About Us
Soul Swim Pte Ltd. trading as ‘Swish Swimming’, is an established swim school in Singapore with a great set of long-term clients, and we have expanded! We have just built our own indoor/outdoor premium swim space at the central location of Loewen Gardens, Dempsey Hill – the luscious surroundings where a vibrant, children’s enrichment community is growing. We are the only swim school with both an indoor and outdoor temperature controlled pool in the upmarket Dempsey area, servicing the needs of clients in district 9,10 and 11 which encapsulates the areas of Dempsey Hill, Orchard Rd and Holland Village amongst others.
Swish Swimming prides itself breaking down fears and encouraging reluctant swimmers through a “fun” and motivational swim program. As the swim school grows we need like minded, lively instructors to come on board and help teach our fantastic clients.
In addition to the teaching side, Swish Swimming concentrates hard on finding the right “team mix” that we can have as much fun doing our jobs, as the kids do in their lessons! We are supportive to each other (let’s face it, we have all hard days in the pool with ill-behaved kids (and parents!) and being supported by the team around you becomes essential.
