And a client writes THIS about u, in a group of over 30K moms… what?!! Had me in tears.

This little girl, who was fearful when she started, and SUPER attached to nanny and mom, was able to learn this NECESSARY survival skill after only 5 LESSONS! When u understand the psychological needs of your students and proper swim alignment-this is possible! Have your swim instructors provided similar results?

How incredible was my week? Well, I got updates on all my swimmers’ first meets! Ethan made county in breaststroke after ONE lesson focusing on it and perfecting his underwater pull. Kammy dropped a whopping 5 seconds in butterfly after we revised her stroke and learned the turn (she’s 9 so bottom of her age group), Nico dropped an incredible 3 seconds in backstroke after one lesson focused on that stroke, and little Harrison has made his mommy so happy to see how comfortable he now is in the deep end (proof in video)! My job can’t get more fulfilling…. Summer is getting off to a blazing start!

It’s that time of year again! As summer approaches, I will try to be finalizing my swim schedule within the next two weeks. If you’ve been wondering about the instruction behind all of the referrals/recommendations, please consider reaching out to me to schedule lessons so I can help YOUR child get ready for the pool! 925-395-6995

So many of my clients have left the dozens of surrounding swim schools (splash, American swim academy, little dippers, all stars swim etc) because they are dissatisfied with progress and high instructor turnover, and come to me because my students, on average progress in half the time. Plus, my students learn to be efficient in the water and learn proper technique from the get-go. Efficient swimmers are strong swimmers- this makes them both SAFER swimmers and, incidentally, FASTER swimmers, as proven by the fact that over half my competitive swimmers are making waves at county. Besides all of the swim technique my students learn, I also have advanced degrees in psych and a PhD in neuroscience. This means that I help my students cope with anxiety, build confidence and pride in each progression, and learn the importance of ‘trying’ over perfectionism (which can be paralyzing for some little ones).

Normally I have a waitlist, but I spent all last summer training my nephew in the progression system I developed. He will be working alongside me with his own students this summer. Below is a review from a re the client (though I have dozens of referrals, for both myself and my nephew if requested). Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have questions.

‘Coach Genevieve has been incredibly helpful in teaching my girls to swim. Despite lessons a couple years ago, neither of my kids would even put their faces in the water, but after one lesson with Coach Gen, they started. After only a few lessons, my older daughter was able to swim by herself on our beach vacation, and our younger daughter, while not quite swimming on her own, was very confident in the water and almost there. We were hesitant to start lessons due to the cost, but my husband and I feel that we will actually end up spending less money in the end, as our kids are making much faster progress than we expected.’

My competitive swimmer clientele had grown tremendously this year, all from referrals. I have around 20 competitive swimmer clients and it’s such a thrill to hear how they are dropping time each week at meets! Several of my students are now the fastest swimmers in their age group- and one of them wrote the most lovely review of what I bring to the table as a coach. I’m honored to have helped their daughter!

“Genevieve has been a huge asset to our daughters swimming. When we began she could hardly dive and her strokes were in desperate need of help. Even after session 1 with Genevieve, our daughter's time improved drastically. Initially I was unable to sign up for weekly lessons due to the cost, however, I have made a point to make sure we get in and budget for lessons since we are seeing such huge improvements and feel the money is WELL worth the progress and end results. She is now one of the best swimmers in her age group & we will continue to strengthen her strokes and times! “

Thanks a million!

During these unprecedented times, I want to reassure my families that I am doing EVERYTHING possible to protect your children and families from Covid. Since many parents ask, I’m happy to spell out these precautions here:
I am fully vaccinated and boosted
I instruct with an N95 mask during these high-transmission periods
My setup provides ample room for family spacing to minimize contact between families
I instruct out of a chlorinated pool (the chlorine levels are lower than one would experience at a public pool with high contamination, but also high enough to kill Covid and prevent transmission- all chemical levels are closely monitored).

I’ve instructed throughout Covid with no transmissions and continue to do everything possible to hold that standard. Teaching your children means the world to me- I have immunocompromised students and family members, families with newborns, etc and I take my responsibility to keep families safe a priority while still providing top-notch instruction.

Never know what you’re going to find in between lessons... students got a treat today when I rescued a little lizard clinging to the side of the pool! Looks like he could have benefitted from some lessons too! ;)
