At Blue Dolphin swim school, our mission is to make our students elegant, accurate, efficient, water-safe swimmers.
I see myself as an encouraging, detail-oriented coach who builds my student’s confidence and skillset and cheers him/her to success. My trainees see me as their truth-telling ally and eagerly accept my instruction on their road to greatness.
Novices quickly learn to swim precisely and gracefully, as well as become completely pool-safe. Some of the most stubborn and anxiety-ridden, unruly, and resistant individuals are among those I effectively teach. I’m able to break down barriers until beginners become putty in my hands. Crying, whining, biting, scratching, kicking, slapping, spitting, hateful insults, pleading, and negotiation attempts are all ignored. Kids try it all on me to no avail. I relentlessly encourage my students to succeed.
I routinely push pupils to perform the impossible, but I’m also fair. From the very beginning, my students are programmed to accept the goal of being OUTSTANDING swimmers. Very good is NOT good enough! My target is EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE, and nothing less. However, when a gentle, loving approach is required, I use it.
To excel in swimming, trainees must develop the right attitude and accurate swimming skills and must deeply embed this information in their psyche. These skills are taught during my sessions. My secret? My students fully comprehend swimming concepts and INTERNALIZE them rather than MEMORIZE them.
