ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Tessa Rhodes, and I help children of all ages to develop a love of the water. I teach to respect it, not fear it. After more than fifteen years of coaching children, loads of research, and trial and error, I developed a series of techniques and exercises to help children of all ages overcome their fear of water and become confident swimmers.
