Engaged, knowledgeable and effective
Alex is present and engaged with my son during lessons. He knows the progression well — the small technical adjustments he focuses on make a real difference. There’s a clear direction to the instruction and I feel like we’re moving the right way.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Phenomenal Instructor
My two boys (8 and 6) have been attending lessons with Alex since July 2025 and he is by far the best swim instructor. He is extremely patient, knowledgeable, provides step by step instructions and focuses on proper technique. He also helped both boys overcome any nervousness pertaining to the deep end almost immediately. After each lesson, I see progress in my children’s swimming abilities. If you are thinking of booking private lessons, I highly recommend you book your lessons with Alex!
