About Our Staff

Over the years, we at New Settlement Community Center have sought to provide people of all ages with the skills to keep themselves safe and live healthy lives through various services and programs. Our staff includes world-renowned artists and performers, nationally recognized instructors, highly credentialed facilitators, and a top-notch administrative team.

We offer swimming opportunities for individuals as young as 6 months of age. Our aquatics program has been structured around both the Red Cross and YMCA national guidelines. Our Senior Aquatics staff are all Red Cross certified instructors; many are USA SWIM coaches and have worked for the Red Cross, YMCA, & several top aquatics centers in the New York City area. All aquatics staff is provided with in-service skills training every two months as well as 16 hrs. of professional development three times a year over the course of 4 days each.
