Roya is a very kind and professional instructor. I learned a lot from her classes. She explains everything clearly and is always patient and supportive. I really enjoyed the sessions and felt comfortable asking questions. I highly recommend her.

My son is 6 and he loves water and this is his first ever swimming lesson and he loved it, very much enjoyed Roya’s lesson. She’s a professional instructor that is very patient where my son feels comfortable and safe. Awesome experience! Highly recommend it!

Roya is a wonderful swim instructor! She is caring, patient, and makes every lesson fun. My daughter has improved a lot since starting lessons with her and she explains techniques in a way that is easy to understand. Roya has also helped my daughter strengthen her eggbeater and brick carry skills as she progresses through her lifesaving levels. Highly recommended!!

About Roya H.

I'm a Certified Swim Instructor and National Lifeguard with 15+ years of experience. I combine professional swim instruction with ICF-Certified Life Coaching to offer a holistic, supportive experience. I work with swimmers at every level — from complete beginners stepping into the pool for the first time to those preparing for professional

Teaching philosophy

I believe swimming is more than a skill — it's a gateway to safety, self-confidence, and inner peace. My approach combines safety (following Canadian Lifesaving Society standards), correct technique (stroke mechanics, breathing control, energy efficiency), and confidence-building (overcoming fear of water).

Where I teach

Port Moody

30-31°C · 32ft long · 3ft to 8ft deep

Located in the heart of Port Moody, just moments from the skytrain with ample street parking is a warm, family friendly pool perfect for children learning to swim and adults looking to advance their skills. The shallow side has a ladder for entry and is great for young children and beginning swimmers at 3 feet deep. A subtle slope leading to the deepest part of the pool at 8 feet is great to practice more advanced skills. With a brand new heater installed, the pool is kept at 86F (30C) perfect for those just learning to swim. We have a newly renovated bathroom right off the pool deck and pool deck changing pods for those who want to change quick before and after lessons. Shower available upon request.

Pool access details are provided after you book.
