The best thing about Joseph Schooling is not his swimming prowess, it's his personality. My son and a couple of kids met him in the pool once, he was chatting with them and hi-fived my boy when he realized that my DS was also in ACJS, Joseph's alma mater.
Joseph Schooling is a polite, humble and well brought up young man, as far as I observed. There was no airs about him.
Well done, Mr and Mrs Schooling !
ya they are nice people! The mum took a glass of water for the emcee that night, the emcee said this is the first time someone ever offer him a drink after 10-15yrs in his business..hehe
Btw I was there think 3 weeks ago, so I went to the changing room after the training, no vulgarity and hope it stays that way

One of my student bog a pair at Mustaffa today..light blue and gray for $29+
Hi Wolfgirl and Swimironkids,Wolfgirl:
My girl just uses the fins sold at her club. Cheap. About $15 a pair. Or less.
My girl can do 400IMs nowadays. And her strokes have improved significantly.
She smiles when she is in the pool, which is very important. It shows that she enjoys it and not hates it.
Tks for info. Is there any specific brand/model? Will checkout from mustafa too!
Adding to this thread. What the advices for newbie parent whose kids are going into competitive swimming?
How to help them overcome the laps swimming, at the same time the tough training wouldn't kill the swimming interest. :sick:

Anybody know if Swimfast has competitive swimming classes in the East?
My boy is in P1. He has been jumping into the pool whenever we brought him swimming, even before he learnt how to swim. He loves swimming and being in the pool. I started him on swimming classes (swim safer program) last year, he learnt freestyle, breaststroke, and perhaps also backstroke. However, the coach "sacked" him from the class as he got quite disruptive during the class (kept jumping into the pool when coach was guiding other students). I also heard that it’s only in competitive swimming that they are taught proper strokes.
Is P1 too early to start on competitive swimming? My boy is very active and has loads of energy, he is also very mischievous, so I am considering starting him on some activity where he will learn to be disciplined. -
