Hi, my name is Marc and I've been teaching swim lessons for about twenty years with ages 6 months through 60 year olds. I've worked with children for about twenty-five years as an after school counselor and director, summer camp counselor, and substitute teacher. I went to California Lutheran University and got my Masters degree in 2019. I love teaching swimming because I know children and adults will be safe in the water and because there is a lot of joy when people learn how to swim.

Hi, Im Tia! Im a swim instructor with experience working with swimmers of all ages, from toddlers as young as 2 to adults up to 30, and across all skill levels. I recently graduated from California State University, Northridge, with a bachelors degree in Kinesiology, where I was also a student athlete on the womens beach volleyball team. Growing up on a small island, I was surrounded by the ocean and began water sports at a young age, becoming a competitive surfer at nine years old while also teaching others along the way. My background as both a coach and lifelong water athlete has taught me how to create lessons that are engaging, fun, and tailored to each swimmers needs. Most of all, I love making the water a safe and fun place where swimmers can grow their confidence and enjoy every splash!
