COLAS BARNABE

39 years old

After training at the CREPS in Antibes (Regional Center of Physical Education and Sport), I get my BEESAN in May 2010 (Patent Sporting teacher of nautical activities) to become swimming teacher. Since then, I provide swimming lessons at the local pool of Antibes, at sea and in private (villas, residences).
Besides, it has been 10 years that every winter I am taking the road to the mountain where I work as an ESF ski instructor in Flaine (Haute Savoie).
Sport has always been a part of me and I want to transmit my passion for swimming and skiing – two sports that I particulary love.
My vocation is to teach and my reward is seeing my students making progress.

My journey is that of an “alpine mara”, Master swimmer for more than 10 years, passionate about sport and teaching. it is therefore on grounds such as that of professional firefighters, first-aid trainers, PE teachers, and finally that of course lifeguard, that I spend the majority of my time, What could be more pleasant as a profession. My main objective will be to secure the children and teach them safety and survival techniques. Then we will work on the aesthetics of the stroke, the codified strokes and all the improvements on the 4 strokes. All this in a caring atmosphere with the watchword of fun and fun. With the added bonus of seeing on the children’s faces, the pleasure of learning multiple things.

As a top water polo athlete, water is like a second skin. I played 3 years at a high level (2 years at Insep and 1 year in Nice) as goalkeeper for the Nice pro team (ONN).

In 2021, I experienced great things:

  • our team finished vice-champion of France (Pro A).
  • in the European championship, our team finished 7th with the French team.
  • and we also participated in the qualifications for the Tokyo Olympics where we did not succeed to stand out.

So why do I love water polo? It’s first of all a team sport and a very complex sport (I would say that it’s a mix of several sports including basketball, swimming and handball) and at the same time it remains a game where everyone individually its place. Following repeated injuries I decided to stop the France team. Water being my element, I decided to embark on the learning side and I became a lifeguard in December 2020. My first students were the young people of the Nice Olympic swimming club. For me, knowing how to swim isn’t just fun, it’s also very important, so with this job I told myself that I could help others at the same time! In 2022, I will undergo another training (the professional certificate in popular education and sport – specialization in Physical Activity for All) in order to be able to teach to different audiences and to be even more versatile.
