I have been swimming from the time I was an infant in "Mommy-n-Me" classes, to more recently as a swim coach at pools such as Goldfish Swim School and Camp Mary Orton, with experience teaching kids from ages 3 months- 15 years old. I'm a certified lifeguard with Red Cross, with CPR, AED, and First Aid skills, and a certified swim instructor with a WSI, so your kids will be in safe hands.

Dean
For three decades, I've cultivated a love for soccer playing myself, and that passion has transferred into 15 years of coaching players of all levels, especially premier competitive athletes who were rookies when they met me. My coaching is the most comprehensive, systematic, all-angle training where I meet the athlete where they're at and help them steadily improve with confidence and ease. They'll get better with all forms of skill development, from touch to ball work to turning to making moves they never knew they could do. Let's make your kids rise in talent and up the ranks!
"My son Jim is in high school and was focusing on trying out for his team in Seattle. They play against some top-tier teams, like Lincoln. Pavel does what our premier coaches don't do. He focused on my son's skill, from start to finish, from many angles. One particular drill involved five different stations, all well thought of, with different skills tested. When my son went back he felt like he could navigate high pressure situations, with many defenders coming at him. I've seen my son change before my eyes, and it's fantastic. I highly recommend Pavel

"I have been training with Marquell for several years and he is amazing. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable, and extremely understanding. He listens to his clients.
