Hannah R.
Plano, Texas 75093
Sunsational Vetted Since 2026
Hello! My name is Hannah Reifsnyder. I have been a swim instructor since February 2010. My instruction and knowledge are based on a childhood of competitive swimming through high school. The City of Dallas hired me at 16 years old and threw me into lessons. I taught 8 classes a day, Monday to Friday, for three summers in a row, as well as coached the swim teams. This gave me invaluable experience in adaptive teaching, communication for kids and parents, and a strong emphasis on safety. I moved on to a private institution that allowed me to build a schedule and make a successful living off of swim lessons. This was a 5-8 year job until the facility was sold. The word of mouth from that job provides me clients to this day.
