Client Reviews

Christopher is doing a great job with helping my daughter improve her swimming technique and helping her reach her max potential!

Coach Christopher did an excellent job. He utilized video to show them what improvement they needed with their stroke. The kids listened and were receptive to everything he said. We would highly recommend him to others looking for private instruction.
