I was lucky enough to have parents who made swimming a priority. My mom took me to swim lessons at the local YMCA starting when I was 6 months old, and I havent stopped loving the water. I swam on the junior swim team and was a junior lifeguard and swim instructor as a teen at my local pool. As an adult, Ive competed in triathlons in the past, but what I love most is snorkeling, open-water swimming, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. I believe that having a good foundation in swimming opens up so many different opportunities in many outdoor activities, and Im excited to open those doors for my students.

Hi, my name is Austin, and I've taught approximately 1,000 people of all ages, backgrounds, and levels how to swim from my past job working for City Wide Aquatics. In 2007, I became a lifeguard, and eventually, I ran my own facility in July 2021. Within that time, I learned how to teach effective swimming lessons that are both safe and fun.
