A bit about me
I've been swimming for as long as I can remember and I used to compete when I was younger. If on holiday, you can't keep me out of the water!
Inspiration
I love teaching children and adults how to swim. Seeing their progress and confidence grow is super rewarding.
Suzanna
Coach: Stages 1+ (2 Years +)
A bit about me
Hi, my name is Suzanna and I am a qualified level 2 teacher and coach. I have been teaching and coaching swimming for over 25 years and have taught all abilities from babies through to competitive level. I hold a J2 judge qualification which enables me to officiate at competitive swimming galas. Although my forte lies with the more advanced swimmers, nothing gives me more pleasure than watching a swimmer perform their first unaided swim.
My inspiration
I joined Cindy’s 2 year ago and was overwhelmed by how welcoming, inclusive and supportive they were. It is a pleasure to be part of their amazing team.

It's such a great achievement to see how the students improve at swimming and to see their confidence grow in the water.
Josh
Coach: Stages 1+ (2 years +)
A bit about me
As someone who has had a love for swimming from a young age, it is great passing on this skill to others and seeing them benefit from it. I have been a lifeguard since I was 16 so I understand the importance of learning water safety skills in order to have fun in the water and find your passion whether it be competitions, water polo, diving or anything else!
Inspiration
It’s such a great achievement to see how the students improve at swimming and to see their confidence grow in the water.

A bit about me
I used to be a competitive swimmer up until I went to university - I missed the pool and decided to get back into it through teaching!
Inspiration
It’s so rewarding seeing the kids develop in the pool - turning from shy little people into fully fledged swimmers brimming with confidence!
Coach: Ages 3 to 5
A bit about me
I was originally a competitive swimmer but made the switch to water polo when I moved to London to start university. I love swimming – I started coaching from a very young age, and I’m even studying a PhD in Fluid Mechanics!
Inspiration
Being in the water is such a big part in so many ways. I love being able to introduce other people to the water and see them love it just as much as me!
Stock manager: Sarah
A bit about me
I am passionate and dedicated to my work, and I strive for perfection in everything I do, so if you’re a messy teacher, watch out!
What I do
If you need anything stock wise for our swimmers or our teachers in Cindy’s Swim School, I’m your woman! I also manage all the pools’ maintenance, liaise with the office and generally help to keep CSS in tip top shape!
