Amesbury, Massachusetts 01913

Certification N/A

Hello, my name is Cymantha, and I am so excited to teach your kids how to swim! Growing up, I swam competitively from 3rd grade all through college. I truly believe every person should know how to swim, as it is a life-saving skill. In my experience, I have taught kids ages 2-16 swimming lessons. I love working with kids who are completely new to swimming, as well as kids who want to improve their strokes to become stronger swimmers.

Certification N/A

Hi, I'm Gina with over 40 years of experience teaching swim lessons. I swam and dove competitively as a child; I was a lifeguard for 5 years and a water aerobics instructor for 5 years. I have a passion for sharing my love of the water with others. I enjoy working with all ages and skill levels, from beginners learning water safety to more advanced swimmers refining their strokes. My teaching style is all about creating a fun, supportive, and positive learning environment where students feel confident and motivated to improve. I believe that swimming is a valuable life skill, and I'm dedicated to helping my students become safe and proficient swimmers.

Frances (Teddi) D.

Salem, MA 01970

Sunsational Certified Since 2020

My name is Teddi DiCanio. Living along the coast, I spend time in the ocean, when not in a pool teaching swimming. For about twenty years, I have taught swimming to people of all ages and ability levels. One of my important skills as a teacher is the ability to break actions (and ideas) into component parts to work on. I have a master's in education and when not teaching I may be writing, teaching voice, or performing intermittently as a storyteller.
