I am almost 40yo, and I don't know how to swim. I am uneasy on water. Today is my first session in swimming with Coach Joshua. We had a 45min session. I am happy to say that I learned to do a short distance of breast stroke. It was a fun, informative and fulfilling experience. At first there was some feeling of low-self esteem, but during and after the class, I felt more confidence and excited to practice more, and look forward to the next class. I encourage everyone to learn to swim! It is good for your health, makes holidays on resorts, beaches and sea more enjoyable, and makes you more confident too. Thanks to Coach Joshua! He is patient, encouraging and explains the principles clearly! 🙌The photos attached here are in AMK Swimming complex.

My kids started their lesson on Dec 2022. Thank you coach Darren and i can see great improvement. They love it, has lots of fun during lesson and cant wait for the next lesson start.
When I enrolled my 4 yrs daughter in swimming lessons, I was concerned about her lack of experience. But the coach were amazing! Coach took her time to teach her the basics, and she has been improving with each lesson. Coach was very patient with her, and it's been such a pleasure to see her develop her skills. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for quality swimming lessons!

Coach Darren is by far the best i have seen in Singapore. His way of coaching was so efficient and thorough. He truly covered the most important basics of swimming that i felt lacked in all the other lessons my sons have taken with other coaches. My 7 year old son’s progress was phenomenal in just under a week, he was able to refine his strokes and was swimming with coordination and good speed, compared to the little progress i saw after months of weekly lessons he has had before with other coaches. We had this coach for just 4 days since we were visiting Singapore from Canada, and I am amazed by how different the results were in just 4 lessons. So if you want to see speedy progress, I highly recommend Darren. Well worth the $ spent.

My daughter started learning under Coach Darren since she was 4.5 years old.Coach Darren was our 5th instructor already by that time. He was very patient and good with children. He brought toys and engaged with my daughter and she really enjoyed every swimming session. He teaches my daughter in a systematic method to ensure she could master every stage.Coach Darren is very good with young toddler. Trust you are in good hand with him as the Coach for yr child. Highly recommended.
