Whether it's teaching little ones or grown-ups, I've had the joy of sharing my passion for swimming with all ages, helping everyone take that exciting jump into the water.
Embracing a calm and thoughtful demeanor, I prioritize creating a comfortable and attentive learning environment for my students. I take joy in connecting with each individual, identifying their strengths and weaknesses, and working collaboratively to achieve their goals.

"Maya instantly made me feel comfortable in the water. I had been postponing lessons for a long time, thinking it was too late for me to learn. Her encouragement and patience was incredible and just what I needed. Now, I can confidently say that swimming has become my therapy and my happy place."
- Astha S.
“Maya helped our son get comfortable putting his head under water within only a couple lessons. He went from zero to floating and kicking in no time.
Maya was sensitive to what my son was comfortable with, and helped him get through his fear while learning the basics to getting him up to the level he needed to be at. We are SO grateful to have found Maya, we have a swimmer now!”
- Beth F.
"Maya is an incredible instructor. I can't thank her enough for helping me overcome my fear of jumping into deep water, which had been a significant mental block for years. Her support has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders, and I am truly grateful."
- Michael D.
"My youngest had a near drowning experience and ever since then she refused to learn how to swim. Maya’s patience got her in the water and learning how to swim. These milestones were beyond the swimming lessons. Maya built trust, an understanding, and a relationship. This helped break down the deep fears and stubbornness. Maya’s expertise in teaching swimming is the foundation of what she does but the lessons go far beyond the water.
My eldest is 9 and has always been confident in the water. Maya’s background in dance has made my daughters stroke have perfect form and look like art. Maya isn’t just teaching swimming, she teaches the right way to swim. We are so grateful we found her!"
- Lauren K.
"Maya was is a real pleasure to work with. She's kind, knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. She immediately made our children feel comfortable in the water and their abilities grew exponentially within a short period of time. I would definitely recommend her to any parent looking for a swim instructor for their child(ren)."
- Nicole S.
"My 10 year old and 7 year old kids have been working with Maya for over a year now. We’ve had such a positive experience with Maya that we’ve now added our 3.5 year old to the lessons as well. Maya is an experienced swimming instructor who is passionate about teaching both kids and adults. She is very patient with the kids and they love her calm and friendly demeanour. My kids love working with Maya and eagerly look forward to their lessons with her!"
