ROB HELLER (SWIM INSTRUCTOR)

Meet Your Instructor

I have been a lifelong swimmer, and have taught for years privately and groups, K-12, college and university, elderly and all abilities. I love the freedom that is possible to find in the water. I am always looking to make a swimmer more efficient, and I am very sensitive to someone’s swimming issues who isn’t having an easy time in this space.

As an artist and designer, I am constantly involved with the creative spirit; if I see something that can be smoothed out and made easier for all involved, it’s the action I am most interested in at any time. As a Yogi, I often tell folks that Yoga is the lens through which I understand this human condition… Yoga is a practice of awareness, ease, and empathy. These are the ideas that I wish to involve in any interaction I share. I believe when we cultivate this space; understanding and enjoyment are sure to follow… Whenever I get the opportunity to teach, we learn, laugh, and refine. We improve, and have a good time doing it!

I am a certified USMS Swim Instructor specializing in structured pool and open-water swim training, stroke improvement, and race preparation. I lead our Masters Swimming Program and run triathlon swim training camps, helping swimmers of all levels build technique, endurance, and confidence. My goal is to help athletes move through the water efficiently and feel strong and prepared—whether training in the pool or racing in open water.

Aquafit

AquaFit is a high-energy, low-impact class that blends strength and cardio in the water. Using water weights, push plates, and kickboards, this fun, full-body workout is low-impact and suitable for all ages.
