Swim Better San Diego

Private at home swim lessons

Private, at-home swim lessons focused on safety, confidence, and real skill in the water.

With over 40 years in and around the water as a swimmer, national champion, coach, and ocean lifeguard, I bring experience that goes far beyond typical swim instruction.

I have coached athletes from their first strokes to the Olympic level and served as a coordinator for the Junior Lifeguard program here in Southern California.

Whether your child is just getting comfortable in the water or preparing for Junior Lifeguards, each lesson is designed to build confidence, awareness, and the skills that matter most in both the pool and the ocean.
