About Natasha
“This is not permanent.”
My father was always a swimmer and encouraged me to join my high school swim team. It influenced not only my full body strength but my confidence as well. Growing up surrounded by lakes, I love knowing I can jump in the water and be safe no matter what. Swimming is about safety first. It increases confidence!
Besides, I love yoga and also teach yoga as well as a barista in Markthal.
Coaching Style
I used to be a cheerleader so I am always motivated and having fun with a smile on my face. I make sure each of my students has one-on-one engagement in the class. I remind all my swimmers that the reason why we learn certain things is so we can keep ourselves safe.
Certifications:
Lifeguard certified from 2014-2019.
Employee of the month at Goldfish Swim School 2014.
Specialties:
I love beginners! It’s the most rewarding to grow with someone getting in the water for the first time to moving to the next level. I love working on breathing techniques and flip turns for the advanced.
“Rise and Shine! Everybody should be able to enjoy the water!”.”
