I was lucky enough to have parents who made swimming a priority. My mom took me to swim lessons at the local YMCA starting when I was 6 months old, and I havent stopped loving the water. I swam on the junior swim team and was a junior lifeguard and swim instructor as a teen at my local pool. As an adult, Ive competed in triathlons in the past, but what I love most is snorkeling, open-water swimming, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. I believe that having a good foundation in swimming opens up so many different opportunities in many outdoor activities, and Im excited to open those doors for my students.

Hello, my name is Emery, and I have been teaching swimming and diving since October 2003. I teach beginners to advanced students, from ages 3 years to adults, including those on the Autism spectrum. I spent 5 years teaching for the San Fernando Parks & Rec. I was a lifeguard and swim instructor there, and an assistant coach to the swim team for 2 years. I love the joy that my swim students get after they finally learn to swim on their own. The confidence they gain is enormous, and that will carry on for the rest of their lives. Thank you.

Sunsational Vetted Since 2025
Im the fun-loving teacher that every student enjoys and loves to work with! I love teaching children as I can easily connect with them to properly help them reach their swimming potential. Ive worked with hundreds and hundreds of students from infants to older adults, including students on the autism spectrum. With more than 10 years of swim instructor and lifeguard experience, I know how to help each student as best as I can from the experience Ive gained over the years from various aquatic programs. I first learned to swim as a child after an incident at the pool, which then gave me such a love for the water once I learned how to swim. My goal is to make sure I continue to pass on the gift of swimming to as many people as possible to ensure the water safety of everyone.
