My daughters love their swimming lessons with Emily. They have fun and have improved significantly, thank you!

About Emily A.

I've been teaching swimming lessons for over 5 years. Growing up, I was lucky to learn water safety, but I also come from a family where many didn't learn to swim, so I understand how intimidating swimming can be. I'm certified as a Lifeguard, Swim Instructor, Lifesaving Instructor, and Emergency First Aid Instructor.

Teaching philosophy

I meet each swimmer where they're at and go at a pace that feels safe and comfortable. I teach with patience, empathy, and clear simple guidance, tailoring each session to your pace and goals. I believe in creating a positive environment where you feel supported as you learn and improve.
