Anika Blane

Coach Anika is excited for her 3rd year of coaching for Pacific Coast Swimming. Before moving to Victoria to attend UVIC, Anika swam competitively on the mainland for over 10 years. She is happy to bring her athlete and 8 years of coaching experience to the Provincial 1 group. Anika is an NCCP Level 1 certified coach and studies psychology at UVic. She draws knowledge and inspiration from her degree and working alongside our senior coaches. Anika’s favourite thing about swimming is when small, consistent improvements add up over time to pay off in the long-term, both in competing and in life! When Anika is not coaching, she enjoys swimming on her own, and trying new sports like water polo, cycling and gymnastics.
