ANNOUNCEMENTS
WELCOME, COACH JASPER JURMAN
Please join us in welcoming Coach Jasper Jurman to the AGUA Coaching Staff.
Jasper grew up in New York City, where he learned to swim at Asphalt Green and joined the AGUA swim team when he was 10 years old. After representing Metro Swimming at Eastern Zones and beyond, he later committed to swim at Queens University of Charlotte (NC) where he was a member of three Division II National Championships.
While teaching private lessons during the summers, Jasper grew his passion for coaching. After graduating, he coached the Hampton Dolphins club team from 2021 to 2025, as well as Masters and private lessons. He then co-founded a swim school before returning to NYC. You can find Coach Jasper on deck working with our groups at Battery Park City!
