About Katherine L.

I'm Katherine, and I've been a lifeguard and swim instructor for 10 years. What drives me most is watching people improve and reach their goals. I hold a certification as a Therapeutic Recreational Therapist Specialist, and I'm privileged to work with a wide range of individuals, including those with disabilities or neurodiversity.

Teaching philosophy

I love helping people of all ages feel safe, confident, and excited in the water. As a certified Therapeutic Recreational Therapist Specialist, I have experience working with individuals of all abilities, including those who are neurodiverse or have disabilities, and I bring that knowledge into every one-on-one lesson.

A typical first lesson

Your child’s first swim lesson is fun, engaging, and focused on safety from the very start. I begin by getting to know your child and assessing their comfort and skill level in the water. Water safety and pool rules come first so every child learns how to be safe and aware around the pool. From there, we build skills through fun games, songs, play
