Integrated Swimming Program (ISP)
We are proud to announce our new swimming program for the community, which will be available in the upcoming month. Our services will be provided in different languages that will encourage individuals with little knowledge of English to take part in the Canadian Red Cross swimming programs. We provide instructors with a variety of racial backgrounds that can connect well with their students. It is our goal to prevent language from being a limitation to the people in our community. Our instructors fluently speak their mother languages and will provide the best services to their students.
Another advantage of our program parallels our goal: which is to improve the English of our students as well as their physical well being. Our educated instructors will help their students reach their maximum potential in both communication and physical skills. This is achieved by having different practices and homework assignments for the students that will be done in both English and their mother language. According to the government, three different races makeup a vast majority of our newcomer’s community. The three groups are from the following countries: 1. Iran 2. China 3. Korea. There will be different levels of courses offered in these languages. Upon request, we can offer our services in other languages as well. Details about the registration and location of our programs will shortly be available on our website.

Diana my instructor was the best! Very knowledgeable, sensible and very considerate when discussing sensitive topics. She made the 8-hour course very engaging and easy to adapt. Answered all questions with well-researched knowledge. Took my recertification course with her and it was honestly better than the first one – that I feel like I absorbed first aid knowledge and the values of Red Cross! Would love to take her class again!!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Kayla! 🎉 We agree, Diana is wonderful at guiding students and we are so glad she handled those sensitive topics with such consideration during your Red Cross certification class in North York.

I recently completed my Basic Life Support (BLS) course at Coast2Coast First Aid & Aquatics, and I had a great experience. The course was well organized, informative, and very engaging.
Our instructor, Dimitrih Lafleur, was highly knowledgeable, confident, and easy to understand. He spoke clearly and ensured everyone could follow along. What I appreciated most was the hands-on training and practical demonstrations, which helped build my confidence in performing life-saving skills. He took the time to answer questions and made sure every participant understood the material before moving on.
I would highly recommend this training center and instructor to anyone looking to complete their BLS certification in a supportive and professional learning environment.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Nitu! 🎉 We agree, Dimitrih Lafleur is wonderful at providing hands-on training and making the practical demonstrations so easy to follow.
