About
I am a Certified Swim Instructor with 20 years experience. I used to be a professional swimmer too. I have a special bond and conection with kids and that allow me to get their trust quickly. I like to include some games between instruction and work with safety habits too that in the future will avoid an injury. Every student that takes lessons with me, grows and gains self confidence in the water.

Vilma worked very well with my Grandson. He always looked forward to her coming. She was an amazing teacher. My Grandson swims well now and is not afraid of the “deep end” or jumping into the “deep end.” I would highy recommend Vilma, and so would my Grandson!

Vilma is great with my daughter! She is patient and consistent with her. My daughter loves her and has fun all while learning to swim safely. She can’t wait to see her for her lessons and gets excited every time.

Vilma is the ultimate professional and quickly assessed our children ski level and adapted her teaching style according to their needs. Tremendous progress and growth in just a short amount of time. The kids loved her and felt proud of their accomplishments!

Vilma is the ultimate swim coach. Her approach is so kind and gentle but she makes kids work hard. My littlest child didn’t like the water and cried the first lesson but now jumps for joy when he gets a lesson with Vilma. She builds trust with the children so lessons are so enjoyable.

Vilma was great with my son. We noticed a significant improvement with his swimming skills with just 4 lessons. She helped him to not be scared of the water and provided him with the skills he needed to become a better swimmer. Also, we noticed the confidence he gained from her lessons. Thanks so much Vilma!
