About Coach Dana
Coach Dana grew up in California, so being outside in the sunshine and around water was normal. It’s also in her blood—she comes from a family of swimmers! If Coach Dana wasn’t at the pool or beach swimming or surfing, she was likely running through a sprinkler. She started swimming competitively in 1976 and has been working in aquatics since 2005.
Coach Dana is professionally trained and experienced in teaching private and group lessons, coaching, lifeguarding, instructing water safety, and operating and maintaining pools. She has used her experience to develop her own style of swim instruction with proven success.
Help Coach Dana teach the world about water safety so lives can be saved, one lesson at a time. This is her passion. This is Coach Dana’s intent. There are far to many lives lost unnecessarily. Everyone can swim. There are just a few tricks to it. Learn these tricks by enrolling in lessons with Coach Dana today!
