Paddle to Stroke Swimming Lessons

My son really enjoy Swimming classes with Poya. He is such a good person and trainer.My son love to go for his swimming classes.After his class my son always remember the next day of swim class and too excited to go again.Highly Recommended.100% Safety.

My twin daughters starting swimming lessons with Poya a couple months ago and it’s been terrific. Poya is absolutely amazing with young kids. He took every lesson slow so that they became more comfortable with what was being taught. We’ve seen so much improvement in so little time. I highly recommend him as well as other trainers on his team as we also had the privilege of swimming with them one Saturday afternoon.

Great experience! Amazing swimming instructor; he is patient, thorough, and extremely skilled. My children have progressed so well over a short period of time. I recommend Paddle to Stroke swimming lessons, 100%!

Excellent classes, the teacher engages our kids so well and the kids really enjoy the classes. The teacher makes the class fun at the same time teaching them all the basic essentials of swimming. I would highly recommend these classes to anyone with children.

Poya has a real gift for teaching, and being able to break strokes down into parts that can be taught sequentially. He is also very talented at getting a swimmer to think through the reasons for different challenges they have with their stroke, which is a very powerful teaching tool. I've really enjoyed watching my daughter make concrete improvements in a short period of time. More importantly, my daughter is able to feel the improvements in her practices, which is really building her confidence.

Our two kids, 4 and 6 enjoyed so much their swimming lessons. They improvement only after a couple of weeks was mind blowing. Thank you so much for helping them develop a skill that is so important.

Signed up my 2.5 yrs old son for a 3 months period, twice weekly. My son had somewhat water phobia, but thanks to his super friendly coach Pooya, he could get through it easily. Coach Pooya used learn through play method, he gave very clear instructions that my bilingual son could understand, demonstrated what needs to he done, and they played while learning. By the end of the course, my son was able to put his head under water for few seconds, make bubbles, go in and out of the pool alone, hand walk on the edges without support, paddle with some support, and enjoy the water. We never used any floaters as my son refused them, but our coach taught my son to use the noodle and the floating board. We are very happy and proud with the results, and we look forward to learning more swimming techniques next summer!

Poya is a great coach with excellent teaching skills and remarkable approach to help kids and adults overcome their fear from water and master swimming techniques. My kids learned a lot, were always very excited for the lesson, and their swimming improved SIGNIFICANTLY thanks to his teaching methods. HIGHLY recommended for any swimming level!!!

Greatest swimming school in Ottawa. My 2 years old really enjoys the lessons and keep talking about it all the time. Staff is very friendly and experienced. I would really recommend this school to everyone.

Poya was a great coach, and I would highly recommend his services to any parent looking to improve their child's swim skills. My kids looked forward to every single swim session with him.
