The Team

Meet Your Coaches

Every Blue Otter instructor is certified, background-checked, and trained in our level curriculum - and genuinely loves teaching kids to swim.

Coach Sarah

Head Instructor

A former collegiate swimmer, Sarah has led the Blue Otter deck since 2013 and designed our level progression chart. She's happiest coaching the leap from Guppies to Otters.

Coach Marcus

Competitive Prep Lead

Marcus coaches our Dolphins and Competitive Prep squads. A USA Swimming–certified coach, he's sent dozens of Blue Otter swimmers on to club and high-school teams.

Coach Elena

Infant & Toddler Specialist

Elena runs our parent-and-tot and Infant Survival classes. Endlessly patient, she specializes in turning a first nervous splash into cry-free water comfort.

Coach Jordan

Stroke Development

Jordan breaks each of the four strokes into pieces kids can actually feel. Parents credit Jordan's drills for finally cracking their swimmer's breaststroke timing.

Coach Priya

Water Safety Lead

Priya keeps our deck StarGuard-certified and leads staff CPR/AED training. She also teaches our seasonal home water-safety workshops for parents.

Coach Danny

Private Lessons

Danny handles our private and semi-private lessons, from anxious first-timers to competitors polishing a single stroke before a meet.
