Lifesaving Society Instructor & Examiner with 12+ years experience, teaching ages 6+, adults, triathletes
I have over 12 years of experience, working for the City of Calgary and privately with Propel since 2019. I have taught children and adults of all ages and skill levels, and coached athletes training for triathlons such as Ironman 70.3 and firefighters preparing for lifeguarding certifications.
My primary goal is to foster a space free of judgment and encourage creativity and fun throughout lessons. I incorporate games, challenges, and interactive exercises that make learning enjoyable, and I use a variety of teaching methods to keep students engaged. I participate in the pool for the entire lesson; I never teach from the pool deck.
Lessons are highly adaptable to your personal goals and skills. We will start by discussing your expectations for lessons and what you hope to achieve. I teach swimming sequentially, building on skills so that swimmers are comfortable in the water and build confidence.
Centrally located downtown, the Residence Inn features a shallow pool and natural light ideal for kids and beginner adult lessons. Enjoy lounge seating in a comfortable environment with an outdoor view, complimentary towel-service, on-deck showers, and a hot tub for swimmers to warm up in.
Pool access details are provided after you book.
