Quality Instructors
AquaSkill's instructors are mature, dedicated and highly skilled at teaching. Aquaskills methods are an integration of the skills of Adrian Ginju, a former member of the Romanian Olympic Swim Team, and Lori Pailet, a certified AEA (Aquatic Exercise Association) specialist. Both are certified to teach swimming by the American Red Cross standards.

We believe in a gentle approach to teaching swim skills. Small instructor to student ratios for group sessions allow for the ultimate swim education courses available.

Convenient Locations
We offer classes in a range of locations throughout NYC, including Battery Park City, Upper Westside & Eastside of Manhattan, Tribeca and the Financial District. For 100% flexibility of class schedule, you can create your own semi-private or small groups by finding your own classmates.

Overcoming Fear of Water (Aqua Phobia)
Customized classes are designed for each individual’s needs and requirements and a gentle approach is taken with each student. Student and Instructor first complete a one hour long intro-session before determination of class length. Students learn relaxation techniques and learn to overcome their fear through fun & games incorporated with learning objectives.
