Bridget Jones-Cressman
Bridget picked up swimming the year after college in 2003 when she decided to take on the challenge of triathlons and knew there was no way out of spending time in the pool. It is through training for triathlons that she developed a passion for swimming. She knows that especially when picking up such a technical sport like swimming later in life that it takes a lot of time, practice, dedication and desire. Bridget enjoys teaching all those no matter what their level or ability to enjoy swimming and to unleash their potential.
