More About Coach Raminta

Coached swimming since I was 16, with 8 years of experience. Coaching all levels of swimmers from babies (youngest baby i worked with was 6 month old girl, whose mom wanted her to be comfortable in water, now she is 3 and can swim by herself) to adults. Mostly held private lessons in Dallas, TX. Also served as graduate assistant coach at SMU for 2 past years, where I worked with fellow student-athletes and Olympians.
Coach at Fullerton Aquatics center.

I'm an Olympian, World, and European championships participant. Competed at NCAA level through college years for SMU. Have been nominated most improved athlete of the year, best athlete in my home city for 5 years in a row. Have won many national and international titles.

For a typical swim lesson with a person who knows how to swim and aims to improve, I usually focus on using drill techniques and working on the weaknesses I notice from the first lesson.

Client Reviews

Rami is amazing!

My children met with Coach Rami (and her husband Coach Omar) a few times for coaching sessions. Both coaches gave feedback that has been helpful and met my children where they are at in age and ability. The extra support has been beneficial; both have been applying what they have learned during their regular practice.

Halle enjoyed her session a great deal and is trying to follow through in swim practice. She’s looking forward to another session.

Coach Raminta was very thorough and knowledgeable. I had an amazing swim session with her, and my form is already much improved after only one session. She’s awesome!

My son had a great two beginning sessions with Coach Raminta. She emphasis on technics and form. Joel enjoyed the way she provided information and the routine used to improve his strokes. We will return as many times we can and will recommend Coach Rami to our friends. Thanks,

Coach Rami was highly recommended to us as a breaststroke specialist by olympic swimmer Isabella Arcila, who privately trained my daughter while she was living in Los Angeles....We commuted an 1.5 to Orange County on a cold, gloomy day by California standards, and not to mention my daughter was under the weather. She was emotional before the start of the training due to illness but was able to find her fighter's spirit to push through the session.. Coach Rami instructed her through various swim sets while observing technique. She quickly diagnosed the flaws in my daughter's breaststroke and free style mechanics. She was very professional and attentive to my daughter's needs. Last night I watched her first practice since receiving private training from coach Rami. It was a noticeable difference; she was shooting her arms with more power on the breaststroke and her freestyle catch improved.... And as a added note, my daughter loved coach Rami's accent. Good luck coach!
God speed.

Coach Raminta was very quick to respond to my need for a coach as I had just a little time to make some improvements to my training prior to an event I was signed up for. She was able to help me figure out what my issues were right away and provided me with some great training tips to help me get more comfortable. She was very easy going and didn't make me feel like I was doing a million things wrong, just that I needed to really have more confidence and push myself to keep going. Unfortunately, I was only able to meet with her for that one time due to my work travel schedule, but had I had more free time to schedule another session, I definitely would have.

Very accommodating. Clear with her instructions and very knowledgeable with her sport. My 9 y/o daughter likes her style of training and responds really well to her coaching, that's what matters most! We'll definitely recommend Coach Rami.

Based from the other reviews, you can tell that Raminta is a great coach. But I was a bit hesitant since most of the reviews were based from her coaching kids. I'm about 46 years old and have been doing triathlon for a good 4 years now and competing in short and long local events as well as half and full IronMan events. I was looking for a coach that will provide me a 1:1 feedback that no videos of yourself can provide.
On my first session with Rami I have learned a lot. Things I thought I had good form needed more tweaking. She understood how pool swimming is totally different from open water swimming. From the stretched arms to the high elbow early catch, and your body gliding through the water, both a necessity for pool and open water, Rami was able to provide instructions I can understand and relate. She wasn't simply providing you "exercises", she was providing you skills and direct feedback catered to your own type of swim...to be a faster swimmer.

Coach Raminta was a great coach. My daughter's loved her, she is very calm and sweet when teaching. Explained to them very clear what they had to do, and is very patient. We are looking forward to meeting with throughout summer.

Coach Raminta is a great coach!! my daughter was very comfortable working with her and saw immediate results in her swim time using instruction she received from her during her first session.

My experience with Coach Rami was informative and helpful. I still apply what I learned when I go to swim practice.
Raminta is not only very polite and friendly with kids, she knows her job beat. She has been very patient with our five year old. She always postponed the lessons when it wasn't sunny. Our son had never been in pool before but thanks to Raminta that he enjoys pool a lot. Our son knew not much english, Raminta tried her best to make him understand instructions by signals. Our son can be in pool all by himself now and we will definitely like her to teach him more skills in future.
Raminta Dvariskyte is an incredibly talented and patient instructor to my 1 year old son! She has been incredibly flexible with us as we've had to change our appointment many times due to weather, sometimes with very little notice. Our son can also be quite fussy and she is very kind and patient with him. I am so thankful for her technique and communication with him, he is much more comfortable in the water!
