My family "grew up at the pool". We all swam competitively In High School and lifeguarded throughout high school and college. In my 20s I learned I love working with kids and pursued and Education degree from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. This naturally led to my career in teaching swimming and I began giving private lessons even as a teenager. Since then, I have taught swimming lessons p
eriodically over the last 25 years, while also raising 4 kids, working at Christ Presbyterian Church and starting a Life Coaching Company! I LOVE teaching kids to swim! It is not only my hobby but my passion. I think I get just as excited as they do when they swim on their own! I would love the opportunity to work with your child this summer! All lessons are given in a backyard private pool. Parents may drop off or stay and watch. Siblings are allowed in the water if parent is supervising. I work with ALL LEVELS of swimmers. Students do not need any prior experience. I teach all ages! 6 months and older- adults included! Lessons include water safety as well as all four competitive strokes and a basic front dive. The pool is kept at 86 degrees. The shallow end begins at 3 feet with a large staircase entry. The deepest part of the pool is 9 feet.
