Hi there! My name is Johnson and I've been a swimming instructor for 8 years+. I've taught levels from Red Cross Parents and Tots (6 months+) all the way up to Swim Kids 10! I'm especially patient and effective with preschool children, but my competitive swimming background (Vikings, OMSC, PSTC) plays strongly with older children and adults as well! I've also volunteered with SwimAbility Okanagan, teaching adapted swim lessons to children with special needs. Swimming is my passion, and I am excited to pass along my knowledge by teaching swim progressions! My swimming philosophy is to make swimming and moving in the water fun for children and adults, but to also push them to the best of their ability so that they are continually improving! I believe that swimming is an important life skill for everybody, regardless of age or prior experience, therefore I always try to keep my rates as reasonable as possible. A couple fun facts about me: -I was the former Head Lesson Supervisor at Pedalheads Swim (previously Atlantis Programs). -I've done several triathlons and Gran Fondos, my latest one being the Ironman 70.3 Victoria 2024. -In addition to English, I am also fluent in Mandarin 我也會中文喔!

Fun, Educational, and Prepared
Teacher Johnson is hands down one of the best swim coaches my kids have had. With an educational development professional background, you can really tell he knows how to work with kids. He's made lessons super fun for my 5 year old while still pushing him to work hard and progress his swimming skills. We started with him when my son was 3 and we'll keep with him because he's so good. Highly recommend you give him a try!
