More About Coach Laura

I’ve been a swimming instructor for 16 years, prior to that I swam competitively for 10 years. Currently I am a private swim coach at Mashpee Fitness. I teach youngsters (learn to swim), school aged swimmers as well as adults how to improve their stroke. I have trained triathletes as well as USA swimmers while working here. I also work with adults who want a low impact form of exercise in the pool, I love the variety of ages and stages- I cannot “choose” what level I like best because I LOVE them all! I am CPR certified.

I swam USA Swimming with Cape Cod Swim Club for 10 years earning numerous medals over that time while placing in the top 10 in New England for each age group. I trained with the best! I became a lifeguard at age 16 and instructed beach lessons at several private beaches, pools and recreation departments. While in college I made my living off of swimming instruction at the college pool. It was a blast!

A typical session is not so typical… my trainings are highly individualized depending on what you (the athlete) wants to see improved. There are so many different levels of swimmers. If I am teaching a lesson for a competitive swimmer I will watch him/her swim for the warm up. I will constructively critique the stroke for enhancements. I will apply drills to reinforce the desired skills. We work on endurance, breathing techniques and mental preparation for competition. There will be a timed interval workout planned out based on your level and always a cool down. I always give instructions and workouts for practice during the week.

Client Reviews

If you are looking for a coach who will not only help develop and sharpen skills at any level but also challenge and encourage you, Laura is a great choice. In addition to her qualifications, she is a wonderful person. Highly recommended.

Coach Laura was great! First swim lesson went well. I came away with a series of tips I could use right away. Looking forward to next training session.
