Hi, my name is Chris. I've been teaching for three years, from the age of three months to adults. I have worked with children with learning disabilities and autism (verbal and nonverbal). I have three children myself. I spent nine years in the Marines and went to school at George Washington University, where I earned a degree in International Affairs. I love teaching swim lessons because it is something where the skills are going to benefit and safeguard someone for the rest of their lives.

My strong connection with water and children has deeply influenced my career. From babysitter to in-home nanny, I found my passion for nurturing young minds. As a private swim coach for ages 1 to adults, I enjoy teaching swimming skills and building confidence around water. Since February 2021, I have specialized in swim lessons for children needing extra support. Its rewarding to see breakthroughs, such as children with autism swimming independently after tailored coaching.

I have taught swimming for over 40 years now and I have coached full swim teams of kids of all ages in swimming and water polo.

Hi! Im Vincent, I am an incoming college student studying Mechanical Engineering. During my time in high school, Ive participated in 4 years of competitive water polo and 4 years in competitive swimming. One thing that makes me a great swim teacher is my adaptability for my students. Everyone learns differently at their own level and at the own pace, and Im here to help your student grow through the basic fundamentals, drills and water safety basics to make sure your swimmer is not only more proficient in the water but also confident. Outside of swim, I am currently training for BUD/S, which is a basic training selection to become a Navy SEAL. Current training includes underwater confidence, weight training, endurance running and more.
