kolawoleibukun2:
oga, am not a kid and I have seen professional coaches assault kids many times. I have kids of my own and I know that it is wise to let other parents know that the only safe place for their kids is home. the fact that you set your table out to make a profit for yourself does not give you the right to misinform parents.
So, just because you have seen professional coaches assault kids mean all professional coaches are bad? Just listen to yourself...how dumb is it? and how have I misinformed parents about my service? Did you even bother going to my profile and see the photo of kids I took in swimming with the trophy we won in a swimming competition? If i were a bad coach do you think parents would trust me with their kids? Besides, those kids came with their parent....Did you read the part I said contact me and I gave my phone number? As a parent, won't you call to ask questions before releasing your kids to a total stranger? Have you done that before jumping into conclusion?

For your information, we dont allow kids come alone, we make sure they come with their parents or guardian, if you had called for enquiries you could have gotten more information and not just go about spoiling people's business and think God will be happy with you.

simply speak on the quality of services that you offer but do not fool anyone into thinking that professional coaches are free from any history of rape or assaults.
Can you please point out were I said my service is free?

I am not here to sell a product or disparage anyone or his product. I come to speak my truth and nothing less.
It is obvious you already set out to disparage my service without any justification whatsoever and like I said earlier I hand you over to God for judgement.

for sure na God go judge me before and I did not judge anybody. saying that the safest place for a child is home is not judgment. when you sell your product next time you should use that as a selling point.
Your first post doesn't look like a post that talks about safety, you can talk about safety without calling all professionals bad names just because of the experience with someone, you went all out to disparage someone's service you know nothing about.

Who told you home is the safest place?...do you know what this kids do or where they visit at home while their parents are at work? It is because of this we have summer camps were parents can send them to to get them occupied.

God is always my selling point and will always be my selling point and I am very sure he will visit you, He already promised he will curse whoever curses me and bless whoever blesses me...you already picked were he will visit except you apologize for your actions.


and to be incongruous, if you are truly a professional coach you should have paid for an advert and attach your website and business registration number. you will not come to nairaland comment section to delude innocent parents. judge yourself by yourself where is professionalism when you come on this sections to lure parents to give you their kids cos you are a professional.
You know nothing about marketing, you should be ashamed for displaying your ignorance in public. Have you heard of word-of-mouth marketing? Its a free kind of marketing campaign and top companies that spend millions in advertisement also do...Just because a business advertises its business on a free platform doesn't makes it a bad business, it is for the consumer to make proper findings before doing business.

Subsequently, When MMM came to Nigeria their adverts were all over print and electronic media, even churches advertised there business for them, and we all know it ended up being a ponzi scheme. So, would you now say because they spent huge money on their marketing campaign makes them a legitimate business, how dumb to even reason like this?

I have not come to lure parents, I have committed no crime in taking advantage of a free platform to advertise my services, big and legitimate businesses also do what I do...this is me being smart with my spendings by advertising my service on a free platform, if you have so much money to throw away that's your business.

Next time do not condemn another to make yourself appealing. just directly advertize yourself.
business advice: meet a graphic artist to make a quality business card for you that contains all the catchy phrases and genuine information (website, bus name and reg no, address, contact, and a link to a reputable company if possible etc.)
Who told you fake businesses dont use fake addresses? So, you judge a business by catchy phrases, beautiful business cards and websites...no wonder people like you get duped because instead of making genuine enquiries you just jump into conclusion.

For your information, I was specific about Lagos residents because that's where my business is based, In my kind of business, we offer our service to customer location, we either train them in their HOMES for those with swimming pool in their houses, do you know some people have swimming pool in their houses? Yes they do...or we go to their preferred public pool to train them, and of course the kids must come with someone (either their parent or a guardian)

i wish you all the best in your business. try to keep the standard and you will have nothing to worry about.
I can assure you, I have absolutely nothing to worry about...I have great clients all over Lagos, I am proud and happy to see the beautiful smiles on the faces of the kids after their lessons knowing they have just learnt a life saving skill.

I am still warming up for the task ahead, Lagos is surrounded by water and it is sad that most people living in Lagos can't swim, you hear people drown just because they can't swim. My mission is to teach as many people in Lagos a I could... Teaching someone how to swim is saving his/her life for any unforseen circumstances with water. I am proud of my work.

I wish you what you wish others.

that is if the gay or rapist is not in the summer camp.
many coaches and trainers have been convicted of rape and assault.
nowhere safe pass home oh. if u get money build the poor in your home for your kids. or follow them to the pool and teach them yourself.
How would you feel if someone just walk into your place of work and start telling people to stop patronizing you because everybody doing your job is bad without even getting to know you? how would you feel? I hand you over to God for judgement.

You should be wise enough not to judge people without even getting to know them. We have good and bad people in all professions, not everyone is bad.

Many school teachers have also been convicted of rape and assault, does that mean you should stop your kids from going to school?

Just because people die in plane crashes doesn't mean we should stop flying.

This is the more reason you allow ONLY professional swimming coaches train your kids.

PropertiesAdvice For A Low-Budget Swimming Pool In Nigeria by SwimmingCoach(op):
Dream Pool at a low budget

Just the thought of packing up the swimsuits, water wings, sunscreen, towels, change of clothes and loading the kids in the car to drive to the local pool or beach makes you want to find an alternative to beating the heat. Wouldn’t it be nice to skip all of that hassle, open the back door and enjoy your own backyard paradise?

Many people think that pool ownership (Construction, Maintenance and Repair of Swimming Pool in Nigeria) is out of their reach. But what they don’t realize is that the cost of pool ownership is more affordable than ever. We’ve come up with a few ways that can help reduce the initial cost while still helping you achieve the dream of ownership.

Scale Down

When considering your pool, remember that bigger is not always better. It is possible to scale down the size of your pool without sacrificing the purpose – whether that be relaxation, pool parties, recreation, kids splashing, etc. Believe me, no child has ever said, “I don’t want to play in this pool because it’s too small!” Unless you are planning to swim 25’ laps, consider making the pool smaller in scale, which will incur less materials, construction costs and eventually maintenance.

Features are Worth the Wait

Another way to be able to build the pool of your dreams is to wait on some common features. If you try to add many features on the front end, your initial cost will be higher. Keep in mind to plumb for these eventual features such as slides, fountains, spillover waterfalls. You can add those over time – which will reduce your initial cost.

Just like waiting to add water features later, you can also add a pool heater down the road. If you live in a warmer climate, you should be able to use your pool most of the year. The addition of a heater can make your pool accessible year-round, but it’s not a necessity at first. By waiting, you may also be able to gauge how much you would use a heater or even if it’s necessary at all.

Start Small

Landscaping and patio additions make your backyard pool area complete. If you want to save some money, you can add a small pool decking area at first then add to it over time. This also is the case for other landscape additions like lighting, pavers, outdoor kitchens and fireplaces.

Consider an Above Ground

If you want to keep the cost low for your swimming pool but would like most of the available features, don’t forget to check out all of the features that an above ground pool can offer. Not only are large sizes available, but they can be installed and ready to swim within two days.

Remember, proper planning is the key to your dream backyard. Hopefully some of these tips can help steer you in the right direction when planning your budget-friendly swimming pool.

Sports11 Reasons Why Swimming Lesson Is So Important For Adults And Kids. by SwimmingCoach(op):
Are you curious about the benefits of water exercise? Ever ask yourself, “Why swim?” Well, look no further! Below are some answers to that question!

Why is exercise IN the water better than OUT of the water?

1. Buoyancy: This water property allows people to do exercises that are difficult on land. 90 % of your body is buoyant when in the water up to your neck, so you are not hitting the floor as hard as you would on land. No pounding or jarring!

2. Resistance: There is continual resistance to every move you make. The water offers 12% – 14% more resistance than when you exercise on land. Resistance does not allow for sudden body movements.

3. Cooling Effects: Water disperses heat more efficiently, so there is less chance of overheating. The water continuously cools the body. Exercise in the water is cooler and more comfortable than it is on land.

Why do people exercise in the water?

4. Fitness: Getting or keeping in shape. Remember that you cannot just waddle back and expect great results. Improving your fitness depends on how much energy you use.

5. Therapeutic: Helping people recover from accidents and sickness. Combating the aging process.

6. Social: Meeting and being with other people. You can talk to others as you water exercise. Workout facing your partner or side-by-side. Meet new people, too!

7. Stress Release: Gives you a chance to just relax and forget about work, problems, and other things.

8. Fun: Enjoying the diversion. Water exercise in a playful way and don’t worry about being serious! Laugh and enjoy it! Water exercise is fun!

How can water exercise help the participants?

9. Physical Benefits

- Improved flexibility and strength
- Builds up endurance

10. Social Benefits

11. Psychological Benefits

What exercise options are there in the water?

Water Walking: Moving forward, backward, and sideward, using regular, short, quick, or long steps, in waist-deep or chest-deep water

Water Aerobics: Full body rhythmic exercises conducted in shallow and/or deep water for 20 minutes or more, designed to provide cardiovascular benefits

Water Toning/Strength Toning: Upper and lower body moves designed to strengthen, firm, and sculpt the muscles by using the resistnace of the water and/or water exercise equipment.

Flexibility Training: Large movements using each body part’s full range of motion, along with full body stretches.

Water Therapy & Rehabilitation: Procedures in the water designed and implemented for special clinical purposes.

Water Yoga & Relaxation: Gentle, easy-flowing moves using the water as a relaxation medium.

Deep Water Running: Simulating land running in the water depth where the feet do not touch the bottom of the pool. Flotation devices are used. Various running styles, drills, and methods can be used

Wall Exercise (Deep or Shallow): Using the pool wall for support to isolate various body parts.

Water Fitness Products: Professional products designed and manufactured specifically for water fitness activities – for toning, strengthening, and endurance work. Such products add variety to the class, motivate students, and create additional resistance and support.

Lap Swimming: If the individual is a proficient swimmer, swimming back and forth using various swimming strokes is a possibility. However, we suggest that lap swimmers also consider other forms of water exercise in addition to lap swimming.
