Our kids loved their lesson with Faith. In the first class they already conquered more fears than they had in all of their swimming lessons so far - she was really fun, calm and motivating. Excited to have more lessons with her

My boys have absolutely loved their time with Faith! She makes each lesson fun and informative, and the kids learn so much in just the one hour. Their swimming skills have improved dramatically and they can't wait for their next lesson!

Faith knows what she's doing when it comes to being a mermaid. I've always wanted to try it out and had so much fun learning the ways of a mermaid. She was so patient with me while I blubbered my way through the lesson and I highly recommend booking a lesson with her if you or your little ones want to give it a go and try something new! :)

Faith is an excellent coach. My 4-year-old daughter loved taking lessons from her because she makes swimming an enjoyable experience.

So much patience for a rowdy toddler. Jesse can’t wait to go back and has talked non stop about his swimming teacher!! Thank you Faith!

About Faith W.

I've worked in the aquatic industry since 2014 and have been with Propel for 8 years. I'm 5ft tall, approachable, friendly, and fun - I've even worked as a lifeguard at Walt Disney World! What sets me apart is that I'm also an experienced mermaid performer and freediver (AIDA 1 and PADI Advanced Mermaid). I sprinkle in mermaid magic to all lessons!

Teaching philosophy

I believe that the best learning happens when we're having fun, so you will see a balance of games, skill drills and play. This allows for students to get comfortable trying new things in the water with close supervision as well as staying motivated and engaged. My goal is to inspire a love of and confidence in the water rather than make Olympians.

A typical first lesson

Let me know in your lesson notes whether you'd like a mermaid experience or a typical skill-based swimming lesson so I can prepare. I adapt my lessons for each swimmer, including offering mermaid lessons for those who are ready to wear mermaid tails! Please note that strong swimming is a prerequisite to this, but no tail required as I have loaners
