ROBINPATTAYA Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hi all, I have a stepdaughter approaching 9yo, I am looking for swimming lessons & tennis lessons in the Pattaya area, near the darkside preferably. Are there recognised schools for either or is it a case of a private teacher 1 on 1 with the child. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed because most people on the Dark side...would probably know of it, especially if they have been to Outlet Mall on a weekend evening. Do you know where it is Pat....I assume you do. Maybe you could give him better directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went there on Sunday night & it was like being in Moscow, not because of the Russians tourists but because it was soooo cold. Thanks for the assistance to those who were able to help, I will PM those who have info & move forward. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gforsi Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I could provide swimming lessons if demand is still present. I am a German guy below 30y and have been a semi-professional swimmer in Germany for years (e.g. German Nationals). I am located on the dark side, Sith Lord ;-), close to Siam Country Club.

changnaam Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 gforsi, where do your swimming here? I am a bit older and I am sure not as fit as you but also used to be a swimmer at national level in the UK. Would be great to get a group together for training once or twice a week. Have you thought about doing that? Would be prepared to pay if we could find a decent 25m pool. The pool in our village is a good size but not really where you would want to spend longer that 10 minutes !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gforsi Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 changnaam, unfortunately I am not doing any swimming at the moment due to the lack of decent sized pools ;-) I thought about the pool at school 11 here in pattaya. I think it has a 25m or even 50m one. However, I do not know if it is public. Futher, I read stories about a concrete company right next to the school polluting the air with concrete dust. The pupils in school have to wear masks ( Acutally I dont want to inhale that on a regularly basis. Maybe there is a hotel or something with a 25m pool that would be willing to let us swim. But I do not know of any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericg1953 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Hi Robin, I sent you a pm with the contact info for a local tennis academy here that is training kids your daughters age. They have had a successful academy in Lampang for many years and have produced many tournament level players and are great at developing beginners as well. The owner was the thai jr national champion and he teaches with his father and many qualified assistants. They are good people with a great vision. Teaching out of Royal Cliff Hotel in Prantunmak as well as Inter Club on the darkside Edited June 3, 2014 by ericg1953 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
