Ultra-Beginning Swimming
In every Beginning class, our 8 students are at 8 levels. Our system beautifully accommodates each person at their own level and pace. However, once or twice a year a student says, "I wish there had been someone at my level in this class. I felt much more afraid than my classmates."
As one student described it, her fear was "off the Richter Scale." To be off the Richter Scale in a Miracle Swimming class is to be really afraid. That's wonderful! We have a class for you.
Why:
Several years ago we asked people registering for our Beginning class to rate their level of fear on a scale from 1-10 so we could study whether we could use their ratings to put them into the best class for them. When students arrived in class, we found that their rating of their fear level and ours were completely different. That idea went out the window.
So, we've taken the next step in making sure you're with "your people." When you're with your people—and Miracle Swimming classes are all about being with your people— it's easier to focus on the course.
Solution:
There is no one who fails to learn to float and swim if they're able to begin learning to float in a very shallow pool. By the way, our first steps are far more elementary than floating face down in a shallow pool.
Some of our class locations have 1-foot pools. Anyone who would be relieved to start learning in a 1-foot pool should make sure they take our class in Sarasota, FL, Palm Springs, CA, Fairmont Springs, MT, or Glenwood Springs, CO. When you outgrow the 1-foot pool, you'll move to the regular pool.
We will hold our first class especially for people who would rate their fear as "off the Richter Scale" August 20-24, 2010 in Sarasota.
Your instructor will accommodate you in the 1-foot pool as needed in any class offered at the above locations even if your class is not designated as Ultra-Beginning. If you're an Ultra-Beginner, and you wish to take a class with "your people," join us in August in Sarasota. Learning just doesn't get any better for Ultra-Beginners.
