I’m Ellen, founder of Zilt swim school.

A few months after my son was born end of 2024, I decided to quit my job as a corporate lawyer and start my own private swimming school.

Swimming has been a big part of my life since I was a kid. I started when I was four years old and never stopped ever since. I did eight years of competition swimming and I have more than seven years of experience teaching swimming lessons to young children. I’m also in possession of a Higher Rescue Diploma.

At Zilt we believe that swimming is about so much more than learning the right techniques. It’s about confidence, love and connection. We focus on your child’s unique abilities and strengths, so your child can grow in the water at its own pace.

We provide a calm and comfortable swim environment to guide your child through each of the ‘Waves’. Our method is specifically designed to ensure rapid progress, taking into account the highest industry standards. One-on-one or in duo, we are here to ensure your child learns one of the most essential life skills in the best possible way.

Hope to meet you soon!
