Nathan – Owner/Founder
Nathan founded PowerPacked Swimming when his oldest son, Caleb, was trying to learn how to swim. After being taken to multiple swim schools, Nathan told Caleb’s mother, “just give me 30 minutes with him, and he will be swimming.” She thought that he was being crazy! But 30 minutes later, their son could swim and she asked Nathan, “How did you do that in only 30 minutes?!” He said “it was a power-packed 30 minutes.” And that is how “PowerPacked Swimming” began.
Nathan has a B.S. Minor in Physical Education with a concentration in swim. He has been trained in Red Cross and YMCA instructional swim techniques and has been WSI certified multiple times. He is both a former 5A public high school and T.A.P.P.S swim coach.
Our goal at PowerPacked Swimming is to get you moving in the water! We focus on four primary benchmarks: Acclimation, Buoyancy, Glides & Starts, and Strokes. Swimming is not complicated. We want you to be confident in the water, so whether you are 2 days old or 172 years old — we would love to help you gain confidence and get you swimming.

Maggie – Deck Guard / Instructor
I began swimming in 2007 on a summer league team called the Fightin’ Frogs, and continued swimming competitively for several years, including on my high school swim team. I have a passion for teaching swimming and love helping students learn while having fun in the water! I chose PowerPacked Swimming because I want to be part of a team that is dedicated to making a positive impact on people’s lives in the most effective and efficient way possible.
Shea – Instructor
I don’t remember a time when I didn’t know how to swim. My mother said I never feared the water, always trying to keep up with my older brothers at the pool. After countless failed attempts, I finally swam off on my own, making my mom both proud and worried. From then on, I was eager to swim whenever I could. Since my school didn’t offer swim programs, I earned my Lifeguard Certification at 15 and later became a Water Safety Instructor. I spent summers coaching and lifeguarding, eventually expanding into coaching other sports across the country. I had the privilege of learning positive play coaching from top instructors in Los Angeles, but swimming has always been my passion. Coaching at PowerPacked allows me to combine my experience with the “PowerPacked Way” and continue learning. I love the personal attention given to each student, and I’m excited to grow as a coach alongside Houston’s best.
Joshua – Instructor
I started swimming when I was 4 years old and have been swimming ever since. My first experience teaching was in high school when I helped the younger players get acclimated to playing water polo. I learned how to coach by teaching my team plays and ways to improve in the pool. I’ve swum competitively for over a decade, and I love that PowerPacked allows me to continue pursuing my passion for coaching.
Lilly – Instructor
Hello my name is Lilly I started competitive swimming at the age of 9 until the end of the 12th grade of high school. I started teaching people of all ages back in 2018.
Matt – Instructor
I began swimming at a very young age, long before I can even remember. In 2015, I started teaching swimming for the Cy-Fair School District’s after-school program and continued my teaching journey at various swim schools. I chose PowerPacked Swimming because of the genuine care and passion they invest in their students, which I haven’t experienced at any other swim school. PowerPacked Swimming has truly empowered me to embrace my role as an instructor, allowing me to create personalized lesson plans tailored to each student’s unique needs. The experience has also enabled me to build meaningful relationships with my students, making learning to swim a fun and exciting journey for them.

TJ – Instructor
I started swimming in 1983. My first time swimming was at five years old at the YWCA, where I mainly stayed in the shallow end. At age 13, I made it to the state competition as part of the YWCA freestyle relay team.
I began teaching in 1996 at McGregor Park in the City of Houston, where I worked as a lifeguard, taught swim lessons, and coached a swim team that won numerous awards. While teaching for the City of Houston, one of my students gave me a recommendation for my excellent teaching skills. I also swam for my high school team at Jack Yates.
I discovered PowerPacked Swimming online, and through my experience working here, I’ve learned that this company truly cares about its swim coaches. I feel like PowerPacked is a family, with a strong team spirit.
