Coaching Bio

I have taught learn to swim and trained high performance swimmers worldwide for over 25 years and I am Swimming Australia/SCTA licensed. In 2002 I established The Hayley Lewis Swim School with Olympic and World Champion swimmer Hayley Lewis. In 2018 I established SLP Global and won the Thailand Prestige Award Sports Club of the Year 2021/22. I have also received the APAC Insider SOUTH EAST ASIA Business Award Recognised Leader in Sports Development Thailand 2022. I offer proven expertise in coaching, program development, and business leadership within high performance swimming.

As a National level swimmer, I achieved Top 10 rankings in 100m and 50m Breaststroke. I trained alongside Australian swimming superstars Susie O‘Neil, Jade Edmistone, and Scott Logan under the guidance of Australian Olympic and AIS coach, the late Bernie Wakefield. I currently hold Top 10 Australia Masters Rankings in Breaststroke events.

David is a very experienced coach. Picked up my son's issues very quickly. Will go back to have more sessions in the future.
