“Most of my swimmers eventually ask me: “Coach, who taught you how to swim?”
My Swim Resume Started when I was 6 years old and my neighborhood pool was just a few blocks from my house. I used to go every day and the liguards would make me stay in the shallow end because I was not a strong swimmer yet. Well, that did not work for me as I saw all the big kids going off the diving boards and playing sharks and minnows among many other swim games in the diving well. As you can say I was self taught. When I was 7 yo
I joined the swim team and it was a whole new wonderful world of swimming with technique. I became a part of a swim family of 100+ people, learned more about all the strokes, and won an abundance of medals and ribbons. I swam competitively all year round until I was 18 years old. Swimming Varsity all 4 years in High School was the highlight of my teen years.
I went on with schooling at an Art Institute for Fashion Merchandising, therefore no swim team. From there I managed retail, did corporate sales, and always worked. Every time I got burnt out or was unhappy with just having “A Job”, I would coach a swim team. As much as I ABSOLUTELY LOVE COMPETITIVE SWIMMING … It literally runs through my veins,
I felt it was time to find my own niche.I’m seeking a more personal connection with my swimmers and their journey of learning how to swim all while seeing how their new found confidence in the water enhances their lifestyle. This is where Learn To Swim with Coach Krueger began.
