Coach Piper Head Coach / Team Owner

Coach Piper’s journey in the water started at just five years old in Hawai‘i, where she trained under legendary coach Soichi Sakamoto (The Three-Year Swim Club: Maui’s Sugar Ditch Kids.) That early foundation shaped her into the athlete — and later, the coach — who would go on to guide swimmers from their very first laps all the way to the Olympic stage.

Coach Piper has spent nearly three decades shaping swimmers into confident, high-performing athletes. Her coaching career is defined by long-term development, technical expertise, and a proven trackrecord of success; elevating swimmers at every level of competition.
