Hi, my name is Abraham! I have been in the water my whole life, swimming professionally since April 2008 and proudly representing Mexico at the elite level. During my career, I competed at the World Junior Championships in Hungary, raced in multiple European tours, and earned a full scholarship to Brigham Young University, where I finished with top 10 all-time results in four events (200 Fly, 500 Free, 1000 Free, and 1650 Free). Now, I am excited to share my love for swimming with the next generation. My goal is not only to teach kids how to swim safely and efficientlyoften in less than five lessonsbut also to help them fall in love with the sport. In every lesson, I bring energy, patience, and fun to make sure every swimmer feels confident! I have even worked with students who are on the spectrum.

Hi! My name is Evelyn, and I am a current college student in Pennsylvania with a lifelong background in aquatics! I have taught swim lessons with multiple reputable companies since August 2023 and enjoy cultivating an individualized lesson plan and teaching approach for every student. I have worked with all levels in all age ranges and am very patient with my students, as I understand that swimming and refining technique can be very intimidating and difficult. My goal as an instructor is to have each student feel that they have learned something new every lesson that they can apply in the future. I am also an Emergency Medical Technician on an ambulance, a lifeguard, a current aqua aerobics instructor, and an ex-water polo player.

Hi! My name is Bre, and Im 22 years old. Ive been in the water for as long as I can remember. I began swim lessons as a toddler and fell in love with swimming. By the age of 7, I was competing on a club team and continued to swim competitively until I was 18. Although I was offered the opportunity to swim in college, I chose to focus on academics at SDSU. I worked as a certified lifeguard and swim instructor at my local pool in Seattle since February 2021, gaining valuable experience in water safety, before I moved to San Diego for college. I have since then kept my connection to the water through teaching private family lessons during the summer and enjoying some laps on my own from time to time.
