Swim lessons with Kirsten K.

Surrey Panorama Ridge

Hello my name is Kirsten and I have taught swimming lessons since 2006, and private lessons since 2008. I have worked at many municipalities over the years, as well as the YMCA. I am also certified to teach Bronze Medallion, Bronze Cross as well as WSI. I am a clinician who trains fellow staff on the intricacies of higher level strokes as well as considerations for adult learners. I have always had a love of teaching as well as swimming. My goal is to see growth and enjoyment throughout the lessons I teach! I have worked with many who have overcome fear and discomfort, and I find real pleasure in creating a safe and patient learning environment. Over the years, I have taught not only Red Cross but other lesson programs as well. This has given me the opportunity to use drills and approaches not found in Red Cross. I will use all my resources to create a personalized experience that aligns with your personal goals! Look forward to working with you! *I strongly suggest that students bring a pair of goggles and, if you have long hair, a swim cap to keep your hair out of your face*

Best teacher!
10/10 instructor! She’s fun and enthusiastic! At the same time firm enough to keep my five y/o son’s attention for the hour. He’s learned so much in a few lessons

Professional and Empathetic
Kirsten has helped my son grow exponentially in his swimming abilities. He came anxious to get his face/ears wet and just floating to now mastering the many skills he needs to go to the pool independently and successfully with his friends. This is a huge win and Kirsten did it with her valuable experience and her compassionate approach to teaching kids with sensitivities. We are thankful that he forever has this life skill!

Where I teach

Surrey Panorama Ridge

30-31°C · 45ft long · 3ft to 10ft deep

A hidden neighborhood retreat, this bright indoor pool feels like a mini getaway. Sunlight pours through the large panel doors along one end, lighting up the sparkling blue water while giving swimmers a fun peek at the outdoors. The pool's gentle stair entry is perfect for toddlers easing into the water, and the gradual depth and long length allow everyone from beginners to confident swimmers to practice at their own pace. Just steps away, a newly renovated restroom, shower, and changing room make getting ready easy for parents juggling towels and goggles. Warm lighting, fresh facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere come together to create a safe, cheerful space where families and individuals can build skills, confidence, and happy memories in the water.
