Hello! My name is Chloe Cheevers, a current Division I college swimmer. I have been swimming since February 2015, hence my passion for teaching lessons. I believe water safety is very important, so being able to help is my main goal. I first learned how to swim when I was two years old, and lets just say I did not like the water at that time, so I understand how some kids feel. As time went on, I went from hating the water to getting very excited to swim. My main strokes are breaststroke, freestyle, and IM. I love making sure that my students are comfortable with me and, overall, learn how to be safe in the water. I change the plans based on how ready each student is, so each student has a different plan. I cant wait to teach your kids how to swim!

Hi, Im Matt! Im originally from Maryland and grew up in a swimming family. I swam competitively on a club team and my communitys summer team, where I also discovered my passion for teaching. In high school, I worked in the water with younger swimmers as a junior coach. I continued coaching through college, working my way up to eventually becoming the head assistant coach. Ive coached swimmers ages 4 to 18 and spent a few of those summers giving private lessons to new swimmers. After some time away, Ive jumped back in the water and am excited to return to what I love most teaching. My approach is swimmer-centric because every child learns differently. Im results-driven, but above all, I believe learning to swim should be fun!

Greetings! My name is Fabian Morrisette, and I have a passion for helping everyone, especially the up-and-coming youth, to strive for their greatest potential self. I've always really enjoyed swimming. I swam on the team for my middle school at CHIME, and when I went to high school, I transferred to my local YMCA team. Once I graduated high school, I pursued swimming instruction at the USC Trojan Kids Camp and joined the team as lead swim instructor. Following my experience at USC, I went on to provide in-home respite care for children and adults with special needs, where I sometimes offered swimming lessons and supervision in addition to my caretaking duties.

Hello, Im Leigh Patrick. As a former Australian champion swimmer and surf lifesaver, my love for swimming in the open ocean and pools started early. Having my own children in my 30s made me very grateful for my years of First Aid & CPR training. They were given a structured program for swim safety from 6 to 18 months. This included hands-on instructor pool training, which was a great way to bond with your child and learn new skills. I have been an age manager and support leader for ocean swim competitions and provided swimming pool training since June 2019, ranging from elementary to squad. I have experience working with swim students ages 6 months through adults. Techniques I use include trust building, out-of-pool visual training, shallow water body positioning/breathing, and building confidence lesson by lesson.
