Swim lessons with Andrew R.

Hi, I’m Andrew! You can find me lifeguarding the beaches in West Vancouver and swimming the ocean of Burrard Inlet. I'm a swim instructor certified in Swim for Life and Breaking Waves, dedicated to helping you soar in the water, no matter your level. Born and raised in Edmonton, I moved to Vancouver to chase the ocean’s flow, where I now teach with infectious energy and a style that gets results quicker. My experience spans diverse swimmers, delivering lessons that spark confidence, bravery, performance and a lot of fun! TU-FRI & Sunday Downtown at Residence Inn 1234 Horny St Saturdays Oakridge 49 St & Cambie My teaching style is like your best friend guiding you to be ready for beaches and lakes—fun, supportive, and tailored to you and the changes occuring. I ditch rigid scripts, using kinesiology, playful tactics, and/or even philosophy to unlock your swimming potential swiftly. With clear communication (great for English-second-language learners and children), I create a welcoming vibe where you’ll feel ready to dive in and shine and feel authentic in the water. That's really my promise. What makes me stand out? My drive to help you surpass your goals as quickly as possible. Whether through dynamic lessons or curated requests that energize your swim sessions, I’m here to make you feel like you’re flying on and in water. Let’s hit the pool and unlock your aquatic powers together! In the gallery are some of the equipment and more I'll be using as I pride my self on coming fully prepared. From the pics you'll see I also take people out into the ocean when they're ready for a swim. I also hold a Waterart Aqua-fit certificate, so if you want a tailored work out for you life needs hit me up. Fluent in Spanish as a 2nd language.
