Phil

Hi I’m Phil, I first started teaching here at Swim Like A Fish in 2023, and hopefully you can still see me around teaching babies, children and adults how to be more confident and in control in the water.

I live out in Templestowe with my mum, Paula; my older sisters Laura and Alice; and our dog, a labradoodle named Daisy.

Swimming has always been a big part of my life. I’ve swam in the Yarra and the beaches on Phillip Island every summer with my family for years. I’m a certified surf beach lifesaver. I did squad swimming a fair few times a week until I was 16. And I still participate in the open water swimming season with my uncle every year. 

Swimming has personally taught me the benefits of good health and trying my hardest, so I get to enjoy being the best version of myself.

Feel free to give me a wave or say hello if you see me around. I look forward to meeting your family and helping show your kids how to be a happier and more confident swimmer :)
