The new Channel 8 TV series, No Limits (泳闯琴关), has drawn many viewers and, at the same time, developed interest in learning to swim for many of Singaporeans. Compared to the previous swimming drama series, The Champion (任我遨游), the plot of No Limits is closer to daily swimming life. The story involves swimming instruction, the swimming school’s affairs, swimming competitions, and other swimming stories that surrounded a swimmer’s life. Viewers will better understand a swimmer’s life after watching this show.
It is also a great breakthrough for Felicia Chin, the female lead of this drama series in terms of her acting skills improving since the last show, The Champion. It’s not just Felicia because all the actresses on this show have put in an effort to learn swimming in order to make their role more believable. For most of the scenes, the actresses were swimming without using a stand-in. Compared to all the previous swimming dramas, this is a great improvement!
There were also some important lessons to learn in this drama, such as “a good swimming instructor doesn’t need to be top swimmer” and “don’t just teach children to swim; teach them to love swimming too.” I believe this will help those who are learning to swim to have a better understanding of what it’s about. Through this show, more people have started to develop their interest in swimming. Some have even signed up for swimming lessons. Especially for ladies swimming class.
Two thumbs up for this highly recommended show! For those who missed this show or live outside Singapore and can’t catch this show, here’s the link to watch it online: http://video.xin.msn.com/watch/video/no-limits-%E6%B3%B3%E9%97%AF%E7%90%B4%E5%85%B3-episode-5/1gqb27alv

can it put to 8.30pm?because it is too late for me to see the show, but it is a very nice show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha, you can watch it from xinmsn. Just follow the link above will do!
By using swimming as the theme for this drama series is really a good idea as the epic swimming in this show is just the coolest. It also enchances our mind and encourages people to exercise more(duh. swim more..) by swimming as it is a really good workout and exercise to keep fit!!
Anyways, i love this show!!
anyone know where yaoyang bought the ring from in episode 16 when yongxin accidentally chanced upon it? its very nice. ;D
You can’t actually watch it from overseas.
Xinmsn will state that the video is not available from the particular location. At least, that’s the case in Australia.
Anone knows what is the real name of the LIU XIN YU… She quite cute leh!
I also enjoyed watching the show No Limits. It is also part of the reason why I started taking up private lady swimming class with a female instructor, from Happy Fish Swim School.
Thanks for your support!
Hope you’ll enjoy swimming!

Found your website and decided to have a quick study, not what a typically do but nice a single. Wonderful to see a blog for the change that isn’t full of spam and rubbish, and really makes some sense. Anyway, good write up.
Whenever I have my swimming lesson(s) or practice, I think of this show, just imagined that I am one of the actresses in the show. Have been 7 months since I started taking up ladies private class from your school. Now can swim breaststroke and freestyle (keeping to right hand side breathing at the moment) at ease, now onto learning the backstroke (with float first). Also learnt a fun stroke called the Mermaid stroke, with dolphin kick, and breaststroke arms.
