Coached by a Pro, Loved by Kids
I'm a former professional swimmer who found my true calling teaching kids to love the water. After years of competing at the highest level, I wanted to share that passion — and make sure every child in Orange County has the skills and confidence to be safe and happy in the pool. I take kids from 24 months and up, and I genuinely love every single lesson.

I'm so glad I found Coach Robin to teach my 3rd grader to swim. Previously she had been learning from various different coaches but never seemed to make much progress. She couldn't even manage one lap across our community pool. After she started with Coach Robin, she has really made a lot of progress and can now swim 20 laps in freestyle with the help of flippers. She is now learning the breaststroke from him and her form looks good. Highly recommend him if you really want your kids to learn how to swim with good form and technique. As a side note, his wife, Lisa helps manage the scheduling. She is a joy to work with. They are a great team.

We are so grateful for coach Robin! Our child was very afraid of the water and lacked confidence at first. The coach was incredibly patient, gentle, and encouraging, helping our child feel safe and comfortable step by step. We have seen such a positive change in their confidence and swimming skills. It is wonderful to see our child now enjoy being in the water. We highly recommend him to any parent whose child is nervous or afraid of swimming! Thank you coach!

We had such an amazing experience with Robin! Our son is only 2½ years old and took a two-week intensive swim course with Robin. He is now swimming on his own! 🥳 🏊♂️ Robin was absolutely wonderful with him. He is incredibly calm, patient, knowledgeable, and knows exactly how to work with young children while making them feel comfortable and confident in the water. I would 100% recommend Robin to any parent looking for an amazing swim instructor, especially for little ones. Thank you so much, Robin!

Robin is an amazing swim coach and we are so grateful to have been referred to him by our friends! He is kind, patient, and quickly built rapport with my 3.5 year old son! My son runs out the door to go to swim and it is the highlight to his week, and he is gaining confidence and making great progress! Highly recommend!

Couldn't say enough great things about our experience with Coach Robin. Our son has been swimming with him for over a year and his skills and confidence continue to get better and better. He loves swimming with him and looks forward to his sessions that we even do it twice a week now.
