Beginner classes in Bath

“We have been swimming with Puddle Ducks since our son was 10 weeks old, and he is now 3. He has come on leaps and bounds (quite literally!) He is so confident in the water and the focus on safety gives us sense a reassurance. He absolutely loves swimming and it’s something that we love to do together. The teachers are all amazing (and we’ve particularly loved having Carly and Vicki) and are so passionate, they also make the classes so fun. Thank you Puddle Ducks!”

“I've been going to salsa souls for the last 4 years (coming up to 5) and every time I go I come out with a smile on my face. Stellan is a fantastic dance teacher and brings the whole room together. I've seen so much improvement in myself and other students - he really cares about your technique and patiently shows you how to advance. Thanks to him and his lessons over the years, I have so much more confidence and have been able to dance salsa in different countries, including Colombia. If you want to start a new hobby, have fun and learn how to salsa dance well, join Salsa Souls :)”

“More gyms in one place than I've ever seen, and uni gyms weren't like these in my day! Oh what a time to be alive. And a student.”

“I’d really wanted to get into guitar for years and I’ve found Richard to be an amazing gateway and teacher! I really enjoy playing some of my favourite songs (lots of Bowie ;)) and I’ve even had the chance to play in open mic nights which I’ve really enjoyed.”

“If I could give you six stars, I would! In the sixteen months I've been training here I've experienced continual and lasting improvement in my physical fitness and overall wellbeing - I've lost weight, gained confidence, made friends and I've never felt better! For years I longed to learn a martial art; partly for the self-defence aspect, partly for the more meditative benefits, but mainly because I thought it seemed like really good fun. But for a long time I was too nervous to join a class because I thought I wasn't fit enough. When I found out that Kung Fu Fit offer your first class for free I took the plunge and I've been hooked ever since. Give it a try - you won't regret it!”

“A wonderful evening at Bath Ceroc- always a good time guaranteed! No need to bring a partner. No dancing experience required! Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. A great social event every Thursday in Bath!”

“Such a wonderful, friendly and inclusive dance school. The adult classes are brilliant for all and the teaching staff are fantastic.”

“Having studied Shiatsu at another school for one and a half years, I took a three month taster course with Frank Davies of Bath School of Shiatsu and Yoga. In terms of Shiatsu techniques, I can truthfully say I learned more in those three months with him than I'd learned in a year and a half with my previous school. Such was the force of this realisation, I decided to go back to the first year with him and start my learning journey right from the beginning again - and this has been a very good decision! Frank's integration of Yoga - which I am not good at - and emphasis on posture makes the process of giving Shiatsu not only more comfortable as a practitioner, but a more fluid and enjoyable experience for the recipient. As a tutor Frank is exacting. But the consistency of his approach to teaching and his immense encouragement builds my confidence, and also my hunger to learn more and more. His passion for what he does is infectious and his sense of humour fills our beautiful workspace. Beyond that, his love for his students is tangible. And his patience... I'll admit I must have tested this in him, but have been met only with kindness and further encouragement. I can't recommend this course more highly. It has changed my life, and I have a huge sense of gratitude for this.”

“Great beginners lesson. Made to feel welcome. Recommend Bath Salsa if you want to try out and never been.”

“Michelle and the String Quartet were absolutely incredible at our wedding. Could not recommend them more. They have an amazing and varied set list to choose from and play just so beautifully. Communication was very easy as well :) thank you so much!”

“I have been coming to Baskervilles gym for nearly 5 years now as a student at the Uni of Bath. The gym have run gymnastics training for the snow sports club for as long as I have been a member. Paul especially has always taken care of us and tailores his gymnastics expertise to movements for us on skis in the park. I have seen many friends and myself take skills and exercises we have learned in the gym to improve ourselves on the slopes. The team always do a great job adapting our sessions to all the various skill levels of the members we bring. Everyone equally has a great time and has the opportunity to progress!”
