About Earl T.
I began my aquatics career in 2013 as a lifeguard at the North Surrey Recreation Centre and went on to build close connections with families as their children's primary instructor. I swam competitively in the USA from grade 6 to grade 8, and I hold a black belt in Taekwondo, having coached it from grade 8 to grade 12.
Teaching philosophy
My lessons are active, fun, and tailored to each student's needs, promoting confidence and skill development. My background in competitive swimming, martial arts coaching, and supervisory roles gives me a well-rounded approach emphasizing discipline, focus, and personalized instruction.

Where I teach
Surrey Panorama Ridge
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.

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.
