Jacob O.
Austin, Texas 78726
Certification N/A
I was one of those kids who was afraid of the water and didnt know how to swim until my teenage years, when I fell in love with it. Since then, I have always been the last to get out of the pool. Later in life, I started working as a swim instructor and quickly realized that my past fears gave me a unique opportunity to form a strong bond with kids and adults of all ages struggling with their own fears of the water, just like I was. Im able to empathize and explain things to students in a way that made them truly understand things that they werent previously able to before, since I knew exactly where they were coming from. I love working with anybody just starting out and those wanting to improve competition strokes alike!

Our core service is providing private, at-home swim lessons. Your trained instructor travels to your home pool, community pool or aquatic facility anywhere in Leander or across Central Texas. If you don't have a pool, our instructors are happy to meet you at any safe, local pool of your choosing.

Our instructors have a minimum of 2 seasons of teaching experience before being certified. Many also have specialized experience working with infants, toddlers, special needs learners, or adults overcoming fear of water.

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.
