Hi prospective parents & swimmers! My name is Kat. Nilov and I swam competitively for 8 years! It empowered me, strengthened my body and my mind, and truly changed my life. Throughout this period, I taught swim lessons on and off, which gave a younger version of myself the communication and leadership skills that make me a successful professional today. Not only do I miss the joy of building confidence in my swimmers, I also miss the smiles, laughs, and splashes that came along the journey. I am a wholistic instructor and am very mindful throughout all of our sessions. I have experience working with children on the spectrum, and of swimmers with zero to strong levels of interest, ability, and comfort. I look forward to our journey!

If you have specific preferences or concerns, our team is happy to accommodate them in your registration. We tailor each lesson to your comfort and goals.
