Patricia is so great with my daughter and is fantastic at making swim lessons both motivating and fun at the same time. She is so patient and encouraging. My daughter loves her lessons with Patricia. After watching her with my daughter, I also signed up for lessons of my own. I’ve already noticed so much improvement with my swimming skills and it’s all due to Patricia’s teaching. She’s amazing!

My 9 year old has always been hesitant with her swimming experience. Patricia was kind and encouraging, quick to assess my daughter’s skill set, and gave positive challenges that she was able to meet which helped develop her confidence within only one lesson! My daughter loved having the one on one time to ensure that no moment was wasted and she was able feel herself improve during the lesson. We will definitely book again!

Patricia was a very kind, patient and encouraging swim instructor. My two boys loved her and asked when they could have a lesson with her again😀 She works very well with kids by providing great instruction and a very calm and welcoming environment.

About Patricia S.

Hi I’m Patricia! I have 10+ years of experience as a swim instructor and a lifelong background in swimming. I currently work as an aquatic leader for a local municipality and teach lessons to students of all ages and abilities. I am also a certified Lifesaving Instructor and teach Bronze Medallion/ Cross, key certifications for future lifeguards.

Teaching philosophy

I aim to make every lesson safe, engaging, and tailored to each student's specific needs. I believe swimming is a skill everyone should have - it's a fun, low-impact form of exercise and an important survival skill.

A typical first lesson

A typical first lesson includes a discussion about your goals and an assessment of your current swimming skills. From there, we’ll create a personalized plan to help you reach your goals.


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.

Pool access details are provided after you book.
