Welcome to Gina’s Swim School

We are a boutique swim school located in Coolum Beach and run by Gina Baruch. Gina is a highly qualified swim instructor with over 20 years of experience. Our classes are taught in a nurturing environment and each child’s needs are considered in order to maximise their learning experience.

Advantages of small swim class sizes in a boutique swim school:

  • your child will learn progressive swimming skills
  • quiet environment in which children can focus and learn without interruptions
  • your child will be able to take better instruction from their swim teacher
  • more personalised swim programs that allow your child to learn at their own pace.

What we offer

Swim programs to suit babies (from 6wks) to prep aged children.

Lessons on swimming and survival skills as well as water safety.

Regular classes from Tuesday through to Saturday each week.

Heated Ozone accredited swimming pool with change room facilities.

What our parents say:

  • positive review  We’re so grateful to have all 3 of our children of such a young age be taught important swimming skills along with the importance of water safety. Gina has a real passion for what she is teaching and our children are always asking when we’re going to ‘Gina’s pool’.

    positive review  I highly recommend Gina's swim school. My daughter, (now 3.5), has been going weekly since she was 4 months old and we could not be happier. I can only echo what all the other rave reviews on here have already said. Highly professional & extremely experienced. We love the great pool and the small class sizes, which gives the students quality tuition.

  • positive review  Gina taught our two eldest children from a young age and they are now very confident in the water. We were so happy with her that we have returned 6 years later with our youngest twins. They did not have the same opportunity to start early swimming lessons and were not confident in the water. Gina went out of her way to ensure they were in a great environment that suited their ability and confidence. The facilities are great and the small classes ensures they get the attention they needed. Thank you Gina.

    positive review  My 3 children (5yrs, 3yrs, 10mth) have all been taught by Gina and they are all so confident in the water. Gina does a lot of focus on water safety in and out of the pool which is so important. Classes are very small so each one gets a lot of one-on-one attention. The Ozone pool is also very sensitive skin/eczema friendly. Highly recommend Gina!

    positive review  We started Gina’s swim school when my boy was just one, and I wished we had started sooner! We have absolutely loved our time there and can’t see ourselves stopping any time soon. We love that the classes are small in size which makes it much easier for my little one to focus and learn. Gina highly prioritises swim safety alongside teaching swim skills, and makes swimming fun! As a mother of a busy boy who isn’t scared of much, this has been a major highlight for us. The progress in his swimming ability and confidence over the past 8 months has been amazing to witness. He absolutely adores Gina and gets very excited when we talk about swimming lessons each week. Thank you Gina for a wonderful and positive first swimming experience, we cannot thank you enough! We have been so impressed with Gina’s swim school and would happily recommend to anyone starting their little one in swimming lessons!

  • positive review  We love our weekly swim lessons with Gina. She is extremely organised and welcoming. Her unique ozone pool is clean and warm + we don’t have to shower after our lessons which is a bonus with a baby!

    positive review  My two daughters (1&3) have been attending Gina’s Blue Water Babies for around a year now and we have been very impressed with the service Gina offers. Both girls are excited to do swimming lessons each week and have grown in confidence immensely. I like that the lessons are structured, planned and change each week. We highly recommend Gina's swim school.
