About
Hi, I've been teaching private swim lessons on-and-off since I was 16, the most important key is being able to relate with my students. Unlike other instructors, I'm able to put myself in my student's shoe and customize each lesson to their needs. I know swimming can be a fearful experience for many, but with my patience and encouraging teaching style, I always see lots of improvement. I prefer one-on-one swim lessons, but under certain circumstances, I can teach a joint lesson. It's all about how safe I feel both students are in the water. I've taught kids and adults ranged from 2-65 years old. Teaching is learning and learning is teaching! I feel like I learn a lot by teaching and adapting to each student's needs and personality and each student should aspire to teach himself.... To really anchor the techniques into brain and muscle memory.

CJ is both knowledgeable and patient while instructing. My first lesson went very well and I’m looking forward to our weekly lessons. Teaching an adult how to swim can’t be easy, but CJ makes it that way. Don’t hesitate to hire him as your swim coach.

CJ is wonderful. He made me feel at ease in the water, I felt confident, and reassured by his calm demeanor. He was very complimentary of my progress, and that helped in immediate confidence building. I would highly recommend him.
