Kristin Levy | owner

During high school and college, I played water polo and was on the swim team. Since I have a passion for the water and for teaching children, I started giving swimming lessons to kids as a part time job. Due to my unique teaching methods and my innate ability to work with children, I developed a large private client base throughout Southern California. Eventually my part time job developed into a full time business. I have taught hundreds of children how to swim. I developed the Aqua Buddies teaching concept as a way to satisfy the overwhelming need for quality swim instruction.

Hi, my name is Jen Lin. I have been swimming for over 15 years. During college, I was a lifeguard as well as a swim teacher. I took a small break and pursued a life of professional cooking. My love for the water brought me back to swimming, and I have now been teaching with aqua buddies for 5 years now. It has been a joy and excitement to watch children learn and have fun at the same time.
