My my is Meg Patrick and this is my swim lesson Program website.
Growing up in Glendale California, swimming became a part of my life as a small child. My sister and I joined the local swim team in the summer months and continued to swim competitively through High School. I contuned on to Cal State Los Angeles, where I earned my degree in Physical Education. After college I had the opportunity to teach physical education at The Chandler School, Crest View Prep and Marlborough School in Los Angeles. I am currently a Age group coach with Hancock Park Swim Club, specializing with the Novice swim groups.
I'm proud to say I'm in my 28th year of teaching children how to swim. I'm considered very patient, caring and teach progressions from the very novice to advanced swimmer. I have coached and taught swimming since 1986.
