About
You are guaranteed to learn how to swim. Most of my beginner clients obtain basic stroke techniques by the 7th lesson and can swim across the pool. Most intermediate/ advance students decide to compete. The lessons are fun and filled with all types of games and skills to help you become stronger and more confident in the water.

V, is an amazing teacher. She is knowledgeable. Calm and extremely patient. She pays attention to how you performing each instruction with insightful help for improvement. 3 lessons and I'm actually swimming almost the length of the pool. She video's your swimming to show you how you are doing. I showed my friends and they are impressed. People if you want to learn to swim hire "V" Thank you so much "V".

We have only had one class with Veronica so far, but we are very excited to keep going! She is teaching my 18 month old and 3 year old how to feel comfortable in the water, and eventually swim on their own. She showed up early, and ready to jump right in with them both. She worked with each of them one-on-one and even spent a little more time than we expected. They both warmed up to her right away and I could tell by their body language in the water that they really trust her. Looking forward to more lessons!

Veronica really does deliver! I leaned several techniques and was able to swim across the pool in one lesson! My husband will be taking rescue lessons with her and she will also teach my toddler. So glad I found her.
