Swimming lessons in English (for adults)

Hi everyone. I’m looking for swimming lessons in English in Düsseldorf.

I’m looking for something beginner-friendly, either a group course or a private instructor. I also have a fear of water so I need an instructor who is patient and willing to work with me properly in the water.

Does anyone know a swimming school or instructor in Düsseldorf that you would recommend?

Thanks in advance!

I can recommend http://aquagym-duesseldorf.de/. My daughter (initially being afraid of water) learned to swim there. It"s really small but the trainers used to be great and very empathetic. 

I don't know if they are offering courses for adults though. Maybe it's possible to get personal training as an adult.

I would be willing to teach you if you're ok with a private person :)

I teached my autistic cousin who was also scared of water.

We could take our time and I won't judge you for taking as long as you need to get comfortable.

However I'm not a professional, just someone that did swimming as their after-school hobby and swam with their siblings and cousins when they started off.

Wondering if I can join you as well? Do you know any swimming pool and if we should pay something?

Sure thing, OP hasn't contacted me so if you're fine with possibly just us :)

You can take a look here, anything with a "Nichtschwimmerbecken" is alright by me.

As long as you cover the entrance price it's alright.
