Ms. Keila's Youth/PreSchool Swim Lessons
About
I have been swimming since I was a little nugget and have 15+ years of swimming/swim tech experience. I grew up swimming on summer league and my high school swim team. After graduation, I had several offers for collegiate swimming and competed as a collegiate athlete for the swim team at the university I attended. I've had experience as a teacher for seen years and have taught for swim teams, a non-profit organization and other companies. I'm certified as a Swim Technique, Swim Team Coach and Insturcot through the USA YMCA and as LIFE TIME Certified Swim Instructor and have taught all age groups.
Teaching an important life-lesson and that swimming can be a fun sport and vital life skill to have!
