Hello! Im Kira. I am a life-long swimmer and daughter of a professional bodyboarder. My dad had me in the ocean since I was a baby and I loved swimming in our pool growing up. Now I am a mother and taught my son to swim! That experience inspired me to become a swim instructor and it has been such a beautiful journey helping kids feel comfortable and confident in the water.

Hi, my name is Kelvin Villegas. I have taught swim lessons since June 2018, have worked as a swim team coach, and have even coached a youth diving team for a season. I love the water!! I used to swim competitively and now I swim 2 to 3 times a week in the pool and at least once in the ocean. My goal for teaching swimming is primarily to help people see the water as a place that they can be in and have fun. Water brings real danger and it is important that we learn proper safety procedures but our goal is ultimately to feel as comfortable in water as we do on land. Swimming, for me, is a portal into another dimension. I often invite my students to imagine that being in water is like being in outer space. I love to be silly and enjoy finding creative ways that fit every student.

Hi, my name is Wendy. I have taught swim lessons since March 2010, and I was also a lifeguard. I grew up around rivers, lakes, and the Pacific Ocean. I love to swim. I swam on the team in high school and in college. At age 17, I started teaching at the YMCA, doing classes from beginner swimmers to advanced and adults. I then taught at swim schools teaching private lessons. Then I became a mom, had a family, and started a different career, but still kept my small business and helped my friends and family learn to swim. Its important that everyone is water safe and confident in the water. I have worked with students 7 months through adults, including those with special needs.

Hi! My name is Trivonne. Ive been around the aquatics community for over 12 years. When I was 8, I joined a competitive swim team and quickly found a love for the water and the sport. In June 2021, I started teaching swim lessons, and in January 2023, I transitioned into coaching as well. Over the past 4 years, Ive been fortunate enough to have taught ages ranging from 6 months to adults, including special needs, and beginners to swim team. I believe that learning how to swim can be fun and exciting, not just a life lesson. I have learned that every kid has their own unique way of learning, and my goal is to adapt to their specific needs. Whether youre interested in learning only water safety skills or becoming a competitive swimmer, I am happy to assist you!
