    Hi! I'm Alex! I've been a competitive swimmer for 10 years and a swim instructor for 9 years. I've taught all ages, from toddlers to adults, including kids with special needs. I really like to teach kids who are getting ready for or are on a swim team and are just looking for some help with stroke technique.

    Coach Nichole

    Hi! My name is Nichole and I would love to help you learn to swim. I am a lifelong swimmer, who began at the age of 6 - and never stopped. I have been on swim teams, taught lessons, and been a Masters swimmer for many years - and now have two teenage swimmers of my own. I understand the swim world, both competitively and for recreation/exercise. I am now 54 and enjoy the water on a daily basis - swimming in pools, lakes, and the ocean. Although I know all the strokes, I most enjoy working with the beginning swimmer. I know swimming can be scary for some and my goal is to help you feel comfortable and confident, both in and near the water!

    Coach Meghan

    Swim Coach
    Hi, I’m Coach Meghan from Warrenton, VA! My swimming journey began in 9th grade, and I continued competing on the varsity swim team throughout high school while also excelling in basketball, softball, golf, rugby, lacrosse, and field hockey. I pursued my passion for Human Development at George Mason University, where I earned a Bachelor’s degree.

    For the past seven years, I have been dedicated to the water as an instructor, USA-certified coach, ARC lifeguard trainer, and stroke and turn official for local teams through the Virginia High School League (VHSL). I’ve had the pleasure of coaching athletes ranging from 4 months to 84 years old. My expertise lies in guiding swimmers who are new to the water or working to overcome their fears. I also collaborate with families to create adaptive aquatic strategies for participants with disabilities. I’m passionate about teaching new and young swimmers water safety, helping them master all four strokes, and fostering their love for the sport.

    Alex was a great swim instructor. I improved my swimming skills in just one training session. I feel more confident being in the pool. She's awesome!
