『Swimming develops all the essential skills children need』
By YU Sugahara, Swimmy CEO
Swimming has consistently held the No.1 position as the most popular children's activity for many years. According to a survey, swimming tops the list of "Activities TOKYO University students did in elementary school," with an overwhelming 60% having swimming experience - meaning more than half of Tokyo University students took swimming lessons during their elementary school years.
We also have our Tokyo Station location !
Our Approach:
Pursuing "Fun!" through Personalized Instruction
We believe that nurturing children's "ability to think independently" and "capacity for proactive action"
is at the core of education.
Our instructors *focus not only on improving swimming techniques, but also on overall child development.
We provide an environment where children can learn enjoyably while respecting each individual's uniqueness.
Rather than the one-way instructions common in traditional swimming schools, we value children's questions of "why?" and "how?" Through questions and discoveries from children, we practice two-way lessons that identify and solve challenges, naturally developing both swimming skills and thinking abilities.
1. Interactive Teaching Method
To cherish each child's moments of achievement, we strictly maintain small class sizes. With one coach, we limit to 4 students maximum, and with two coaches, we accept up to 6 students. This allows us to address each child's challenges in detail. More practical opportunities during practice time lead to definite improvement. Even shy children or those uncomfortable in new places learn to participate comfortably in our home-like atmosphere with the support of our coaches.
2. Guaranteed Small Group Size
With approximately half of our students being international, our lessons naturally flow between Japanese and English. Swimming alongside friends from different cultural backgrounds allows children to improve their swimming while enjoyably learning about language and cultural differences. We support children's growth with a global perspective within our international community.
3. Natural Japanese and English Learning Environment

About Swimmy Swimming School
Located in the heated pool at Tokyo Midtown Yaesu, Swimmy Swimming School Tokyo focuses on developing children's ability to "think independently and act proactively" through sports.
Teaching Philosophy
Our primary focus is developing your child's ability to "think independently and take proactive action." Through swimming, children accumulate successful experiences of "I did it!" that build their confidence. In our small groups of up to 6 students, children naturally develop teamwork and etiquette skills that cannot be gained through private instruction alone.
Key Features
★ Proven Progress Through Small Group Instruction
With a maximum of 6 students per class, each child gets significantly more swimming time compared to traditional swimming schools. Our attentive instruction ensures rapid and steady improvement.
★ Child-Led Learning Approach
Our instructors collaborate with children to explore ways to improve, fostering growth together.
By immediately recognizing and praising their efforts, we encourage self-motivated learning.
Three Benefits of Swimming During the Pre-Golden Age
★ Comprehensive Physical Development
Symmetrical full-body movements in water stimulates rarely-used muscles and develops balance.
This naturally enhances core strength and overall body coordination.
★ Effective Cardiopulmonary Enhancement
The water pressure provides optimal resistance for respiratory muscles,
improving cardiopulmonary function more efficiently than land-based exercises. Additionally,
rhythmic breathing patterns have been shown to help regulate asthma symptoms.
★ Improved Decision-Making
Breathing and coordinating arm and leg movements in water.
This enhances your child's situational awareness and reaction speed.
These valuable skills transfer to daily life and other sports activities.
