About

I teach across different areas — swimming, water aerobics, dance, movement and theatre. In each discipline I have experience working with different groups, ages and skill levels: from babies and toddlers to adults, from complete beginners to more advanced students, from school groups to individual sessions.

I adapt my classes to suit the group or individual needs — whether that means adjusting the pace, the approach or the content. I bring the same commitment and attention to a private lesson as to a large group.

I can instruct in English, Finnish and Spanish.
