Michel Hughes
Aquatics Experience Lead
Michel began as a water baby growing up on the Caddo River. She started swimming competitively at 8 years old, and achieved big wins including first place in Arkansas with her 15-18yr old medley relay team. Growing up she wanted to become like the coaches who inspired her. At 16, she became a Red Cross lifeguard and WSI teaching swim lessons at the local YMCA.
Michel coached USA Swimming for the YMCA Seals from 2011-2014. In 2015, she branched off on her own to create Swim4Life and started her own summer league. In 2018, Michel joined AAU Bass Swim Team in Bryant and had the privilege of coaching Junior Olympics in Des Moines, Iowa that summer. She has 18 years teaching experience and 14 years coaching.
Michel has a passion for teaching people how to swim, to be safe in and around the water, and helping them pursue their goals. She also has an Associate of Arts and Associate of Applied Science in Early Childhood and studied Health Education and Promotion from UALR. Michel believes swimming can teach you valuable life lessons such as responsibility, time management, respect, determination, mental strength, and honesty. She is a proud mom to her beautiful children and bonus children.
