As a lifelong aquatic professional myself, I can whole-heartedly attest to the amazing coach that Justin is. Over the years I have taken my own children to a variety of swim programs offered around Tucson and had yet to find one that met my coaching standards AND that my kids enjoyed. Coach Justin exceeded my expectations. In just a few short weeks he took my son from swim lessons to swimming laps with the team. I have seen the inner workings of many aquatic facilities over the years. Coach Justin is everything you want in a coach. He is firm, but kind. Strict, but caring. Professional, yet personable. He is extremely knowledgeable, not just about stroke technique, but also about how to explain the strokes to very young swimmers. Other programs teach a very basic idea of strokes and leave the fine tuning up to future coaches. Not Coach Justin. He teaches the fundamentals from the very beginning and uses proper swim terminology. The levels of his team build on each other very nicely. By the time most swimmers are out of the 8 and under age group, they have solid knowledge of all four strokes. So lucky to have found this program.
