About SwimJourney
SwimJourney is a swimming school operating islandwide from its base at ActiveSG Sport Park @ Teck Ghee in Ang Mo Kio. It is verified by KakiList, meaning a real person has confirmed its operating details and contact channels. The school holds a perfect 5-out-of-5 rating across 78 Google reviews — a moderate sample that suggests consistent positive feedback, though prospective students should read individual reviews to gauge fit.
Parents and adult learners enquiring about SwimJourney should first clarify the level and syllabus fit — whether that means beginner water confidence for young children, stroke refinement for intermediate swimmers, or adult learn-to-swim programmes. It is worth asking whether classes are conducted in small groups or on a one-to-one basis, what the term or monthly commitment looks like, and whether the curriculum aligns with any recognised swimming certification framework. The centre is located at a public ActiveSG facility, so understanding pool allocation, session times, and any shared-facility considerations will help set expectations before enrolment.
To take the next step, reach out to SwimJourney via WhatsApp, phone, or the enquiry form to ask about a trial class, confirm current availability for your preferred time slot, and discuss which programme suits your child's age or swimming level.

Highly Recommended – The Best Swimming Coach We’ve Ever Met! Coach Poh has been absolutely phenomenal. My children were never natural swimmers and had followed several coaches before, but the progress they made under Coach Poh is on a completely different level. His teaching style, patience, and ability to make children feel confident in the water are truly exceptional. In a short period of time, their skills improved tremendously, so much so that they are now ready for their upcoming swim exam. Most importantly, they now love swimming and look forward to every lesson. That, to me, is the mark of a truly gifted coach. We’re definitely continuing with him for the higher-level classes. In fact, I am so impressed that I plan to sign up for adult lessons with him together with a few friends. Coach Poh is professional, encouraging, and deeply committed to helping every student succeed. If you’re looking for a swimming coach who can bring out the best in both kids and adults, I cannot recommend him enough. One of the best coaches in Singapore! 👍👍👍

I was searching for a swimming teacher for my girl when I came across Coach Poh's amazing reviews on Google. Decided to engage him and definitely no regrets... He is such an excellent and experienced swimming instructor! My 6 yr old girl managed to swim just after 2 months of lessons. So impressed and amazed at how much she grew her water confidence (even in deep pool) and improved her skills, enjoying swimming so much under his teachings. He is also very good with the kids, making them feel comfortable and yet firm when necessary to ensure the best learning experience. Look no further if u r looking for a great swimming teacher, Coach Poh is highly recommended! Thanks coach for all your hard work and guidance!

We are truly blessed to have Coach Poh as our swimming coach. My children used to have water phobia and would drag their feet to swimming lessons with their previous coaches. Amazingly, in just 1.5 months under Coach Poh’s guidance, their water confidence has grown tremendously. Coach Poh teaches with genuine heart and patience, and he has a wonderful way of connecting with kids. Now, swimming has become the most anticipated lesson of the week—they look forward to it with excitement instead of fear. Thank you, Coach Poh, for making such a positive impact on our children’s swimming journey!

You found the right coach!! My kid used to learn from a private coach for 1year however we noticed there was no progression. We are referred by a friend whom kids are under the training of Coach Poh are able to swim compare to my kid. Just 1 month upon his first lesson, he is able to swim without any reliance of float. This builds up the confidence and continuations for my son under the good hands of coach Poh. He assesses the kids and group them accordingly to their standards and progress. Once again thank you Coach Poh.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does SwimJourney charge per session?›
SwimJourney's specific fees are not published on the listing, so it is best to contact them directly for current pricing. As a general guide for Singapore swimming schools, group lessons typically run S$25–50 per session when purchased as part of a monthly or term package, while one-to-one coaching can range from S$60–120 per session depending on duration and instructor experience. Some schools charge a separate registration or enrolment fee, and there may be additional costs for swim caps or other equipment. Ask whether a trial class is available and what it costs before committing to a full term. Sibling discounts or package deals for block bookings are common in the industry and worth enquiring about.

Can I try a class before committing?›
Many swimming schools in Singapore offer a trial class, sometimes at a reduced fee or as part of the first month's enrolment. A trial session is a practical way to assess whether the teaching style suits your child, whether the group size feels appropriate, and whether the pace and level match where your child currently is in the water. When attending the trial, observe how the instructor manages the group, how much individual attention each swimmer receives, and whether your child appears comfortable and engaged. A well-matched class should feel challenging but not overwhelming. Contact SwimJourney directly via WhatsApp or phone to ask about their trial class policy and any associated cost before booking.
What are the instructors' credentials at SwimJourney?›
Credential information for SwimJourney's instructors is not available on the listing. In the Singapore market, reputable swimming schools typically employ instructors certified by SwimSafer (the national water safety programme jointly developed by Sport Singapore, the Singapore Life Saving Society, and the People's Association), or hold qualifications from bodies such as the Swimming Teachers Association (STA) or the Australian Swimming Coaches and Teachers Association (ASCTA). It is reasonable to ask SwimJourney directly about the certifications their instructors hold, how many years of teaching experience they have, and whether there is consistency in instructor assignment so your child builds a relationship with the same coach over time. If SwimSafer certification is a priority — particularly for school-age children working through the national programme's six stages — confirm this with SwimJourney before enrolling.
