Coach Emilee
Hi, my name is Emilee, and I am Coach Heather's daughter. I've taken over Water Fit Kids Swim Program! I am so excited to continue what
my mom has built and will provide a safe, structured, and fun experience for all swimmers!
With six years teaching experience, I can teach it all: beginning basics like survival back floats to endurance training for racing and everything in between. I am certified CPR/1st aid, keeping my students safe is my main focus. Fun fact: I'm currently an NCAA elite swimmer with over 12 years of competitive swim experience. I love passing on what I learn in the pool down to my students!
When I'm not in the pool, I am studying to become a speech-language pathologist. Because of this, I really value patience, encouragement, and meeting each child's needs. I understand that every child learns differently, and I do my best to create a positive and supportive environment where they can feel safe and successful.
My goal is to teach each student/swimmer how to be water safe, how to swim with proper technique but most of all, build swim confidence, while having fun!
"Water Fit Kids ARE Water Safe Kids!"
Water Fit Swim Program, Swimming is Fun!
WATER SAFETY & Program Outline:
Water Safety/Education is so important. We teach each swimmer water safety skills that are age appropriate. Yes, even our baby swimmers are taught water safety. Whether it's individual water safety techniques or water safety on how to help others, Water Fit Kids are educated on how to be SMART swimmers. We've had Water Fit Kids save lives because they knew what to do when another swimmer was in distress.
Water Fit Kids swim program operates on a passing level curriculum: which encompasses Water Safety first, then the fine points of "how to swim" next. We teach all four competitive strokes that will prepare you to join any swim team. Swimmers are taught in a heated, 25 yard pool.
Swimmers will gain endurance as they learn their swim strokes.
Endurance = Confidence= Water Fit and Water Safe Kids!
