The Club de Veleros Barlovento is a Yacht Club located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I worked there since 2015 until 2023 (except for 2021), in this years I coached almost every class.
I began working with a beginner's program, developed in collaboration with the local community, aimed at providing free sailing lessons to children, particularly those attending public schools. Over the years, I have introduced over 200 children to sailing. We organized numerous promotional activities to encourage more participation in the sport, including demonstrations at swimming pools and visits to schools.
Additionally, I worked with the racing team of Optis and 420 helping the coaches whenever they needed. In 2022 I got in charge of the Opti Race Team, I designed the curriculum, training plan and the logistic for all the regattas. Between January 2022 and September 2023 sailors from the team were part of almost every National Team: they won in 2022 and 2023 the Optimist North American Nations Cup (Team Racing) and the 2022 African Championship (both fleet and team racing), the team finished second in the Team Racing Nationals.
