About Us
Our Story
Starting off in 2020 coaching in private pools, our Founder, Rachael strived to provide a fun and targeted curriculum which catered to the needs of her student. Soon enough, word spread about Rachael’s coaching among parents who were keen to start their children swimming from a young. Praised for her ability to engage and communicate well with her students, the demand for Rachael’s classes exceeded what she could schedule. With a passion to make swimming fun and accessible to more, Rachael founded Marlin Swim School in 2022 to reach out to those who desire water confidence.
Our logo and mascot is The Black Marlin fish, one of the fastest swimmers in the ocean, with a maximum speed of 129km/h. Our swim school’s programmes and classes are created to train up sharp and confident swimmers.
