Hi, my name is Sarah and I have been teaching swim lessons for 15+ years to children 6 months and older as well as adults. This includes children and adults with special needs or a fear of the water. I have worked with children for 15+ years as a paraeducator, nanny, volunteer, and swim coach. I have a degree in kinesiology and human development and am working on my Masters.

Corey S
Mill Creek, Washington 98012
Hi everyone! My name is Corey. Ive swam competitively for WEST Coast Aquatics and Golds Aquatics for almost ten years. At the age of 16 I started teaching group lessons and private lessons to children of all ages.
After about 5 years of lessons, I started my job as the assistant coach of North Creek High Schools swim teams. I was then promoted to head coach and Ive been there for 4 years.
I love coaching swimming, both one on one with a kid in the water or from the pool deck with a large group.
Whether your child wants to learn how to be safe at a pool party or start their journey into competitive swimming, I would be overjoyed to be a part of their learning process.

My swim journey began in high school, where I swam for 4 years and was captain of the team for 3 of them. During that time I began teaching swim lessons to kids from 12months old all the way up to adults while lifeguarding at the Kent-Meridian pool, and I did that for 4years. I have an amazing ability to swim and teach. I wish to share all my knowledge & swim wisdom with my students to help everyone be comfortable, & conquer in the water. Cant wait to build your swimming abilities.
