I have always had a fear of the waters.. and various people had tried to teach me swimming in the past but none has succeeded.

Stacey is able to break down what I need to be doing in very clear concise manners. She is extremely patient and encouraging.

I never felt I could ever come this far - now I can swim reasonably confidently.. and I am not as paralysed by fear in the deep end anymore.

Looking forward to having more lessons to build up my stamina and confidence!

I started as an absolutely non- swimmer! I always had a fear of being in the water. Stacy made me feel very comfortable. I never thought it was possible for me to swim, she kept telling me "You can do it". She was right! Now I can swim free style in the deep water!
I really enjoy the lessons. I would highly recommend Stacy. She is extremely patient with her students. She is always with me in the water, that is very important to me. Stacy is very flexible with schedule as well.
I absolutely love swimming and look forward to her lessons!

Stacy is an amazing instructor. I was really afraid of the water but I felt comfortable and safe with her from day 1. She pushes you just the right amount to make progress and she is very patient! She really knows her stuff and knows where to start to ensure you are going about it at the correct pace. When I began, I was scared to even just put my face in the water, but now, while I am still learning, I can swim freestyle across the pool with decent form. I never thought that day would come! I've also learned some very important safety techniques that really help me feel much safer in the water. I would highly recommend her!

I took lessons to learn how to tread water, do the freestyle and basically get over my fear of the water. All this I achieved in six lessons thanks to Stacy. She's tremendously patient and encouraging; and her method of instruction clear. Freestyle wasn't the easiest to learn but by breaking it down into the separate parts, e.g. stroke, breath, etc, you learn and master each one before you put it all together. Treading water turned out to be much easier than I thought. I'm not a fan of the deep end of the pool but I feel much more at ease there now knowing that I can now hold my own for a while.

Stacy is an amazing teacher. I'm 22 and was terrified of the water when I started and could barely float. Now I can swim fairly well but I'm still working on my endurance and swimming in deep water. Stacy is also amazing with scheduling lessons. I've had to rescheduled so many times and she's always been really accommodating. I look forward to continue working with Stacy on perfecting my swimming.

Stacy is an excellent instructor. I started taking swimming lessons a couple of months ago b/c I figured it was time to take the plunge and learn (at 22). Stacy helped ease my fear of the water. She started teaching me the basic fundamentals and started to erase bad habits/misconceptions about how to actually swim. Stacy thoroughly demonstrates the exercises beforehand and follows you through the water as you do each once, checking for proper form and balance.

When I first decided to take swimming lessons I didn't have any expectations... I was a 33-year old female who couldn't swim :( What I loved about working with Stacy is that she was very approachable as a person without being intimidating as an instructor, as some can be. She knows the sport, she breaks it down to you to your level, she is very effective in relaying the info and understanding of your individual needs. Six lessons later I was swimming freestyle completely on my own, ten lessons later I was swimming in the deep end of the pool without being 'frozen' by fear of its depth. When I have time I am planning to come back to learn another swimming style. I would definitely recommend Stacy as an instructor, two thumbs up.

Stacy is very flexible w/scheduling (especially if you have last minute rescheduling needs). She's a great instructor, I've tried many in the past and she's finally got me swimming! She actually gets in the water and will literally adjust your position as you swim. Although I'm still uncomfortable in deeper water, she's made great strides and I look forward to continuing practicing with her.

I started as an adult beginner swimmer and had always doubt about myself that if I could really swim and the answer is yes. I took private lessons from Stacy and only after couple of lessons, I was able to swim. She taught me how to swim starting with the basics from bubbling, back floating, kicking with a kick board, kicking without a kick board, side kicking, to rolling and then finally free style. So if you plan to take adult swimming lessons, Stacy is the answer!!! Stacy is very patient and friendly and I will definitely recommend my friends to her!!!
