I only had two private swimming lessons with Adrien at Cool Strokes LLC and yet by far he is the best swimming instructor I have ever worked with. I am very pleased with the results thus far as I have learned so much from Adrien in such a short time. Adrien is professional, knowledgeable, experienced, reliable, patient, and enthusiastic. His excellent teaching skills made it so easy to understand and follow. He worked with me at my own pace and patiently guided me from one swimming skill to another. I did not feel anxious at all while underwater as his instructions are super clear, logical, helpful, and efficient. He recognized my strengths and weaknesses, and most importantly, helped me to correct and avoid mistakes to improve my swimming skills. I also appreciate that Adrien did not throw in his sales pitch on the pre-paid packages because his attention was fully on my learning progression. I highly recommend Adrien at Cool Strokes to anyone who has the need for enjoyable and effective swimming lessons. Looking forward to our next sessions and planning on signing my three children up for advanced swimming lessons with Adrien. Thank you Adrien, for your outstanding service. Kelly

I wish I could choose all 5 items! My Instructor, Adrien Hosking, is AMAZING! I'm on lesson 4 of 8 in the package I purchased. His Patience, Encouragement and Skill has reduced my fears of swimming. As I look forward to lesson 5, I believe I can Swim! Over 4 decades of attempting group instructions, this is the first time , with Adriens' personal instructions, that has resulted in the desired outcome to swim. I encourage all, especially those of a tender age (70+) to receive this service...I suspect that Adrien will be in High Demand and I encourage all to access his and Cool Strokes LLC before they are destined to be the BEST service and possibly inundated with multiple request to provide their services!

"Where can I start? Adrien was a fantastic, friendly, and informative instructor that my 7 year old instantly was eager to get into the pool with. Adrien did a great job of teaching him the basics and helped him build up his encouragement to stay longer in the pool than he ever has before. I would highly recommend anyone whose children are wanting to learn to swim, to learn from Adrien. The most professional instructor I've ever had"
