swimming lessons

I'm looking for an adult swimming class or private instructor. I can swim already but never had lessons. I would like to learn some new strokes and also correct what I do already. Usually I just go to Victoria Park swimming pool cause it's near my home. I'd be happy to go somewhere else too, preferably on Hong Kong Island. Any suggestions? or does anyone want to share lessons? Thanks!

hey emmy sorry for lately reply. I swim usually in Shatin or Tai Wo. Actually I had been to Kowloon Park's pool once yet it was really nasty no matter in the pool or the changing room, so I dont think I will go there again.

PM me if you wanna join

Hello,

I have recently moved to Hong Kong after being born/living in America for 15 years. I am looking to find a place where I can teach swim lessons.

I am currently located in Ma on Shan, quite close to a competition pool, however I am free to go anywhere around Hong Kong.

Although I am young, I have probably had some of the hardest swim training there is for amateur swimmers. My accolades include

Mid-Atlantic 2002 Junior Olympics (All of Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey) 4th place 100 Breast Stroke, seeded time AAA standard. 4th place 50 breast stroke, seeded time AA standard.

Mid-Atlantic 2004 Junior Olympics 1st place consolation finals 100 breaststroke, 2nd place medley relay finals.

2004 Eastern Zones (All of Eastern United States) 9th place medley relay

Pennsylvania District 11 Finals (Reigning state champion district for 3 years) 3rd place 100 breast stroke.


I have also coached numerous teams during the summer in America, and have held private sessions with toddlers to teach them to swim. My tutor/coach was an Olympic Contender for 1960, she is now 65 and can still swim butterfly faster than me

I am a certified American Red Cross lifeguard, and have guarded at numerous beaches along the east coast.

I have been offered full ride scholarships to many big name swimming universities including Villanova and NYU.


I don't speak cantonese, however as you can probably assume I speak English very fluently.

I am very good with children, but I can teach adult beginners as well, everyone must start somewhere, and swimming is an essential skill to know, even if it is just the basics to survive.

If you are interested, please contact me at

lau.wai.ding@hotmail.com
or
60324899
or

Thank You!
