Im 44 and an active duty US Army soldier. Swimming since 1 and yet to stop. At age 14 I was allowed to lifeguard at the community pool. This was my first time where I had a different experience of swimming. I was able to see how people acted differently in water, different methods they used to swim. In my adult life Ive taken the skills I learned going up and applied them with new one during the state patrol academy where I was self life saving measures as well as buddy rescues. These skills all were extremely useful to have known and practice because I was chosen to become a battalion swim instructor in the Army. This is where I took non-swimming (scared) paratroopers and taught them to be confident in water. Taught over 50 adult to swim

A little background: my love for the water was extended beyond the womb to a birthing pool in Coney Island, NYC. If my parents tried to end bath time, I would protest, leaving the bathtub until my skin resembled a bleached prune. At a young age, I joined the NYC Parks Swim Team Club, representing Brooklyn, and was fortunate to sustain a winning record as I later transitioned to junior Olympics and then to the Olympic trials. Along the way, my swim instructors were paramount in helping to shape the person that I am today. Outside of my loving parents, they have been the most influential in instilling in me focus, self-discipline, and a caring nature. They are my heroes, and I long to become for others what they were to me.

My name is Abby, and I am a graduate student at George Washington University. I've been teaching swim lessons since 2015, starting with group lessons before moving to private instruction. I have worked with students ages 6 months and up! One memorable student was a girl who was initially terrified to put her face in the water. By the end of our lessons, she was confidently jumping in and swimming. I still treasure the thank-you card she gave me. Over the years, I've helped children conquer their fear of water, worked with swim team members to refine strokes, and helped adults improve their skills. Seeing my students' pride when they achieve something they once thought impossible is my greatest joy.
