Our brand Pool Academy began in October 2011, in a town called Durban, South Africa. It then evolved into Pool Academy Swim School, which concentrated on providing swimming lessons and coaching to the community in South Africa.

In 2017, we changed our entire operation to a club setting in South Africa and we called ourselves Pool Academy Aquatics.

Pool Academy Aquatics UAE was born in January 2019. This new birth gave rise to the collaboration of two national swimming curricula (England and South Africa).

Global Chief Executive of Pool Academy Aquatics - Wasim Tifflin, arrived in Dubai with a vision of creating an International Aquatics Club - the very first privately owned Aquatics Club to be on two continents, anywhere in the world!

Charlotte Jackson - Global Chief of Operations at Pool Academy Aquatics, arrived in Dubai with a vision of merging the British Swimming Curriculum with another.

Wasim and Charlotte met in Dubai, where they realised that they both shared the same vision and goals. With Wasim's established brand in South Africa and Charlotte's exemplary English experience, Pool Academy Aquatics is set to be the most successful Aquatics Club in the world!

At Pool Academy Aquatics, our ultimate goal is to provide a quality service at an affordable price. In India, we will begin providing our Swimming Program to the community and then move onto providing the other aquatic disciplines such as: Water Polo and Synchronised Swimming.

In South Africa, Pool Academy Aquatics is accredited to the national federation - Swimming South Africa.
In the United Arab Emirates, Pool Academy Aquatics is affiliated to the UAE Swimming Federation.
