Deep Breath x Shaw Method

Help Shape the Future of The Art of Swimming Academy

We’re exploring a new, more flexible way to swim, learn, and grow with the Shaw Method — and we’d love your feedback.

“After more than 35 years of teaching, I’ve seen that swimming isn’t just a skill — it’s a practice that nourishes body, mind, and spirit.
To help our community continue to grow and learn with ease, we’re exploring a new Art of Swimming Membership — offering flexible, ongoing access to classes at both Golders Green and Putney.

Instead of short courses, this model would provide greater flexibility, consistency, and value, with the freedom to swim regularly, choose your classes, and develop at your own pace.

Your feedback will help us design a membership that truly works for you.”

Steven Shaw, Founder of The Art of Swimming

What the Membership Could Include

  • Unlimited weekday classes across both venues
  • Monthly SwimCheck with personal video feedback
  • Small-group sessions designed for mindful learning
  • Access to Aqua courses and refined classes
  • Member discounts on 1-2-1 lessons and weekend workshops
  • Flexible booking — choose sessions that fit your schedule

Membership would be around £99/month, with a pay-as-you-go option also under consideration.
