About
Please READ this before requesting service — I do NOT travel to Cedar Park or Avery Ranch in N. Austin, so please keep this in mind and hire a different swim instructor. I live in far south Austin now basically Buda and I just can’t do that commute anymore with traffic being so bad so please understand that. Please have a pool in your backyard or access to a community pool or apartment pools are best. I do have access to two pools but they are both in South Austin because I’m not able to teach at a lot of public pools. My swim lessons are a bit different than others I have my own approach to swim lessons that I have developed over the years (but it works very well, I have almost a 100% completion rate for kids 3 and up plus I also teach infants too) 8-10 lesson course to go over everything that I teach - freestyle, breaststroke, floating on back, diving to pick up stuff and etc. My price is based upon 20 years of teaching experience!! I love teaching swimming lessons and I think it shows through in the quality of my swim lessons. Everyone is blown away after one swim lesson. I believe in quality over quantity of lessons. And, I also don’t believe in group swim style lessons for many many reasons I could list but the most important thing is just the risk associated with group swim lessons and not having my eyes on each kid at all times is impossible if it’s group lessons. I do realize my price seems high but really it’s not because of several reasons, I’m driving to you and your location (gas costs a lot when you’re driving all over Austin area). I also can teach your kid(s) how to swim or stroke technique in half the time of other instructors (as in they take 15-20 lessons to get to what I can do in 8-10) who charge less than me and I deserve to be paid for that difference. Please read my reviews from real customers that I’ve had for many years or new customers alike and you will see why. I also offer a first trial lesson (it isn’t free but it’s just to make sure we are a good fit) so you can see what I can do in just one lesson and then after that I do require a commitment at least 8 lessons minimum with either me or my employees. My favorite moment is the look on my swim clients eyes (kids or adults) when they finally swim or accomplish doing something that they didn't think they could do in the water. It’s the best feeling in the world to see that look in their eyes, helping others and making a difference in their lives that will last forever! Once you learn how to swim you will never forget it and that also goes with floating on back as well as other very important life saving skills. I want learning how to swim to be fun but also informative for whatever level you may be. Swimming is a beautiful thing and in my opinion the best form of exercise that works out your entire body without hurting your body. Thank you so much and I look forward to meeting you for a swim lesson 🧜🏼‍♀️🏊‍♀️

She is an absolute master of her craft. Our son got to his first lesson and was screaming and not wanting to go in the pool. 15 minutes in, he was laughing and having a blast. Now, every Thursday he is waking up in the morning and asking us if he gets to go in the big pool today. This is a slam dunk for any parent who wants to get their kid to love the water. Very grateful we found her.

Details: Young child (18 months - 5 years old) • No experience • Comfortable in water • Improve swimming technique • Learn basic strokes • Become more comfortable in water • Yes, a pool that allows private lessons • 30 minutes • My home, venue, etc.

Thank you so much Nathan for such a nice review. They have come so far already and I can’t wait to see how much further they will go with their swim lessons. I love teaching your boys how to swim and getting them over being scared in the water.
