About

25+ years experience teaching/coaching Swimming. 14 years Head Varsity Water Polo coach. Great with kids, former ABA therapist with lots of special ed experience as well. There is nothing more rewarding then helping adults/kids meet their goals, and to overcome their fears of water. I work with all levels from ages 5+, some exceptions made with younger kiddos. My turn around is rather quick, as I make it my personal mission to ensure that I can impact as many humans as possible to be water safe by the end of every swim season. Small discounts for multiple lessons scheduled per week, and or groups of up to 3 students. Feel free to inquire for more details.

Melanie is fantastic! She is patient, encouraging, and makes swimming fun. My daughter absolutely loves her classes and has gained so much confidence in the water. We’re so glad we found her!
