Instructor Trainings

When it comes to teaching afraid swimming students, common knowledge barely skims the surface. It's understandable, though: no one knew afraid students had completely different needs from non-afraids. And until 2004, there had never been specific training for teaching afraid students.

Bring three new things to Swimming:

1. A series of steps of learning to swim that never fails for true beginning students.
2. A new model of how learning works.
3. New ideas about how fear heals.

Could those be helpful to you?

If you knew what students in our classes learned this month in class, we believe you'd be dazzled. For one thing, they're not stiff. Secondly they're laughing. Third, they keep coming back for more. You'd swear they weren't afraid.

Take a One-Day training. Or come and get the Whole 9 Yards.
