Seahorse Aquatic Centre is a real Paxton family affair.
With over 25 years experience of teaching swimming Denise is heavily involved in the day to day operations and teaching swimming. She is passionate about teaching babies and loves nothing more than seeing them graduate to independent swimming. Denise previously taught for 10 years in Cairns and since relocating here over 15 years ago has taught hundreds of children in the Townsville region. She regularly attends courses and workshops to upskill and train our staff. Denise opened Little Snappers Swim School 5 years ago with 60 students and now has over 600 swimmers at Seahorse Aquatic Centre.
Laura is the face of the business at the Reception desk and first point of contact for our clients. With a retail and customer service background she is a welcoming face for everyone who comes in.
Behind the scenes Stephen utilises his accountancy qualifications to ensure smooth running of our operation.
