How did Aquaskills start?

Adrian Ginju - Lori PailetIn 2004 Adrian Ginju met Lori Pailet and they both became swimming companions. One day they came up with the idea to start a swim school and named it Aquaskills.
Almost immediately the response was viral because the demand was so high and the training so superior there was no comparison.
Aquaskills has been actively conducting classes ever since.

Adrian Ginju's Biography

Adrian was born in 1959 in a small village in Sibiu, Romania. When Adrian was 5 years old he joined the village swim team.
He had a dream to teach people how to swim which inspired Aquaskills.
As a child daily rigorous training and devotion made Adrian qualify for the Romanian Olympic Swim Team.
Adrian trained at the 23rd August Olympic Camp in Romania at the same time as other world class athletes.
Adrian’s expertise and legacy is at the foundation of Aquaskills method.

News About Aquaskills

Our Philosophy

One acquires discipline, coordination, balance and harmony while swimming. Moving in the water is like sculpting and dancing as well as a meditation. We believe in an individualistic approach that comes with intuition as well as skillful instruction. Swimming is a life skill that will not only make a child or adult safe in the water, but will open doors to a plethora of outdoor water sports from sailing to scuba diving, and doing it safely. We are confident that everyone can learn to swim and its all about the creative approach of the instructors, but fear not everyone is possible to teach, and where there is a will there is a way.

Our Mission

We are committed to providing the Best Swimming Lessons in New York City, and Beyond! Your safety in the water is always our top priority. We always observe the standard Water Safety Protocols while teaching you the perfect swim strokes!
