About
I am a Red Cross Certified Water Safety Instructor and Lifegaurd with CPR and First Aid certifications. I began teaching swim lessons in 1994 and have taught children from 6 months to 17 years as well as adults.
I moved to Boynton Beach at the end of 2018 and am now offering lessons to all ages in and around Boynton Beach.
I offer parent/child lessons for ages 6 months to 2 years; helping children and parents both become more safe and comfortable in the water.
Ages 2-5 I teach the beginning fundamentals of swimming and water safety. Children learn about beginning breathing, floating, leg and arm actions and more.
Ages 6-16 I help children develop more advanced skills building on their exisitng foundation leading to the ability to pursue competitive swimming, junior guards or other aquatic programs
For adults I can customize any combination of programs to help achieve swimming and water safety goals of your choice.
With consistent lessons and practice time I can help nearly anyone learn the front crawl, back crawl, breast stroke, elementary back stroke, butterfly as well as other less common strokes including the trudgen, the survival stroke, sculliying and others. Additionally, I can teach diving at any age and skill level to become advanced enough for high springboard diving platform diving, competitive platform entries and more.
I’m passionate about seeing my students gain skills and confidence in and around the water.
