Former member of the CAL men's swim team (2011-2016). 2x American Record Holder, 5x NCAA Div I National Champion, 2x NCAA Div I National Team Champion, 15x NCAA All-American, and was on USA National teams (2009-2011). Over the past 4 years I have served as the National Group Assistant Coach and the Senior Group Lead Coach at Scottsdale Aquatic Club. This past August I was given the reigns Senior Group. Through mindful healthy program of individual personal development, mental health practices, overall athlete development all while making each individual feel 'seen' and welcomed, the group grew from a roster size of 16 in August, to 45+ by the end of March. I did not have the best experience in my swimming career which also spilled over into my overall development as a human being; this was much in part to a coach I had in my life. To which my driving force in why I do what I do is: "I never want an athlete to feel the way I felt growing up". 

Hi my name is Alyssa Muniz, I am a swim coach here in Hawaii but will be relocating to Pensacola Florida in July.  I was a college swimmer at a D2 school for 4 years.  I have been coaching swimming for about 7 years.  I have taught all ages of swimmers and coached them. I have signed several athletes to division 1 and 2 schools.

Passionate and innovative swim coach with 10+ years of experience with advance training in strength & conditioning coaching for all age group levels. Technically competent in all facets of coaching swim teams at regional, national and international level competitive events with a strong focus on the short, medium and long term progression and individual development of each swimmer in the program. I have excellent interpersonal and communication skills gained through my coaching experience of athletes from different ages and nationalities. I have a keen insight for innovation, and as such, I developed a biomechanics analysis video tool to gain the maximum performance for each athlete. I am also qualified to teach first aid and basic life saving’s techniques.

I am a big believer in the idea of how one's body feels, and what is going through one's mind before and after each race.  Helping with ideas, race strategy and mental positivity is one of my biggest focus points as a coach. When getting to the heart of the season in regards to racing, meets and practice there is no other place I would rather be than on the pool deck.  Being able to coach everyday, talking to the team and getting to know them/what they want to work on throughout the practice, week or even the season really helps me focus on what should be prioritized when writing for practice groups.  I have had the great fortune to work with wonderful athletes, and they are a huge reason why I love coaching.  Being able to connect with them and just help when they are on and off the pool deck really helps make that connection stronger, and also helps build trust between myself and the team.  

Talented, enthusiastic coach with desire and ability to nurture the individual, motivate, and direct others while maintaining high interest and achievement. Accomplished coach and educator with demonstrated ability to create and develop swimmers with focus on team building, growth mindset, sportsmanship, character education, mental training, and fun. Articulate communicator with ability to effectively interact with athletes at a variety of skill levels.   Strong administrator with the ability to collaborate and maintain excellent relationships with athletes, parents, and community. Self-motivated individual with strong leadership skills and passion for the sport of swimming.   Strives to create and maintain a positive, encouraging, fun atmosphere for all athletes.   Dedicated and determined to empower others to reach for their dreams.
