"I finally found a place after several swim schools over the years with much frustration with either bad or rude teachers now my kids and I are more than happy with AquaBuddies as they have responsible prices and are both friendly, polite and are very knowledgeable teachers, I am so impressed with these guys!"
Hannah, AquaBuddies Bondi
"Amazing. My son is 3 and we've been doing lessons with Amelia. He was hesitant about water in the beginning but Amelia has been fun, friendly, warm, patient and encouraging. I'd passionately recommend AquaBuddies to anyone. Also the pool room is so warm which is such a win xx"
