Our great teachers for your swimming journey

Elly
It is my pleasure to give you the practical gift of the ability to swim well and confidently.
I love to swim, for over 20 years my passion has also been my job at PHL and the Ponds, inspiring my open water swimming.
Starting as a lifeguard, I decided to combine with swim teaching in 2008 getting my ASA level 1, furthering my studies completing my ASA level 2 in 2015.
Gaining experience working in swim schools, I soon became an independent instructor.
I would be delighted for you to swim confidently in a variety of waters like I am able to do so.
