Eli has been a swimmer his whole life, at both the club and summer swim team level. He spends his summers working at Strattonwood. This is his third year lifeguarding and second-year teaching group lessons.

He loves watching students gain skills and grow in their confidence in the water. He is quiet by nature and enjoys interacting positively one on one with students.

Bella is an experienced swimmer with a passion for teaching. She was a Head Coach for Strattonwood’s swim team two summers ago and has taught lessons at the pool for over four years. She has been a swimmer herself for most of her life, competing at both summer and club levels.

She prioritizes fundamental skills, confidence in the water, and positive experiences. She is a natural encourager and strong communicator – and she loves people! Learning to swim is a privilege, and she is incredibly grateful to offer that opportunity to her community.

Outside of the pool, she is an incoming Senior at Baylor University, where she is majoring in Economics with the hope of attending medical school to become a pediatrician. This summer she will be writing medical school applications, giving limited availability for coaching.

Please reach out to her with any questions, she would love to chat!
