About
Hi! I’m Kristina — an airline pilot, elite CrossFit athlete, swim instructor, NASM-certified personal trainer, and online performance coach with over 13 years of experience helping both adults and kids build confidence, improve fitness, and perform at their best. Before becoming an airline pilot, I actually used my swim coaching business to fund my entire flight training from 2016–2019. Coaching has always been a huge part of my life, and today I combine my background in swimming, athletics, fitness, and performance training to help clients feel stronger, healthier, and more confident both in and out of the water. My coaching style is encouraging, energetic, detail-oriented, and personalized. I believe every client learns differently, and I focus on creating a supportive environment that helps people improve safely and sustainably — whether they’re learning basic water confidence, refining swim technique, building endurance, improving athletic performance, or starting a new fitness journey.

Kristina, has a very friendly personality. She was very communicative through out. Her approach to teaching is very practical and she lets the student learn at their own pace. She had me floating and trying out a few strokes in a few lessons. I would definitely look at Kristina if you are trying to learn swimming. You won't regret it.

Kristina was great with my 5 year old, who was terrified of the water, but now swims like a fish! Kristina was very patient and positively addressed any issues my daughter had.
