I love hearing, "I didn't know I could do that!" It's so cool to see the excitement when students can do something they couldn't before. I especially love it when they overcome their fear of the water. From my first race at 5 years old to lifeguarding as a teen, swimming, and water safety have been a passion of mine. I have experience teaching ages 6 months to 14 years, adults, and students with special needs. I believe fun and trust are important elements in learning to swim.
