A competitive swimmer since the age of eight — with international honours in swimming and biathlon — she now channels that experience into teaching confidence and water safety to young adults of all abilities.

Back in Scotland, Lynne combines creativity, craft, and sport to make every session fun, engaging, and accessible for all.
