I grew up swimming with and for my Dad, “Coach” in Southern California. After teaching me how to swim I swam competitively through high school. During college I had my own very successful backyard swim business as well as working as a teacher’s aide for adult classes at Grossmont Community College. After earning my degree in Early Childhood Education I taught preschool for 6 years. I received my WSI and Lifeguard Trainers Certifications, and as an aquatics director at several locations, taught swimming, coached swim teams and trained swim instructors and lifeguards. These experiences have given me a great background for teaching all levels of swimming to all ages.

South Orange County area
I have been a swim instructor for 4 years, but have been involved with
swim clinics for 7 years. I am Lifeguard CPR and First Aid Certified. I
attend Clark University in Massachusetts where I am majoring in Psychology
and Urban Development and Social Change. My swimming career began at the
age of 3 when I started on my first swim team. I have been swimming
competitively since then and continue as a member of my college team. In
lessons, I believe that creating trust between the child and I is the
first step to learning. I hope to give children the same love of the water
that I have been blessed with.
Kristin, South Orange County Swimming Instructor
Hi! My name is Kristen and I live in beautiful Dana Point, California. Dana Point is close to Laguna Beach, Aliso Viejo, Mission Viejo, San Juan Capistrano, and San Clemente to name a few. I grew up in South East Asia swimming, snorkeling, windsurfing, and boating the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. I have been teaching swim lessons for over 10 years, and am currently WSI, CPR, and First Aid certified. I find great joy in teaching children to swim, because it is not only a necessary life saving skill, but a skill that elicits self-confidene and pride. I have a heart for special needs children and have extensive experience working in the water with children who have autism, downs syndrome, spina bifida, and who are para and quadriplegic. I love the water and am so excited about helping your children learn to be safe in the water as they learn to love it as well.
