About

SWIMInfo returns to Gladstone, welcoming aquatic professionals back for an engaging afternoon of professional development with Tanya Newsome, SWIM Trainer, educator and Compliance and Projects.

With over a decade of experience in the aquatic industry, Tanya has worked across a wide range of roles including swim teaching, coaching, program and venue management, as well as training and assessment. Her broad industry experience provides valuable insight into the many pathways within aquatic education and the importance of strong leadership and development within swim schools and aquatic facilities.

Tanya’s background as a swim teacher has shaped her passion for supporting and developing new instructors, recognising the vital role aquatic teachers play in the lives of the people they teach. She is particularly passionate about building confident educators and helping others grow within the industry.

Tanya looks forward to reconnecting with the local aquatic community, sharing practical knowledge, and creating opportunities for learning, discussion and professional growth.
