Swimming coach in Phuket
Elizaveta Tanailova Founder and Director "Helping children develop is why I love getting out of bed every morning. It's important to me that children feel supported at every stage, aren't afraid to make mistakes, and celebrate their small victories. It's wonderful to watch as fears turn into laughter, and the first uncertain movements transform into smooth, confident strokes."

I work primarily with children. I know how to incorporate swimming into a child's development from the earliest age: from the first months of life. I know how to build proper technique for those who have been swimming "all their lives". And I know much more :)

Eduard Baytemirov Head Coach, Methodologist "Swimming and teaching others to swim has been my childhood dream. Over the years, this dream has turned into a profession that allows me to help people discover new possibilities in water. I don't just teach technique — I show how swimming can become a source of confidence and inner strength."

Swimming with children of all ages, swimming with adults. I find an individual approach for each student, taking into account age, physiological, and psychological characteristics.
