Swim Instructor/ Lifeguard

Rodrigo De Souza

As a dedicated swim instructor and certified lifeguard, I’ve spent the past 4 years teaching children the joys and importance of swimming. I believe learning to swim should be fun, engaging, and empowering, not just another task. My goal is to create a positive, supportive environment where every child can build confidence and develop at their own pace. With patience, creativity, and energy, I’ve helped many young swimmers grow from nervous beginners into strong, confident swimmers. Each lesson is designed to be both enjoyable and impactful, instilling a lifelong love for swimming and water safety.

Swim Instructor/ Lifeguard

Aren Malekian

I’m Aren Malekian, and I’ve been passionate about basketball and swimming for over 12 years. I played both competitively, including two years on my high school swim team and four years of high school basketball. For the past three ears, I’ve coached young athletes in both sports, helping them grow in skill and confidence. I enjoy working with kids and focus on teaching values like hard work, perseverance, and teamwork to make a lasting, positive impact.
