Welcome to Swimtastic + SwimLabs Kenosha! I'm so proud to be the owner of this state of the art school. My swim story started at age 6 when I began swim team and my love for the pool hasn't stopped. As a mother of four daughters, I know how critical it is for our kiddos (and all kiddos) to be safe, confident swimmers. Plus, I love the water and want our girls love and enjoy all sorts of swim adventures in their life. I took the leap from a successful 17 years in medical device marketing to open my own business and have a positive impact on the families of the Kenosha area. I hope to see you at the pool soon!

Katie Brothen, Owner & General Manager
Mary Lewer, General Manager
I have worked at Swimtastic + SwimLabs for over two years and love the opportunity to make an impact on kids that'll last them a lifetime. I have been swimming since I was 4 years old, and my favorite stroke is butterfly. I am the head coach of the Wave Swim Team Prep program and am able to provide each swimmer with feedback that'll improve their technique and make them faster. My eye for detail translates to my skills in and out of the pool and I'm always striving for improvement. When I'm not at the pool I'm spending time outside, with my friends, cooking, or working towards my degree in education!
