I came to Coach Firas with a real fear of water, and I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made. he was so patient and understanding, never rushing me and always encouraging me to keep going. Now I’m not afraid of the water anymore, and I’m actually enjoying swimming! If you’re looking for a coach who really knows how to help you overcome your fears, coach Firas is the one.
