My Story
​I’m Coach Martin, originally from Jamaica. As a child, I was taught to avoid the water and experienced two near-drowning incidents that instilled a deep fear of swimming. Over time, I taught myself to swim and became a swimming instructor. After 10 years of teaching, I’ve developed a training style that helps my students feel safe and confident in the water. My mission is to assist both children and adults in overcoming their fears and feelings of helplessness, ensuring that no one has to endure the same struggles I faced.
