reach those targets

I would highly recommend Stefano as a personal trainer for his professionalism and caring coaching style. I specifically appreciated his ability to tailor workouts to my individual needs, helping me build confidence and improve my fitness levels. I have noted significant improvements in strength, posture, and overall well-being after only 10 sessions. Stefano’s motivational approach encouraged me to push my limits while ensuring a supportive environment, making sessions enjoyable and effective.

Really great swimming lesson experience with Stefano. I wanted to get my front crawl up to scratch for some small triathlons. Actually this involved re-learning almost every aspect of the stroke. Instead of beating the water to a foam while quickly running out of breath and getting exhausted, I now have moments where I’m really gliding through the water feeling as relaxed as if I were walking… only moments mind you – it’s a complex stroke and everything can be… read more improved. Stefano is a patient and supportive teacher and breaks things down into manageable adjustments week by week, and retains a focus on what you want to achieve. The preparation than goes into each session and the slow build-up of skills is only really apparent at the end. His flexible approach to payments and bookings is also reassuring and reflects his deserved confidence that you’ll book again next time. Thank you Stefano.

HERNIATED DISC / BACK PAIN sufferers: I was admitted to hospital for a week; unable to walk etc. due to a seriously herniated disc. To avoid surgery, I started physio (once I was able to stand unaided) and once I was able to walk for a few minutes, I started aqua rehabilitation with Stefano. 2 months in and I am now swimming front crawl! Thank you Stefano.

Stefano is a great instructor. I really enjoy my weekly session with him and can feel that I am making huge progress. He gives detailed feedback and lessons are tailored to your needs. Couldn’t recommend enough ! I used to hate water/swimning pool, and now I can’t wait for the next lesson.
September 24, 2024
Stefano is an amazing teacher and very professional. He is very knowledgable and answered all questions I had. I could feel a massive difference in my swimming after only a few sessions would highly recommend!
July 20, 2024
In preparation for my triathlon I wanted to learn the proper technique of the front crawl. Not only am I now able to swim at least 1k without breaks and fatiguing, I‘ve also managed to improve my speed with the help of Stefano. The swimming sessions were always knowledgeable and enjoyable as Stefano always explained the reasoning behind a certain move which helped me get more in tune with my body snd gain a better feel for the water.

Started out this year with the goal of learning to swim. They really took care of me and helped me achieve that goal. Highly recommend

Due to an unfortunate event in my childhood I never learned to swim as a child as I was scared of the water. Stefano helped me overcome my phobia and now I can happily say I enjoy swimming head down even more than head up and I consider learning to swim as an adult my biggest ever achievement, all thanks to the knowledge and immeasurable patience of Stefano!

Stefano is a great swimming instructor. He has the ability to break down each stroke to its basic movement, so that no matter what your level is, you can immediately start making progress. He is a great guy and fun to work with. I wish I had stayed longer in London so that I could have worked with him longer. You will not be disapponted.
October 19, 2023
Stefano is an amazing coach, I had a few lessons starting as a beginner so far intending to have many more. He is very thorough on every technique when teaching, with only a few sessions I can already swim a little front and back. I would highly recommend Stefano.
September 19, 2023
I have recently completed a course of lessons with Stefano to improve my front crawl technique and it has to be one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Stefano’s experience clearly shines through as he has a wealth of great drills,… read more useful tips and easy to understand analogies to refine your stroke. He is very attentive and gives great constructive feedback and ensures the session is productive right from the start to the finish. By the end of my first set of lessons, I was swimming the same distance in one third of the time with a technique that felt smoother and with less physical exertion. My endurance has also improved significantly and I’m able to swim greater distances than before. Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned swimmer, Stefano will help you achieve your swimming goals. Stefano has reignited my passion for swimming. There is more that I want to learn and I’m delighted to be continuing this journey with him.

I can’t thank Stefano enough for helping me to overcome my fear of water. He has supported and guided me throughout this challenging journey from not being able to enter the swimming pool to now entering and swimming with confidence.

I was never a confident swimmer and I always found myself purposely avoiding swimming in depths where I could not physically stand. I decided to overcome this fear of swimming in deeper depths so that I could enjoy swimming confidently in the sea and swimming pool especially socially with my friends. Stefano provided me with the techniques (from breathing to movement) to build up my skills and confidence. He supported and encouraged me throughout and was dedicated and focussed during… read more each lesson to help me achieve my goal. Thank you Stefano once again for helping me become a confident swimmer!

They say that the best things in life are unexpected. As I reflect on my year long relationship with Stefano, it feels strange reminding myself that I only met him by chance at my local club. Since then, I’ve had several training sessions with him. I believe practice and perseverance are essential for success in any sport, but it manifests only when one truly fulfils their potential. Stefano is able to deliver precisely this during his sessions and I… read more have always had the feeling of immediate progress afterwards, which I can then refine further on my own.

Stefano has been an incredibly wise and patient swimming teacher – especially for very nervous first timers. He understands your fears and learning style – and then is very methodical about finding ways to make you feel relaxed and progress you at a pace that works for you. I’ve gone from not being able to put my head underwater at all – to now gliding around on my front and back – and enjoying the water. … read more There’s still more to learn with him – but I’m grateful to Stefano for all his support as I learn this valuable new life skill. Don’t put it off any longer – give him a call today!
