SWIM LESSONS

The goal of our swim lessons is to help children develop water safety and confidence while also learning basic stokes, floating, technique, and fun in the water. 

Hi, I'm Lula and I have been teaching lessons and coaching at EXSC for 4 years now. I have been a competitive swimmer since I was 5. I have taught lessons to kids of all ages but my preferred age range is 3 to 8 years old. I am open to teaching all kids, no matter their abilities in the water! My absolute favorite part of teaching lessons is seeing kids swim around with their families in the deep end at the end of summer.

My name is Luca Pirone and this is my third year working at the Exchange Pool. I am a lifeguard, coach, and swim instructor. Alongside that I am a competitive swimmer for the club team YOTA. I have been swimming for about 9 years and love it so much. I like to spend time relaxing outside, with friends and family and my dogs, and of course, the pool! I am super excited for the summer and can’t wait to meet everyone!

Hi I'm Harper Ludwig and next year I will be a junior at Chapel Hill High School. This is my second summer coaching and lifeguarding at the Exchange, but first summer doing lessons here. Before the Exchange I had done lessons at my neighborhood pool for a few years, but I am super excited to do it here this year! I have been swimming for my whole life so I feel very comfortable in the water and cannot wait to help everyone get to the same point! I love teaching lessons because of how personalized they can be for every kid and because of how quickly you can see growth. 

Hey I’m Casey, I have been a competitive swimmer for YOTA for 10 years and this will be my 3rd summer coaching for the exchange and second summer doing swim lessons. This summer I plan on competing in the Paralympic trials in hope of making the Paris 24’ Paralympic team. My favorite strokes are freestyle and  backstroke. I love swimming and spending time at the pool and look forward to having another great summer.

Hi I’m Louisa Sanoff, a rising junior at Chapel Hill High School, and I am super excited to teach private lessons. This is my first year coaching, and I am also a lifeguard at the exchange. I have been a part of the YOTA swim team for 8 years and I love it. I swim almost every day and just cannot get enough of the pool! I love kids and teaching swimming seemed like a good fit. It is good to get one on one time with kids to help them work on specific things one might not get to work on in a bigger group. I would love to be a part of helping them. Please reach out if you have any questions or want to schedule a lesson! 

Hi I’m Kyla Conner, and I can’t wait to teach private lessons! This is my first summer coaching and life guarding for the exchange, but I look forward to many more. I’m going into my junior year at Carrboro High School, and I have been swimming competitively for the past 5 years. I’m really excited to meet everyone, and to get started with private lessons!
