It is my pleasure to wholeheartedly recommend Michael Kavanaugh. Over the past nine years, he has taught three of my four children how to swim, and his expertise and approach have left a lasting impression on our family. Beyond my own kids, many of my friends’ children and even some of my nieces and nephews have had the privilege of learning from him—and I never hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional swim instructor. Mike has a unique ability to connect with children. His kind and funny personality makes swim lessons something my kids always looked forward to, and they developed confidence and skills in the water under his guidance. My son, in particular, would count down the days until his next swim lesson—a testament to the positive and engaging atmosphere Mike creates. What sets him apart is not just his ability to teach but his genuine care for each child he works with. He fosters an environment where kids feel safe, supported, and encouraged to challenge themselves. It’s no wonder that every child he teaches seems to adore him. If you’re looking for a swim teacher who is experienced, caring, and truly gifted in working with kids, I can’t recommend Mike enough. He’s made an incredible impact on my family and so many others.
