Erika Gaillard

Hi all! I'm Erika and I would like to be your new fitness captain. My main goal for this position would be to make the squad environment as supportive and light-hearted as possible, where everyone can feel excited to come swim. I will work to organise sets for all levels so that all members can get the most of out of the sessions. Also, I personally understand that swimming can be an intimidating and stressful sport sometimes but I hope that everyone will feel comfortable to approach me about any problems or concerns they may have as I am always happy to help. 

Additionally, I swam competitively before the pandemic hit so I will be available for anyone wanting help to better their technique work or simply wanting to get more comfortable in the water. Ultimately I want swimming with the fitness squad to not only be a great workout, but also a time where each swimmer can enjoy a break from all the university chaos.

Thank you!
