🏊‍♂️ We're incredibly proud of one of our swimming teachers, Christian! 🏊‍♂️

Last week, Christian competed at the Swim England National Championships, where he achieved some incredible results:

🥈 Silver medal in the 200m Butterfly with an amazing 6.5-second personal best
🏅 7th place in the 100m Butterfly Final with a 1.5-second personal best
⚡ 1-second personal best in the 50m Butterfly

These achievements are the result of years of commitment, hard work, and determination.

We feel incredibly fortunate that our swimmers get to learn from someone who not only competes at the highest national level but also loves helping the next generation develop their confidence, technique, and enjoyment of swimming.

Congratulations, Christian! Everyone at Alpha Aquatics Academy is so proud of you. 💙💛
