❤️ Today, I received this heartwarming review from Caris, and it reminded me why I do what I do. Seeing her daughter not just pass her Gold exam this morning, but smash the timings by 30 seconds, was an incredible moment. 🏊‍♂️💨 I’m so happy for both the parents and the child. They traveled a long way to see me, and that kind of commitment is where success begins. But here’s what I’ve realized: Effort alone is not enough. We often talk about "hard work," but without belief

Confidence Climbing Session with your Buddy Coach Ling @WCP Yesterday was a milestone day for us. We ran a pilot session for our newest programme, and seeing the kids tackle the climbing wall was a powerful reminder of why we do what we do. At Buddy Sports , our mission has always been clear: We help kids become calm, confident, and capable.

As a full-time swimming coach, I’ve always believed that swimming isn’t just about mastering strokes in a pool, it’s about building real confidence in the water.

Trail X Art started during Covid. The idea was simple but powerful, to bring kids outdoors, let them explore nature, observe the world around them, and express those experiences through art. When Covid came, it would have been easy to stop. Kids had to wear masks, and outdoor activities felt uncertain. But we didn’t let that stop us. Instead, we adapted. We still went out on trails. We still paused to notice the small details... the veins on a leaf, the sunlight dancing on wa
