Growing up in South Africa meant spending a lot of time in the water. At the age of 10 Katie developed a love for swimming as well as cricket, triathlons and fitness. Her heart was in open water swimming compettions but when she couldn’t compete anymore she knew coaching was her true calling.

After graduating high school she studied fitness and opened up her own personal training business. Shortly after Katie did her swimming degree and opened up her own swim school in South Africa.

She loves helping others develop their own story and passing on her love for swimming!
