Hi, name is Kristina and I’m an elementary Special Education Teacher who was also a competitive swimmer and ocean lifeguard.  

I’ve been teaching swimming for five years at the YMCA and privately and the East and West coasts.  I’ve also taught swimming at the New York Athletic Club.

I’m passionate about swimming and compassionate when it comes to teaching.  I have a lot of energy and what it takes to help you reach your goals.  Swimming means safety.  It improves coordination, and builds strength and confidence.  Not to mention it helps keep you in great shape! 

I’m experienced with Mommy & Me, young children, stroke development, advanced stroke technique, fitness swimming, and fearful swimmers (including adults!).

Once you learn to swim, you are a swimmer for life!
