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.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

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!

Alex has been so great with my 2 boys ages 9 & 12. I’ve seen their swimming go from new swimmers to swimming confidently in only a matter of about 5 months. My youngest can get very distracted, but he’s able to keep him on track & keep him focused on the lesson. I like how he focuses not only on them being competent swimmers, but also on technique and most importantly water safety. We will continue our lessons with Alex as long as we are able!

After just two lessons with Alex I can already see improvements. He helped take away my kids fear of the deep end and gave them safety reassurance. They are now more relaxed and confident in the water. We are very happy with Alex.

My teenage boys have had a very positive experience with Alex. He’s very focused and covers multiple skills in every lesson. We’re very happy with the progress after 2 lessons for both confidence and skill development. Alex is able to use his skills and experience to tailor his approach based on the unique needs of each of our boys. We’re excited to continue booking with him.

About Alex H.

I have over 14 years of experience teaching swimming lessons and 6 years as a lesson supervisor. I trained Canadian Juniors and Senior Champion Adam Wu during his formative years — a 5-time champion, 4-time Junior Pan Pacific finalist, ranked 1st in BC and 6th in Canada, with 5 Canadian records.

Teaching philosophy

My focus is on improving technique, correcting bad habits, and developing skills using Red Cross and Swim for Life standards. I draw on over 14 years of teaching experience and 6 years of supervisory work to structure lessons that move swimmers forward efficiently regardless of age or ability.

Where I teach

Surrey Panorama Ridge

30-31°C · 45ft long · 3ft to 10ft deep

A hidden neighborhood retreat, this bright indoor pool feels like a mini getaway. Sunlight pours through the large panel doors along one end, lighting up the sparkling blue water while giving swimmers a fun peek at the outdoors. The pool's gentle stair entry is perfect for toddlers easing into the water, and the gradual depth and long length allow everyone from beginners to confident swimmers to practice at their own pace. Just steps away, a newly renovated restroom, shower, and changing room make getting ready easy for parents juggling towels and goggles. Warm lighting, fresh facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere come together to create a safe, cheerful space where families and individuals can build skills, confidence, and happy memories in the water.

Pool access details are provided after you book.
