## Meet your expert

### My story

Hey, I’m Ujwal. Been coaching for 18 years now, and I still get a kick out of seeing someone conquer the deep end for the first time. I’m big on effort and heart—more than just talent. RLSS India and AUSTSWIM certified, but what matters most to me? Seeing my Ocean Rangers team push limits, win medals, or just swim in the sea with a big grin. That’s what it’s all about.

### My work

- **Swim coaching for all ages**: From infants to adults, I teach everything—learn-to-swim, competitive strokes, and yes, sea swimming lessons too.
- **My way of coaching**: It’s not about fighting water. It’s about feeling it, trusting it, and moving easy. Happy swimmers learn best.
- **Build water confidence**: Most folks start with fear of water. We go slow. Breathe, let go, and step by step, you get there.
- **Mobility and technique**: Beyond basics, we do swimming mobility training, flexibility, and video analysis for fine-tuning strokes.
- **Open water and sea swimming**: Want to swim in the sea? I’ll teach you how to tackle waves, stay safe, and go that extra distance—Aage tak jao thoda.
