About

Hi, I'm Julia, and I've been teaching swimming for over 15 years. I tailor each lesson to the individual's needs and goals. I'm a patient, positive, and encouraging instructor who believes everyone can become a confident swimmer with the right support.

Coaching Philosophy

I'm a patient, positive, and encouraging instructor who believes everyone can become a confident swimmer with the right support. My focus is on creating a safe, enjoyable learning environment where students feel comfortable progressing at their own pace.

Favorite Drills

I incorporate fun, age-appropriate games for younger swimmers to build confidence, water safety, and a love of swimming. I enjoy teaching streamline and glide drills, kickboard kicking, catch-up freestyle, side-kicking, sculling, and breathing drills. My favorite thing to teach is treading water as its such a huge safety skill and also really fun!

Fun Facts

Swimming has been a lifelong passion, and I've been in the water since I was 8 years old, when I began competitive swimming. I went on to play professional water polo and represented the Florida State team from ages 13 to 17. Today, I continue to play on a Masters water polo team because I genuinely love the sport and enjoy staying active in the water.
