About

Shello! My name is Aryanna, and I am so excited to meet you. I have been teaching swim lessons since I was 16 years old when I was living in Japan. Together, we can explore the world of mermaids and their ocean friends! I have taught children and adults with varied needs (various languages, hard of hearing, special needs) around the world! I am also an OSSE-certified reading specialist and certified ELL/special education and elementary school educator. I have a master's degree in the science of reading, and I am currently completing my doctorate in education. I have taught in DCPS for over 13 years. Teaching is my passion, and I would love to share the joy of swimming, reading, and writing with you and your family. Thanks for finding me here. I am looking forward to connecting with you. Have a mermazing day!

I'm a 39-year-old finally learning to swim, and I had a fantastic experience with Aryanne. She has been incredibly patient, encouraging, and made every session both productive and enjoyable. Aryanne took the time to understand my fears and tailored each lesson to meet my specific needs. Thanks to her support and guidance, I'm gaining confidence in the water and making real progress.

Ary is an amazing swim instructor. She is very patient and puts you at ease with her smile, calm, reassuring voice. I (adult) made significant improvement in learning how to tread water within 15minutes of taking her lesson. This also helped ease my fear of swimming in deeper than 5 feet of water. My daughter is taking swim lessons from Ary and she loves it. Learn to swim with Ary. Your time spent with her will be worth every minute.
