Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Private and Semi-Private swim lessons for all ages and abilities in a warm, calm, nurturing environment. You do not need to worry about raw skin, irritated eyes, and lungs, contracts, distractions, or joining a club. Lessons are offered seasonally from May through October, with very flexible scheduling. Lessons are taught out of my very private, in-ground, heated, multi-depth pool. I am an expert with learning how to swim and enjoy the water for life! I am certified by the Red Cross as a Water Safety Instructor Trainer, as a Lifeguard Instructor, and in Adaptive Aquatics. I understand the fears and limitations that occur when the medium is water, and I adjust my teaching for each student, each class. I teach the hydrodynamics of the water and offer love, encouragement, support, endurance, practice, and a ton of high fives! At the end of each class, time is allocated for play and practice, to help solidify skills covered. Class times vary in length, depending on what is needed. Learning to swim is a life skill and everyone can do it! Everyone can learn to swim, if given the proper instruction and motivation. I always have the best students and families, and I make sure each student is successful, every skill, every class.

Karla has been teaching my daughter (now 2 1/2) how to swim in both private and semi private settings with tons of success! My daughter loved Karla's energy, spirit and was so excited to go to swim class! Karla made her feel comfortable with and without me in the water. My daughter made lots of progress while having fun! Most importantly, Karla can handle any personality type from nervous to excitable. I highly recommend Karla!

Karla did an amazing job with my two boys, ages 9 and 10. They needed help perfecting their swimming between fear and lack of skill. I cannot say enough good things. From the first day she had them swimming in the deep end and jumping off the diving boards. Highly recommend.

Thank you so much! The boys were amazing, and so dedicated to learning to swim and play in the deep water...and who doesn't love a swim lesson that is all about cannonballs off the board? We all love and learn in our own way; the challenge is finding the connection. Your boys made it sooooo easy for me to teach and love them!

Karla was a fabulous swimming teacher. My 10 year old son does not like swimming but I wanted to make sure his skills were good enough to be safe. He related well to Karla. She boosted his confidence and got him swimming strong in no time. I would highly recommend her.

Thank you so much! Your guy loves basketball, so not to hard to make that connection transfer over to swimming! Wish I stayed in Ohio to keep teaching the whole family!

Karla was the perfect swim instructor for my girls! She knows how to explain things so they make sense to kids and takes the time to describe how our bodies interact with the water rather than just telling the kids what to do. She was so calming yet firm with my tense, anxious child who had been able to "hide" in large classes, and she finally learned to swim! Karla has the perfect blend of attributes: patience, being informative, and making things fun (because it SHOULD be fun to swim!). I would hire her constantly if I could.

Elise, thank you! You know I love your girls. They caught on to the water as though they had been swimming their whole life. I'm sorry I moved so far away. Come stay any time, and I'll teach the girls here on the mountain.
