Our Mission Statement
"To teach children and adults basic water safety and swimming skills in order to prevent drowning and promote lifelong physical activity."
Hello, I am Tanya Orozco, swim instructor and owner / operator of Desert Swim Academy, the home of desert fish. I love water and have been swimming all my life; at home, as a member of the Palm Springs High School swim team for four years, and as a water polo player for two years. I have been a certified swim instructor for eight years, and have also coached the Palm Desert High School Boys JV swim team. I have taught over 300 kids how to swim.
I currently hold American Red Cross certifications in Lifeguarding/First Aid, CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer, Water Safety and the Fundamentals of Instructor Training. The single most important thing I have learned over the years is that, for safety's sake, every child should have at least a basic knowledge of swimming.
