"SWIM TO WIN", "I'M DIVING IN"
Coach Jay Weerman, Owner
Jay Weerman began his swim teaching career with the City of Westminster in 1987. After years of lessons, and thousands of kids, he switched to coaching in 1992, as Head Coach of the Westminster Flippers CARA summer team. In 1993, Jay began coaching the Broomfield Barracudas, a USA swim team. He continued that until March of 2005, leading the Broomfield Barracudas to their best ever state finish, along with having several state record holders, and national level athletes.
In 2005, Jay and his wife Monique started a new venture as owner and Head Coach of Colorado Swim Academy; Denver’s premier privately owned lesson academy and swim team. Since March of 2005, CSA Lessons has grown from 30 children in its program to over 200 in July of 2006, almost entirely based on word of mouth advertising. CSA Sharks Swim Team currently has over 70 swimmers, ranging from beginner to advanced High School swimmers.
Coach Monique Weerman, Owner
While Coach Jay may be the face of Colorado Swim Academy, Coach Monique is truly the backbone of the organization. A short list of her duties would include: Coach, Pool Coordinator, Chief Organizer, Team Registrar, Chief Financial Officer, Head of Recruitment, Head of Advertising, Team Outfitter, Meet Coordinator, Team Mom, and Head Cheerleader. Her contributions to the organization are many and priceless.
As a swimmer, Coach Monique grew up with the Boulder Valley Summer Swim League, swimming for the Hi-Mar Swim Team. Her specialty was the 200 IM.
In her down time, Coach Monique also enjoys chasing after three very active kids and one waterlogged husband.
