I believe every child deserves to feel safe, confident, and joyful in the water. My structured, milestone-based swim program meets each child at their level — whether they've never been in a pool or are ready to refine their stroke technique.
I come to your private pool or a local facility. Sessions are 20—45 minutes, focused entirely on your child.
STAGE 1
Water Confidence
Gentle water acclimation, breath introduction, floating with support, parent-baby bonding in water.
STAGE 2
Water Safety
Independent floating, submersion, rolling front to back, climbing out of the pool safely.
STAGE 3
Building Strokes
Freestyle and backstroke basics, breath timing, streamline and push-off from the wall, and underwater confidence
STAGE 4
Stroke Development
Breaststroke, dolphin kick, flip turns, building stamina and love for the sport.
STAGE 5
Performance
All four strokes, race starts, pacing, endurance, and mindset coaching for young athletes.
You are not too old to learn. And your fear of water is not a character flaw — it's often a response to a past experience, and it deserves to be treated that way.
With my background in mental health and trauma-informed practice, I specialize in working with adults who have a complicated relationship with water. Whether you nearly drowned as a child, had a traumatic lesson experience, or simply grew up without access to a pool — I see you, and I know how to work with you.
This isn't just about swimming. It's about restoring your sense of safety in your own body and in the water. We go at your pace. Always.
Together we'll work on:
If you already move well on land but want to unlock swimming as a performance tool, I'll help you get there efficiently. As a 2x Olympic swimmer and former Cirque du Soleil performer, I understand body mechanics at an elite level.
We'll work on:
Ideal for: triathletes, runners, cyclists, surfers, yogis, and anyone who wants their body to perform in the water the way it performs on land.
Do you teach at my home pool?
Yes — I come to private pools in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Bel Air, Brentwood, Century City and surrounding LA. No pool? I can recommend local facilities.
My child is terrified of water. Can you still help?
Absolutely. This is one of my specialties. I use a gentle, milestone-based approach with zero pressure. We go at your child's pace, always.
I'm an adult who had a traumatic water experience. Is this safe for me?
Yes. My approach is trauma-informed — I understand how the nervous system responds to fear and we work with your body, not against it. Many of my adult students have never told anyone about their fear before. This is a judgment-free space.
What ages do you teach?
From 6 months (parent-baby classes) through adult. No upper age limit.
How many lessons will I need?
That depends entirely on your starting point and goals. After your first session I'll give you a clear, realistic picture of what your journey could look like.
Do you offer packages?
Yes — ask me about multi-session packages when you reach out.
