"I attended their classes for 2 months and learnt nothing. Also, the trainers (one old guy and Tarun) are absolute idiots and very rude to male students. However, they are completely opposite, i.e. very sweet to female students."

"Arrogant, fascist, dictator, egoistic self-proclaimed trainer. Trainer is rude and doesn't know how to behave with people who visited to join the classes, in my first visit I went to inquire about the classes as I am beginner in swimming but he made fun of me in front of all swimmers and didn't give any info but started talking about his bloody strict and how disciplined we should be. As per his words I bought swim suit also and next day went to the join the class, but he started talking about the discipline and how strict he is and called one of the student to tell me about the same and asked me to come next day. Third day when I went to join he once again started to tell all the bullshit I listened the other two days and then he started to comment about the dress as I was wearing lungi as I stayed the next road to the academy and he doesn't want me to come in that dress for the classes. I argued with him about the same as its my wish what to wear outside the classes and to obey him when I am in the class but he wants me to wear the dress as per his instructions outside while coming to the classes. Its my wish to wear what ever I feel to and who is he to command. Students in the academy also told me not to argue with him. If this is the state of mind of a instructor then how can we expect good results in their academy. Zero star for the academy and people please don't think of joining this academy hoping you can learn in a proper way, you may get disappointed."

"Coaching is excellent, coaches are very sweet. Learning to swim there was a pleasant experience. Misbehavior is not tolerated by the coaches, the coaches are there to teach us they do not shout unnecessarily, if the coaches have its only because the students would have misbehaved."

"I enjoy my classes and the coaching is excellent. With the help of the coaches Mr Naresh and Mr Tarun I was able to fulfill my life long dream of learning to swim. If you are interested in learning how to swim this is the perfect place to do so."

"Mr. Tarun and his respectable Dad are indeed very good as persons. They really behave well with the female students and care for all their students for sure. However that does not make them good swimming coaches. I took this course for one month, but they NEVER taught how to breathe while swimming freestyle, there`s excessive focus on kicking and arm action (which is *wrong*, no high-elbow) and none on breathing. Also the pool is small for the crowd they allow, with no shower and changing room it resembles a cowshed (although I must say the pool is decently clean)"

"Excellent place to learn swimming. Mr Naresh and Tarun have been very kind and helpful to me. During my classes I noticed that they concentrate more on the basics like arm action and kicking which was not available anywhere else (tried to learn at other places, failed). The focus on the arm action (for which there is a mirror) is to help the breathing. Really impressed with the place, I attend the 6:30 batch in the morning and saw this handicapped person who cant stand learning (and learnt) to swim. Basic place, no fancy stuff, very simple changing rooms and showers."

"Dear Mr Khursheed, I would like to respond to your half baked review on Mr Naresh and Mr Tarun, who are not only very respectable people but they are excellent coaches as well. You have taken the course for just a month and it is quite obvious that you have been going through online articles on swimming and confused yourself. You mentioned their emphasis on kicking and arm action, perhaps you have not realised that they repeatedly ask people to raise their arms which is the "high elbow" technique? I have been there student for the past 10 years way, before they started to coach at the present place. I am sure I have better knowledge of their coaching. Yes they do focus on kicking and arm movements and I have followed their advice all along and they are RIGHT. They begin by teaching you first to swim the crawl (which is what is known as freestyle) and then start teaching you the right techniques for that and Mr Khursheed its quite obvious you didn`t continue classes to be taught that. In regards to the breathing, they teach the use of a kickboard after a person learns to kick and emphasize to breathe, for a beginner they teach you to swim with your head up and then correct it (its based on study conducted that shows students fare better when taught in this manner). In one month almost all students are capable of swimming ten lengths or more. In regards to the crowd all the batches are not same and perhaps you are expecting a pool only with you in it for 1000rs? In regards to the showers there are two shower rooms and separate changing rooms for boys and girls. Please do not falsify facts."
