About Edward L.
I've taught swimming since 2019, currently instructing and lifeguarding at UofT and coaching its Masters and Tri Club. As a former competitive swimmer (since 2011) and water polo player, I love helping people of all ages build skill and confidence in the water, from first-time beginners to athletes preparing to compete.
Teaching philosophy
Every lesson starts by getting clear on your goals. I pinpoint the root cause of what's holding you back, then build from a solid base through steady progressions grounded in proven curriculum and science. I'm direct with feedback but always encouraging, making sure you're aware of your own progress.

A typical first lesson
The first lesson is mostly about getting to know you. We'll talk through your goals, then I'll watch you swim to spot the root cause of what to work on. From there we set a comfortable baseline and start building with small progressions. Expect direct, encouraging feedback, and expect to have fun while we're at it!

Where I teach
Yorkville Royal Sonesta Hotel
This warm penthouse pool is an incredible facility that's conveniently located right on Bloor St. in Yorkville. Enjoy free wifi and towel service along with a quaint outdoor deck which faces a private courtyard below with the Toronto skyline just visible along the horizon. This pool is great for beginner and intermediate swimmers of all ages.
Pool access details are provided after you book.
