Our Swim: Google Reviews
Lena Sin2024-09-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were so lucky to have Yogie teach our children how to swim during our month in Bali. Over 5 lessons, I watched my kids, aged 8 and 9, improve dramatically. Yogie is so patient, relaxed and fun yet deceptively good at teaching the kids good technique. He really understands the needs of each individual child, and I believe it’s due to this that they learned quickly. My children loved swimming lessons with Yogie and we even had other causal observers comment on how great he was with the kids. He exudes good energy! We stayed in 4 different areas in Bali and he was able to come to each one and was always punctual. I cannot recommend Yogie enough!

We were very happy with Yogi’s approach - being very friendly, patient and making each lesson fun. Our son was always looking forward to the next session, since he made a big effort to make lessons fun. He always comfortable in his company - able to trust him to tackle his insecurities in water. Yogi always come on time (most of the time 10mins before the lesson start to set it up) and take time after the class to provide progress update. Our son improved significantly from just 5 classes with Yogi. From not being able to even dip his head into the water to be able to swim with head down and floa! We were so glad to find Yogi! Next time in Bali we wouldn’t hesitate to book him again and recommend him to others. Thanks Yogi! Stephy2024-07-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the pleasure of having Mr. Yogi teach our 3 and 4-year-old children how to swim, and we couldn't be happier with the private lessons experience. Mr. Yogi was incredibly professional, patient, and punctual - always arriving on time for each lesson. He provided us with daily feedback on our kids' progress, along with helpful exercises to practice during the week to keep improving their skills. Mr. Yogi's techniques with children are outstanding. He has a wonderful way of speaking to and teaching young kids that kept our girls engaged and excited for each class. They loved having their lessons with him, especially because he brought along fun water toys and tools. Thanks to Mr. Yogi, our daughters' confidence in the water has significantly improved. They learned how to float, kick, and even get their faces in the water—all essential skills for young swimmers. We would absolutely recommend Mr. Yogi. He is both professional and fun, making swimming lessons a wonderful experience for our children. Nadine Reissig2024-03-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked Yogi as a swim teacher for our two little ones (almost 3yo and 3,5yo). He was an absolute delight and was very patient with our very playful kids! We loved having him teaching us parents what we can do with kids under 4 to improve safety in the water and lay the foundation for further swimming classes! Our kids learned to use a strong kick of the legs, blowing bubbles and submerging the face in the water. We practiced getting out of the water by safely climbing out. It was so much fun for all. Of us! He was always on time, our kids liked him from the start and although they sometimes behaved like typical 3yolds he was so calm and patient with them! We would recommend his service to everyone ☺️👍🏻 Hoang Vu Mai2023-10-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was great experience to have Yogi as our kids swimming instructor during our stay in Bali. He was so attentive to the kids, with great teaching methodology, so the kids enjoyed the lessons a lot. The kids always looked forward to the lesson. Their swimming technique improved a lot just after few lessons. They had been learning swimming in Singapore for months prior to Bali trip but I felt the private session with Yogi help them to progress much faster. He didn’t mind to go extra mile, stayed half an hour time after the kids’ lessons to give me the feedbacks and points to improve my technique as well. I highly recommend Yogi for his teaching expertise and great personality.
Our Mission: Water Safety for Life
Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death. Equip yourself or your loved ones with the knowledge and skills to stay safe in and around water. Our lessons in our swim school Bali don’t only teach essential swimming techniques, but also instill critical water safety habits, helping both children and adults stay safe while enjoying the water.
This is more than just learning a sport; it is a matter of public health and survival.
Why We Exist: The Drowning Crisis in Indonesia
As an archipelagic nation, Indonesia has a profound connection to water, yet it faces a significant challenge with water safety. This is why our school was founded: to actively combat this preventable tragedy by turning passive water exposure into active water competence.
Indonesia Drowning Data (2005–2019)
Data from the Global Burden of Disease Study highlights the severe risk:
Total Deaths: An estimated 94,035 unintentional drowning deaths occurred in Indonesia between 2005 and 2019.
Most Vulnerable Age Group: The highest risk is consistently among children under 5 years old, with an average annual mortality rate of 9.67 per 100,000 population.
A Preventable Risk: Drowning is a leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide, and while the mortality rate in Indonesia showed a declining trend from 3.35 per 100,000 in 2005 to 1.93 per 100,000 in 2019, the sheer volume of deaths means that every lesson taught is a potential life saved.
Our Goal: To directly reduce these numbers by creating a safety-first community right here in Bali.
