Enrolling your child in swimming lessons is one of the best ways to prevent drowning by teaching them essential water safety skills.

Hello, my name is Nikhil. I have been teaching swim lessons since February 2019 to students of all ages and abilities, from infants to adults, including individuals with adaptive learning needs. My passion for swimming began through Junior Lifeguards in Huntington Beach and continued as a member of the Huntington Beach High School Surf Team. I have coached swim teams and provided one-on-one instruction while focusing on technique, confidence, and water safety. My goal is to create a positive, supportive environment where students feel safe, build trust, and gain confidence in the water while having fun. I believe strong swimming skills start with water safety, encouragement, and a smile.

My name is Amelia, and I am very passionate about swimming and sharing my love for it! I have been a swimmer pretty much all my life. I started swimming competitively when I was 7, and in high school, I competed at a national level. I swam Division 1 in college for four years at UCSB. I just graduated in June 2025, and now I am in a masters program at Chapman. I have been teaching swim lessons since May 2021 and coaching club swimmers. I have helped little ones get comfortable in the water and taught them basic water safety skills. But I have also worked with older kids by getting their strokes to be legal or helping them drop time in races. I would love to support your swimmer at any point in their journey!

Hi there! My name is Lily Bradbury, and Im an incoming senior psychology major at Chapman University in Orange, CA. I swam competitively for 15 years until the end of my freshman year of college. I both lifeguarded and taught swim lessons for little ones for 4 summers at a private pool and beach club in my hometown in Connecticut. Ive taught kiddos of all ages and experiences in the waterfrom their first time in the pool without floaties to being on a swim team and seeking out help with stroke mechanics, and everything in between. My goal is to provide kids with lessons that make them excited to learn how to swim, implementing games and different instruction techniques that allow them to have fun and be safe while being in the water. Im so excited to have the opportunity to continue to teach little ones!

If you're not completely satisfied with your first lesson, just let us know, and we'll restart your lessons with a new instructor or refund your unused lessons, your choice.
For baby and some toddler lessons, parent participation is encouraged for building water comfort. For older children (typically ages 2+), parents are not specifically encouraged to be in the water, as our one-on-one private instruction is designed to build independence. However, we always require a responsible adult to be present on the premises for all lessons with minors. 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.
