Meet Amanda
I began teaching swim lessons in 2013 during my senior year at the University of South Florida. I loved swimming and enjoyed teaching. I opened and ran a small business with my mom from 2017 until 2023, but I continued teaching swim lessons. In 2023, I launched my very own swim school. Some say I’ve finally fulfilled my destiny as a swim instructor.
Through Sunshine Swimming, I am able to pursue my passion and impact families. I use my life-saving skills to teach kids how to swim and teach parents and grown-ups how to teach the kids in their lives how to swim. Together, we empower swimmers to accomplish skills in the water they never thought possible.
Sunshine Swimming offers more than swim lessons. You can find all of my resources on SunshineSwimming.com, including:
- Virtual consultations and coaching to asses specific skills you or your child needs to practice to excel
- Coloring books to teach water safety
- Complimentary resource guide with the best products to keep your water days safe and fun
- Two water safety courses (launching January 2025)
- Free Learn to Swim program in Manatee County May-August
I truly love what I do and want to help you teach your child how to swim! I’m always happy to chat about all things swimming.
