Hello! My name is Nick McDonald, and I have been a swim coach for 4+ years for ages 18 months old - adults. I was a member of a competitive swim team for 13 years of my youth, and transitioned to coaching, to give back the wonderful experience I had, to the next generation.

Hi there! My name is Stefani. I've been a swim instructor on and off for the past 5 years & I have taught various ages from 12 months to adulthood. I am the oldest of six boys and a girl and I have taught them all I know. Becoming an instructor helped solidify my skills but also helped brush up my sibling's knowledge as well.

Trivonne Y
Lakewood, California 90715
Hi! My name is Trivonne. Ive been around the aquatics community for 11+ years. When I was 8, I joined a competitive swim team and quickly found a love for the water and sport. In 2021, I started teaching swim lessons and in 2023 I transitioned into coaching as well. Over the past 3 years Ive been fortunate enough to have taught ages ranging from 2-adult, special needs, and beginners-swim team. I believe that learning how to swim can be fun and exciting, not just a life lesson. I have learned that every kid has their own unique way of learning and my goal is to adapt to their specific needs. Whether youre interested in only learning water safety skills to becoming a competitive swimmer, I am happy to assist you!
Jesse A

My name is Jesse and I began swimming when I was 4 and by 5 years old I was on the swim and water polo team! It revolutionized my life, boosting my confidence, and it taught me the significance of hard work. Later on I was a certified lifeguard and wanting to help more people, I worked my way to become a certified Water Safety Instructor through the American Red Cross. My goal is to teach as many people as I can to swim so they too can experience all the exciting opportunities that come with it!
