"Tyler was amazing with the kids. Very engaging, easy to understand, very informative, and made it fun! Tyler was very detail oriented in delivery of his instruction. He taught the small things that are sometimes overlooked to ensure each step of whether it be starts, dolphin kicking etc was perfected in its entirety. Definitely learned from Tyler and he made it fun!!!"

- Melissa, 10/14/2018

"Tyler did a great job with the kids. Specific advice that stood out: when stream lining, keeping her head tight (as if she's going to pop her head off) and feet/legs together."

"The clinic was well done and I had take aways as a swim coach. Thanks Tyler! You explained things clearly and effectively."

- Kristin, 10/7/2018

"My older son was impressed with Tyler showing them to push off at a slightly downward angle to maximize the distance of their stream line. Alex is a breaststroker and had never been shown the way Tyler showed the swimmers how to recover by sliding their arms crossed up over their abdomen and chest back to streamline position never letting any part of their arms going beyond the width of their torso."

- Alex Doerwaldt, 10/7/2018
