Lauren is an amazing swim instructor super kind, patient, and just really great at what she does. She makes learning to swim feel easy and fun, whether you're just starting out or looking to improve your strokes. She explains everything clearly and always takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable and confident in the water. Thanks to her, I feel way more confident in the water and actually look forward to swimming now!

Had a lovely first class with Lauren. She made me feel comfortable in water which is a challenge for me. She was easy to talk to and ensured we focused on my goals for the class.

About Lauren S.

I started teaching 11 years ago at public pools and summer camps. I have also run my own summer swimming classes ("Open Ocean") for people in their backyard home pools; this always reaches a point via word of mouth where demand exceeds my capacity which is a good sign!

Teaching philosophy

Many teachers who use a specified program teach skill by skill. I've noticed over my teaching career that sometimes, this specific approach is sometimes too narrow- instructors are looking to check something off a report card. Although I will teach you technique, my overarching goal is to get you moving through the water as fast as possible.

A typical first lesson

I am flexible with times & locations- just send a message! For our first class we will assess where you're currently at. I will create structured plans but I am also always going with your flow- I can always modify the class on the spot to something specific (maybe you just worked legs at the gym and want to focus on arms instead etc!)
