Meet the Team
All our teachers are ASA or STA qualified with NPLQ Lifeguard or National Rescue Awards.
Chiggy Little
Owner and head instructor
After 25 years teaching, in schools and then in the water, I am now a fully qualified Solution Focused Therapist. I will be teaching adult 1-1’s and covering lessons when teachers are unavailable and continue to manage the pool.
Jess Edwards

Amy Gundry
Assistant
Amy has been assisting at the Dragon pool since she first went in the water to help her brother Sam gain confidence in his lessons 2 years ago. She is wonderful with the younger children and gaining confidence in every area. We can’t wait for her to turn 16 in order for her to qualify as the most experienced swim teacher ever.
Connie Little

Connie is a very energetic and confident teacher currently studying for a degree in Marine Biology. In the holidays she will be helping out with events days and intensive courses.
Neve Munday
Instructor
Neve has been at The Dragon Pool since 2017. She has a calm manner that encourages the younger children to become confident in the water very quickly, and her background as a competitive swimmer makes her ideal to teach older and more advanced children too.
