Hi, I'm Owen! I have experience teaching and coaching kids of all levels.

Being a competitive swimmer for 13 years and a coach for 2 years, Im also able to work on more advanced skills (dives, flip turns, stroke form/speed/endurance). Id love to teach your kid any skills that you may want, or I can evaluate them and we can work from there!

For baby and some toddler lessons, parent participation is encouraged for building water comfort. For older children (typically ages 2+), parents are not specifically encouraged to be in the water, as our one-on-one private instruction is designed to build independence. However, we always require a responsible adult to be present on the premises for all lessons with minors. If you have specific preferences or concerns, our team is happy to accommodate them in your registration. We tailor each lesson to your comfort and goals.
