Coaching Bio

I am a current member of the Australian Dolphins from 2017-2019 and 2022-present and a World Champion freestyle swimmer, including representing Australia at the Paris 2024 Olympics. I look forward to mentoring and helping shape the future of swimming, because young people are the future.

I made my first Australian Team in 2017 for the World Championship where I won 2 silver and 2 bronze medals. Following this, I competed at my first Commonwealth Games in 2018 on the Gold Coast. I was successful in winning a gold medal in the 4x100m freestyle relay team with a World Record and also placing 4th in my individual 50m and 100m freestyle. I competed in the Paris Olympics in 2024 where I won gold as part of the 4 x 100m and 4 x 200m freestyle relay team. I am fortunate to enjoy a reputation as someone who is positive and genuinely upbeat in my approach to life and sport. My aim is always to engage and interact in a fun and engaging manner with people. I am acutely aware of the impact that I can have as a high-profile swimmer with young athletes and the broader sporting community. I take my responsibilities to sport and all participants seriously and have a deep-rooted desire to have a positive impact on every person that crosses my path. I have been presented with significant challenges in my sporting career. These challenges have equipped me with the necessary skill set to mentor and teach. My objective is to instruct upcoming athletes and their families about how to deal with the adversity and obstacles that all participants in sport encounter along their personal and professional pathway. I believe I would be an ideal mentoring coach for anyone and everyone as I have learnt so much about how important positive mental health and setting goals can be in everyday life as well as any career dreams you have. My belief in who I am and what I stand for was reinforced and my message is one to be shared with others. I became aware of the power of residual determination and resilience. I want to be able to share the messages and lessons with as many young and ambitious individuals as I can. Whether it be overcoming adversity in sport or life, dealing with pressure, or tackling a challenge head-on. I hope people can learn from my journey.

The Sunday morning session with Shayna on October 5 was nothing short of fantastic! I want to thank Shayna once again for her time spent with everyone that attended.

Shayna was amazing. She was warm, open, honest and engaging. The Q&A was excellent and Emmee took some key takeaways from Shauna's wise words! The coaching session in the pool was excellent. Shayna did such a good job ensuring every athlete received feedback.

Mia absolutely loved the session. Shayna was so generous with her knowledge and taking the time to make sure all kids got the most out of the session, as well as just being an inspirational and kind person. Mia would definitely do this again. Thank you! 😊
