“Alivia makes my kids feel comfortable with her in the water and quickly gained their trust. We have done both group and individual lessons from Alivia and saw both my children’s swimming improve dramatically in just a few lessons. Alivia has a unique bag of tricks she uses to keep the kids engaged, excited and progressing with their skills. After learning we got a new pool, she talked to my kids about pool safety and with my permission taught them basic rescue techniques and what to do in an emergency. Alivia is a truly skilled instructor and after a long search for a good fit we are so glad we connected with her.”

“My daughter’s apprehension about learning to swim vanished as soon as she got into the pool with Alivia. Now she looks forward to every lesson. It’s obvious Alivia has a lot of experience teaching kids to swim; her fun approach and calm demeanor inspire interest and confidence while building fundamental skills.”

“My son has done both private and group lessons with Alivia over the last two years and his swimming skills have improved tremendously. My goal was to make my son a stronger swimmer in preparation for Jr. lifeguards and Alivia had him in shape within weeks. Her pool is heated very warm so we will be able to continue throughout the colder months comfortably. I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

“Lessons From a Lifeguard is a highly organized and professional swim program focused on teaching water safety and technique. We have experience with all of the other options in town and feel like Alivia offers the high caliber swim environment we have been searching for. In addition to learning swim strokes and water safety, Alivia teaches my boys appropriate strength training to further improve their swim skills.”
