Instructor: Gus Warnholtz
I am passionate about teaching children and
adults how to swim, as I believe it is an
essential skill in life. Teaching kids (and adults)
to be safe in and around water is my priority.
Second is for them to master moving and
having fun in the water with confidence,
focusing on improving their water skills and
stamina. Third is to introduce them to
Mastering swimming strokes and swimming
competition. I am a retired aerospace engineer
who has coached swimmers and triathletes for
more than 20 years. I was also a PE teacher in
an elementary school, teaching swimming for two years. I swam competitively in High School and College and am still actively training for triathlon and open water competitions.
I enjoy working with kids enormously and base my instruction on fostering a strong trust link, mutual respect, and fun. I have been married for 37 years and I am currently teaching my grandkids how to swim!
