I really enjoyed my lesson with Ashlyn. It was my first ever swimming lesson. Ashlyn was very encouraging. She would teach me techniques and observe how I adapt to them, then tweak things as needed. I would definitely recommend Ashlyn to anyone who wants to take swimming lessons.

About Ashlyn E.

I've been working as a swim instructor for three years, teaching people of all ages from infants to adults. I'm a certified lifeguard and first-aider, which means safety is always at the core of what I do. I have experience with stroke improvement and love finding creative, engaging ways to help swimmers build the skills they're after.

Teaching philosophy

I prioritize making lessons engaging while focusing on swimming for fun, fitness, and safety. I enjoy finding creative ways to teach techniques and adapt to each learner's style. Safety is always first, and I work to build the specific skills each swimmer wants, whether stroke improvement, water confidence, or fitness.

A typical first lesson

I will cater my lessons to your goals, whether thats learning for safety, fitness, or leisure. We start by getting comfortable in the water, submerging at a pace that works for you.
