Join Us for Swimming Lessons
CCC has highly trained independent contractors with a variety of water safety certifications. Coach Carmody has personally overseen the training of every instructor, and ensures recurring technique and swim safety training throughout the entirety of each summer. Most of our team has been a pro around water for longer than your child has been alive, and all of them have a passion for what they do. We have several instructors returning to teach lessons again for summer 2025! Learn more about each instructor below!
Hi, my name is Lucas Arizpe, and I’m excited to work with the CCC this summer! I’m a freshman at the University of Texas at Dallas studying biology on the premed track. I’ve spent a large portion of my life by the water, almost always by the pool over the summer. I’ve had swim lessons myself when I was younger, and it made a huge impact on my enjoyment and appreciation of the water.
I’ve been a certified emergency medical technician since May of 2025, as well as a 12 lead EKG and AHA BLS certification, which comes with plenty of knowledge and experience in how to handle child safety. I’m also an older brother to my little sister, which has taught me a lot in regards to how to work with younger kids.
This is my first year working with the CCC this year, and I’m looking forward to making a positive impact through teaching such a meaningful skill like swimming. Hope to see y’all soon!

Currently I work as a lead daycare teacher and a nanny for two little girls while working for CCC Training. Children have always been my niche and swimming is my favorite activity so I’m eager to begin work with them in a different environment with team CCC again this summer!
We always try to keep the same instructor with the same kids since consistency seems to work best for both sides of the lessons. However, we cannot and do not guarantee this is always going to be the case. This is common practice with all other lesson facilities.
