Instructors Available

Amanda
Amanda has been swimming for as long as she can remember and she has real passion for swimming, from the age of 10-16 she swam competitively for a club and got up to a regional level. Her biggest achievement during her time swimming was a Gold medal for 50m Butterfly when she was representing her club at the county competition at the age of 14. Amanda likes the Swimming nature programme as its very hands on and the classes are small so therefore you can spend more time with each child and make the lessons more enjoyable for the children. She really enjoys teaching all ages for so many different reasons but one of the reasons she enjoys teaching the younger ages is because she can make the lessons so much fun and she can see how much they enjoy it. Also, she thinks that when you’ve been teaching them from their first lesson seeing the progress they make is so enjoyable to see. Then from penguin level and above, she thinks it is very fun to teach the children about all the correct techniques of the strokes and about the starts and turns. But as her favourite stroke used to be butterfly that is always a fun stroke to teach for Amanda. Amanda chose to become a swimming teacher for swimming nature because she saw the way the teachers taught the lessons as she used to be a lifeguard at the Lensbury and she really enjoyed watching and as she really enjoyed swimming Amanda thought that she would like to become a teacher and ever since then she has really enjoyed it.

Zoe has been a swimming teacher for over 10 years now and taught all ages and abilities. She has always loved swimming as a sport and started swimming competitively at the age of 10 and since then swam at national level. Zoe has represented her country, Greece, in numerous swimming competitions and meets. She represented England in the European Masters championships in 2016, and managed to bag a European record in the 4x50 medley relay with her Teammates. Zoe and her Teammates also managed to break six World Records in 2016,2017 and 2018, again in relays. Zoe is bilingual, fluent in Greek and English, fun and full of enthusiasm for what she does and has a passion for teaching swimming to meet the needs of her love to pass on experience and learning to others.

In Zoe's spare time, she enjoys swimming and when not swimming she is kept busy with cycling and running and eating lots of chocolate.
