Meet The Team

Eri Coles

Instructor

With SwimWay since August 2024

Swimming has been my passion for almost my entire life. I began swimming lessons at the age of four to help manage my asthma. It quickly became a significant part of my life, leading me to swim competitively at regional and national levels in Japan.

After graduating from Boston University in the USA, I spent nearly two decades working in product management and marketing for a global blue-chip company. However, in 2015, I decided to pursue my childhood dream of becoming a swimming teacher. I wanted to share my passion for swimming instead of continuing at a desk job for the rest of my life!

This decision has proven to be incredibly rewarding. Words cannot describe the joy and fulfilment I feel when I see my students become confident and competent swimmers.  I am also completing a diploma in therapeutic counselling, which I have found very helpful in connecting with my students.

Swimming is more than just a life skill; it offers numerous physical, psychological, emotional, and social benefits. I am dedicated to providing inspiring and progressive swimming lessons to swimmers of all ages and levels. It would be a privilege to be part of your child’s swimming journey.
