About Mack’s Mystical Mermaiding

Hi I'm Mack! I grew up in Arizona and have always had a love for the pool. I started my journey on the local swim team, and artistic swimming team, and eventually became a lifeguard. During my time lifeguarding I taught swim lessons, coached artistic swimming and lead water exercise classes amongst other things.

Recently, I found the mermaid community and decided to follow my dreams and become a real mermaid myself.

I am currently Lifeguard Certified through The American Red Cross. I also was previously a certified Water Safety Instructor for 9 years through the American Red Cross. I am working towards getting AEA certified to teach Water Exercise.

All classes are available in Mesa, Arizona. If you are outside of Mesa, please contact me before scheduling a traveling lesson.

What my students have to say...

“I have been so impressed with Mackenzie's Swim Exercise class. She constantly makes them interesting and fun. She designs her workouts focused on specific muscle groups. She continuously, researches new techniques and exercises to keep things interesting. I would recommend her classes to those new to Swim Exercise and those that have been doing it for years.”

Mackenzie was a great addition to our summer fun. Her sessions are challenging while still being a lot of fun! You don't always realize you worked your muscles until the next morning. She is bright, fun and upbeat! We look forward to our next session!

Mackenzie is amazing! My daughter went from being scared of the pool to completely swimming, floating on her back right after she jumps in, and being able to climb out by herself. She loves the water now, and I feel so confident in her abilities and survival skills in the water.

If you are looking for a swim instructor for your kids, I highly recommend Mackenzie!! She has been giving my youngest children swim lessons for the past 2 summers and we love her.  She started when the girls were 2 and 5 years old. Mackenzie is patient, kind, and very knowledgeable in her sport.

I have 2 very different children. One LOVES the water, and the other was terrified when she first started. Mackenzie has been able to structure lessons around both of their needs. Both of the girls look forward to their lessons every week, and I have enjoyed watching them grow and become comfortable in the water. You won't find anyone better!
