SwimSwim lessons with Cassandra C.

What you can expect in our class From the beginning, we will focus on individual goal setting, all within the aquatics framework. I will provide you clear progress markers and give the day-to-day feedback you need for each skill and objective. Whether your lesson concerns general comfort in and around water, advancing safety skills, or practicing stroke progressions to improve your fitness and technique, I will tailor lessons to your individual needs. About Me: My connection with swimming has been ingrained since childhood having grown up around water. More recently witnessing my son's progress in Parent & Tot lessons has reignited my desire to teach water safety. I enjoyed the instructor of that class, and participating in these lessons as a parent sparked a renewed enthusiasm to work in Aquatics which I did from 2004-2008. I worked as a Water Safety Instructor, Lifesaving Instructor, and Swimming instructor during those years, as well as performing as a Lifeguard. I especially enjoy teaching children how to feel comfortable in the water and get familiar with the strokes. My goal with children is that they can get excited about the water while being safe. I also hope they can imagine themselves being part of Aquatics life-long: there are so many programs up into adulthood! For adults, I also have a Masters's degree in Leadership, focused on guiding and facilitating individuals and groups. While this wasn't aquatics-focused, it gives me the ability to get right into the heart of a matter and also help you find yourself in the water again, and especially enjoy it.
