Learn to swim with an experienced female instructor! I have proudly been teaching swim lessons for over 20 years in Toronto under both the Red Cross and Lifesaving Society programs. I am also a certified Lifesaving Instructor (Bronze levels, First Aid and CPR instructor), National Lifeguard Instructor Trainer, Swim Instructor Trainer, Examiner and Aquatic Supervisor. I am passionate about swimming and love training all ages, from infant to senior, and all skill levels, from no experience being in water to competitive swim training. Whether you are fearful or love the water, I have the experience needed to help you flourish! Learning to swim is an essential life skill at any age, it is never too late learn! As a mother and avid swimmer, my goal is to instill a life-long relationship with the water for swimmers by providing high quality, developmentally sound swimming instruction in a safe and fun environment. There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing the daily improvements in my swimmers! Cut the learning curve in half! Learn to swim or refine your strokes much faster in less lessons and get the best value for your money: Individualized lesson plans are created based on each swimmer’s comfort, ability, learning style and goals for the best learning experience possible. Lessons are taught using a progression technique, with skills being broken down into simple, small steps and introduced with an element of skill and fun. During the lesson I am in the water with you to ensure a smooth learning process, this hands-on approach is proven to lead to faster results. At the end of each lesson we will recap the feedback provided during the lesson and you will be left with exercises to practice both in and out of the water between lessons for faster learning. You will have access to my expertise between lessons, meaning you can reach out to me when you are practicing. I look forward to swimming with you and helping you meet your swimming goals!

It is clear that she has many years of experience and knowledge in teaching swimming at all ages and levels. We will continue to return to her for more rounds of lessons for both our children...
