“We really love coach Carmelle. My daughter started at age two, afraid to have water touch her head, and now at age four she dives and back floats and started to swim freestyle. Coach Carmelle is patient, gentle and knowledgeable. I love to swim myself, and it was a pleasure to see my daughter getting to love swimming and get such a good foundation. Cannot wait to see what she learns next with coach Carmelle! Most highly recommend!”

“Carmelle is a wonderful coach. She makes lessons fun and enjoyable for the kids. She also challenges them and keeps them focused. The two other families we know that worked with Carmelle also have had very positive experiences.”

“Coach Carmelle has been an incredible coach and lovely person to get to know! We have been shocked to see the speed of progress in our 4 year old. Carmelle has found the perfect balance of keeping our energetic son focused and excited about swimming, I'm forever grateful for her given how critical this life skill is! I couldn't recommend her anymore!”

“Carmelle is the best swim instructor hands down! My 5 year old is not only swimming above her age range but has surpassed our expectations. We owe it all to Carmelle and her techniques. She makes it easy and works with the student to develop the skills they need to become confident little swimmers.”

“Coach Carmelle is an amazing swim coach. She is gentle and sweet, but firm and keeps our son on a schedule. Our 4 year old son progressed so much and learned to swim quickly. He is very confident in the water. I have countless other friends who have toddlers who have taken lessons from other instructors and have not shown much improvement. We feel very lucky to have met Coach Carmelle.”

“Carmelle is the absolute best! Our eldest daughter began lessons with Carmelle at 3-years-old, and still learns something new each session even at 7. Our youngest who is 4-years-old just started with Carmelle this summer and she’s already floating for almost two minutes. Carmelle keeps the lessons fun, fast and interesting. We cannot thank her enough for giving our daughters confidence and comfort in the water!

“Carmelle is an excellent swim coach! She had both our boys swimming by the ages of 3. Now they are focusing on learning various stroke at the ages of 3 and 6!”

“Carmelle is an amazing teacher.I am always blown away by the amount of patience she has while coaching my daughter. We started using Carmelle when my daughter was two and now at four she is a fish and very comfortable swimming in the water. Carmelle has great techniques that work with all ages and makes everything super fun!

“My oldest two daughters started classes with Carmelle in the summer of 2019. My oldest went from basic gliding to different strokes and jumping into the pool (which she wouldn’t do before) by the end of summer. My middle daughter went from only being willing to put her chin in the water and never wanting to even be slightly be splashed to gliding under water by the end of that summer. We picked up again this summer since Covid prevented us last year. My girls were a little rusty but have picked right off again like no time had passed. My youngest who is four just started and is loving it. Carmelle knows how to meet each child where they are and will gently push them out of their comfort zone without being overly pushy or aggressive. She also teaches a lot of safety techniques like how to safely get in and out of the pool, how to safely jump in/dive etc. And we’ve tried a few teachers and group lessons in the past. Carmelle was the absolute best fit by far. Highly recommend her!”

“Carmelle is simply the. best. Second summer in a row and our children couldn’t be happier. Professional, reliable and most of all fun!”

“Coach Carmelle has been an excellent swim instructor for our son. She got him from not wanting to go in to jumping into the pool and starting to swim and put his head in the water. And she was the first instructor who was able to make it stick. She’s patient but firm, exactly what my son needs.”

— Rhonda S. - 6/25/2021

My son was afraid to go underwater and jump off the side. By the end of lessons, he was floating, swimming freestyle, and treading water. We feel blessed to have found Coach Carmelle.”
