Patrick started coaching in 2003 for the summer club team the Ben Franklin Fish in Littleton, CO.  He started coaching at the Peak in 2010 and became the Head Coach in the summer of 2012.  Patrick bases his coaching philosophy on having fun (enjoying the sport for life) and swimming fast.  His training is based around technique and race pace work.  He has been elected as the Montana Senior Zones Coach twice and has coached multiple swimmers to the Senior Sectional level.  Three words to sum up his coaching would be Belief, Grit, and Love.  Getting athletes to believe in themselves, having grit in practices and races, and loving the sport and their team.

Jane has been coaching with the Waves for 11 years and is our longest standing coach on the team and has been around since the teams inception!  She is our enthusiastic Silver 1 and 2 coach.   With her many years of experience she brings fun, excitement, solid technique work, and an attitude  of striving to learn to her swimmers.   She is also the Yoga Instructor for the two older groups on the team as part of core-strengthening dryland. Jane brings experience as a master swimmer as well as an extremely successful Ironman, Tri-Athlete, and a gifted runner.

Kirsten is a GF native and was an excellent high school swimmer. She brings a foundation of knowledge that she is always advancing. She is our resident late night group coach. She combines a variety of ages and skill levels to create a great practice atmosphere for those swimmers choosing the later night practice.  Kirsten has a great talent for relating to the high school swimmers that join the team for the few months before high school season begins. She is consistently able to get them prepared and confident before they begin their season with CMR/GFHS Swimming in mid-November. She carries a thrist for knowledge and is constantly working to advance her stroke and technique education.
