Everything is special. The trainning and the atmosphere. The most important thing is the experience of experienced swimmers. Vlad and David undertand, know, explain very clearly and follow the progress of each student. Win and Swim is the best !

After a few lessons I really feel I improved my technique, which leads me to scoring better times in the pool. I feel so good with the progress I'm making. Big thanks to the Win and Swim team!!!

Absolutely amazing. Great atmosphere and a wonderful coach that made me feel comfortable and at ease. I learned how to define my strokes and quicken my speed because of these great lessons. Highly recommend Win and Swim to others!

I've been training with Vlad since the autumn of 2022. In 11 months of training, I managed to complete two levels in deep water and move to B level of Advanced.

I chose to continue training with Vlad because I trust his commitment to my progress, coaching style, clarity and capacity to anticipate what I need to feel confident and give my best in the water.

It is the best learning platform I have ever used. Helped me a lot. It has every technique described in an accessible but still detailed manner. Daily workout to keep in shape. Would recommend it to everyone, no matter the age!!!!
