Aaron Suarez

Assistant Coach - Pines

aaron.suarez0718@gmail.com

My name is Aaron, I’m a swim instructor and have been a competitive swimmer for several years. I have worked for the YMCA for about 3 years. In my free time, I enjoy long-distance running for miles at a time and weight lifting in the gym. I currently hold the record for the longest distance swim of 10,025 yards at the Pembroke Pines Aquatic Center. I always look forward to teaching my classes and improving my swimmers’ strokes, endurance, and abilities.

Watching swimmers reach their potential and their goals is what keeps Coach Gabe aspired and motivated to be one of the best coaches in the swimming community because of his persistence in what he does and how he does it, his drive and care of his swimmers taking the next level steps physically, mentally and emotionally. Ultimately pushing swimmers to become the best version of themselves
