    Do my kids listen to me? No. Do they listen to Coach Traci? - resounding YES. Coach Traci is so good with kids and patient with parents. She is able to get all strokes technique across and work through small details that make a difference. Thanks to Coach Traci, my boys were able to join the swim club we could only dream about in the past. Once you come to her, you will become a big fan, speaking from our family experience.

    Traci is so motivating and really professional in the way she organizes her programs. Her story of swimming the English Channel is such an inspiration to me, and her passion for swimming really comes through in the way she teaches. I have two young boys who are competitive swimmers and my goal is to get them to truly love the water. This is what Traci teaches, and it is invaluable.

  • ★★★★★

    Traci has the rare ability to combine fun and positivity with top notch, detail-oriented instruction. We started going to her a few years ago for basic swim lessons for my daughter. It felt like we went from struggling to get across the pool to learning all four strokes... Not only did Traci have my daughter confidently swimming in no time, she fostered a love of swimming in her that I know she will carry with her for the rest of her life.

    My son has been swimming with Traci for years. She's wonderful, she finds ways to get him past things he's struggling with. She's a great coach, mechanics-wise and mentally.

    Traci has an excellent natural rapport with children of all ages as well as a thorough understanding of stroke mechanics. She taught all 3 of my children how to swim and I would highly recommend her!
