As the owner of Ci Renee Swim, teaching water safety & correct swimming technique is my main objective. Being born and raised on Long Island, swimming is a skill that I was fortunate enough to have learned at a very young age. As far back as I can remember, I have always enjoyed being in all types of water. As a young girl, I vividly remember swimming in the ocean with my cousins almost every summer.

 

At the age of 16, I turned my love for the water into a job. I decided to get my lifeguard certification and apply to Saf-T-Swim (a local swimming school) as a lifeguard. I worked as a lifeguard for a few months, watching over the daily swim lessons. I was then trained by the co-owners of the company to teach swimming lessons. I was taught how to teach proper swimming techniques and water safety to clients of all ages ranging from 2 month old babies to adults of all ages. After completing my training, I went on to teach hundreds of clients at Saf-T-Swim over the course of 5 years.

As I entered my young twenties, I went on to college and therefore had to leave my position at Saf-T-Swim. During my summer breaks from college, I continued to teach private swim lessons for clients at their personal pools. During the summer of 2018, I decided to create Ci Renee Swim and turn this passion into an official summer business. Over the last 8 seasons, I have had the pleasure of teaching countless children and adults all of Long Island. 

​

As we move into Season 9, I am looking forward to expanding & providing this lifelong, life-saving skill to many more children & adults on Long Island!
