Hi, my name is Justin and I've been teaching swim lessons for over four years. Most of my students have been between the ages of 1 and 12. I have also worked with Plano ISD as a paraprofessional (a special education assistant). I have a specialty in working with kids with Autism.

Hi! Im the mother of two college students, a writer and content developer, and I love to teach little ones and adults to swim! I have strong experience providing accommodations and adaptive learning environments for people with special needs. So, I use motivation, encouragement, and celebration to help all swimmers reach their goals! My swim journey began with my own parents instilling a love for swimming in me and my big sister. I translated that into teaching both of my kids to swim when they were toddlers, as well as teaching for a local swim school. Now, I enjoy teaching water safety and swimming to you and your family!

Certification N/A

Hi, Im Coach Todd! I have been coaching swimming since October 1998, as well as working with triathletes. I have coached young childrens swimming exclusively since October 2015. I have coached people as old as 70+ years and as young as four years old. I have seen a lot in my days, and that has helped me identify what people need when it comes to proper swimming technique! And make no mistake, technique is everything. Water is almost 800 times denser than air, so your every movement needs to be with the least resistance possible, and I can show you that! I look forward to helping you on your journey to become a swimmer or a better swimmer!
