Hi! Im Mckenah! Ive been teaching swim lessons for 10 years and truly love helping swimmers of all ages become confident and comfortable in the water. Ive had the opportunity to work with everyone from babies as young as 4 months old to adults, including children on the autism spectrum. What makes me a good swim instructor is my patience, adaptability, and ability to connect with each swimmer individually. I understand that every person learns differently, so I take the time to figure out what works best for them while making lessons fun and encouraging. I especially love helping nervous or hesitant swimmers build trust and confidence in the water. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where every swimmer feels comfortable learning, celebrating their progress, and developing skills that will last a lifetime!

Greetings all- Teaching and training is a passion of mine. I have been teaching for 30 years, all ages, levels, and abilities. When teaching kids, its about having fun while learning skills and teaching safety. With adults, its learning new motor skills while being safe. Continued practice after lessons is key to mastering skills. I am an American Red Cross Lifeguard, Lifeguard Instructor, and Instructor Trainer, which means I train the trainer along with holding the Water Safety Instructor and Instructor Trainer positions. I have coached swimming, taught water aerobics, and have run pool programs for various organizations. Before moving to Texas, I was promoting safety for the state of Florida, encouraging communities to take an active role in water safety among other topics.
