Swimmin' the Blues was started in the summer of 2017 by two competitive swimmers, Megan Bodily and Savannah Blood. An experienced swimming lessons teacher, Kimi Scheffer, trained them to teach. This year, the teachers are Isabel and Benjamin Blood. You can read about them below. The pool we teach from is located at 3516 E Victory Rd, Meridian Idaho 83642.
Savannah joined a Meridian summer swim team when she was 5 years old, and has been swimming ever since. After 4 years of swimming with the Mountain View High School she considers herself a distance swimmer. Her favorite event is the 100 yard backstroke. Three summers ago she opened a swim school in her backyard pool. After training and teaching all summer she learned that teaching kids to swim is a lot of fun, and a great way to earn money for college! She has has been certified as a lifeguard through the Red Cross. Come take a class with her and learn to swim!
