James Hardy
Substitute Coach
James coached the Temescal Aquatic Masters for four years starting in 2000. James can still be seen coaching a Temescal workout from time to time as a substitute. As the morning coach, he defined his role as "getting the cardiovascular system pumping". Attend a morning practice with James and your day will be different! James comes to the team with 15 years of experience in coaching, from youth swimming to adult lessons. James finds his rewards in coaching from "seeing a person go from fear of water to swimming a width across the pool, and seeing a swimmer go from a short stroke to a long and smooth stroke."
