Kimberly C.

I am a great coach and have experience with kids while coaching with USA swimming in Key West, Florida (Bone Island Swim Team). I have started several Master Teams while working with the YMCA in Coppell and Dallas, Texas. I recruited most of my swimmers and was part of the Dallas Aquatic Masters where we did quite well—I even took novice swimmers-due to their age and had them win in their age group. My devotion and loyalty is impeccable. I had my own swim program, as acting swim pro, for a local Country Club. I recruited my own swimmers and ended up with over 200+ families after my departure.

When arriving back in Virginia, I immediately jumped in the pool and worked for various swimming facilities. Every place I worked I had a huge following and popularity with private lessons. I continued to coach Masters (Victor's Swim Club/Sea Devil's/Fairfax ,Va). I was also the swim leg for the Old Town Tri Team (Alexandria,Va). I also started several of my own Tri-Teams and work with open water swimmers. To top things off, I am a Water Safety Instructor and exceptional with stroke technique. I have taught many adults, which requires ingenuity and the ability to exhaust whatever it takes to make that a success. Stepping out of the box is something I believe in, in order to get the person to become a safe swimmer. I am a swimmer myself and this is my passion. I am happiest in a Speedo, cap, goggles and fins/paddles! I am currently YMCA lifeguard and will do backyard lessons-something I have done before here in the Roanoke/Southlake,etc. area. I educate parents on the safety methods needed for young children when a backyard pool or Community pool is involved. I have helped parents decide on what kind of pool to install for safety and longevity use. I will come to your home and help those who want a water fit program that guarantees quick results with the proper exercises (target your problem areas) and proper equipment. I work with your schedule which eliminates the hassles of group classes not feasible with your limited free time.
I prep kids for swim teams or those needing extra help while on a team-this includes High School swimmers. I can help create a program for those coming back from injuries and help regain your strength.I'm upbeat and make all lessons a positive experience. I have tons of references to define my years of success. Have a child/adult who won't put their face in the water??? Call me quick! I've got that covered! Going on vacation and want to learn to use mask,fins and snorkel correctly....Coach Kimberly has your hook-up! So come on...jump in.....the water is fine!!

For those of you who are just getting into the swimming fitness world...I have coached and taught many doing the same. I also consider those who had a bad experience in the water and will replace that negative with a positive which eventually equals success.I believe in conditioning my triathletes/Master swimmers first. This includes wearing equipment to tone muscle and build stamina...hence,then allows you to successfully complete the work-out. I individualize my swimmers (which makes me unique) based on skill and aliments. I always get into the mind of every swimmer (regardless of age) because I then can adjust my format accordingly. I have worked with those needing to pass the Military Swim Requirement and don't give up until we get it. I take in consideration what YOUR goals are and together we achieve them! Am I wimpy and a warm body coaching/teaching you??? Absolutely not! I am an ,"in the water Coach and demonstrate the drills and work with those needing me to be next to them". I have never had anyone unhappy with my approach towards their swimming instruction...in fact, I get clients resigning up for years because I can never stop teaching something new! In closing, I'm the right Coach for you because we'll go at the pace most suitable for your success.I'll have you running to the car with your gear and ready to go!
