Top Guard Training

Top Guard Training A California lifeguard training team. We train lifeguards to be their best, all the time. We issue Red Cross certifications in lifeguarding and CPR/First Aid.

Top Guard Training is a team of four California lifeguard trainers - Jerry and Sarah Reid, Jason Rich, and Mike Bowman. We also specialize in In-Service Training, crisis management, water safety, and team building. We pride ourselves with over 30 years of combined lifeguard and aquatics training. From community pool management, to open water training, to white water rescues - there isn't a situation that our team is not prepared to encounter. Contact us today and let us help bring your lifeguard team to the top.

Top Guard Training doesn't just teach you how to watch the water, we train you to respond fast, stay calm under pressure, and act when every second counts.

Sometimes we take training out of the pool and onto the lake! 🌊
Lifeguard training on open water builds confidence, sharpens rescue skills, and pushes our guards to handle real-life scenarios in any environment. 💪🚤
TGT = built different.

Today, we're giving a big shoutout to a few Rockstars🤘 from our early years — AJ, Ashley, Matt, and Dom.🎉

If you took a course between 2015 and 2019, chances are these incredible instructors played a key role in delivering the excellence our Red Cross Lifeguard courses are known for‼️

Though they’ve moved on to new chapters in life, we’re forever grateful for their mentorship, dedication, and the lasting impact they made on every student who came through our program.

Our shoutout today goes to Hannah Gish🙌

Hannah has done every position, at just about every facility, Top Guard has managed over the years. She started as a lifeguard at Sequoia Lake camp, became the Operations Manger and helped successfully navigate our program at Woodward Lake.

We are so thankful for years mentoring new leaders and being a person we can always count on.

Hannah is a true Rockstar🎉

Getting your lifeguard certification doesn’t mean just hanging out by the pool all summer.
With your cert, you can work at:
🏖️ Beaches
💦 Waterparks
🏊‍♂️ Pools
🚤 Lakes & Resorts
🎢 Theme Parks
🛳️ Cruise Ships
And it’s not just a summer gig—lifeguarding can lead to careers in emergency response, coaching, and even aquatic management.
