Sarah Milne

"Hi my name is Sarah, I am 28 years old, and have two children. I have been a Water Lilies Swimming School swimming instructor for just over a year. I have over six years teaching experience and have worked at numerous pools in and around Norwich. I started off working as a Lifeguard and fell in love with teaching when I was asked to assist a lesson. I then went on to gain my ASA level 1 and 2 teaching qualifications. 

This year, I have gone onto gain the STA baby and pre school qualification as well as Birthlight Aquanatal Yoga. I have always had a great interest in exercise in pregnancy and am looking to continue gaining qualifications so that I can go on to offer classes for postnatal, back ache, obesity, MS and many more. 

I currently teach at Quidenham, Harleston and Bush Green. I thoroughly enjoy teaching with Water Lilies Swimming School and feel very proud to be part of such an exceptional swim school."

Matt Marshall

“Hi I'm Matt. I am 32 years old and have seven children (so hopefully child friendly by now).

My oldest has been swimming with Water Lilies Swimming School for about eight years now, which is how I know Treacle and the gang.

Originally from Birmingham, I learnt to swim with school - earning myself a free pass to the local swimming pool. From there I taught myself by watching the Olympic swimmers and other swimmers at the pool.

Teaching swimming is a new career path for me and after receiving my STA teacher qualification, this year I started working for Water Lilies Swimming School. And I love every minute of it. The role is so rewarding. I cherish every child’s achievement and I am proud to be a part of it.”
