Instructor Trainings

"The best teaching I've ever seen."

—Helenita Jacobs, Total Immersion Director of the Northwest

When it comes to teaching afraid swimming students, there's specialized knowledge that lies below the surface. It's understandable that it wasn't part of your training: it wasn't known. Yet afraid students have needed this information more than any other in order to learn to swim. Until 2004, there had never been trainings for teaching afraid students.

The Conquer Fear Instructor Training™ is material every swim instructor in the world should know. This material teaches people who otherwise never would have learned to swim how to be safe in deep water. This is how we can reduce preventable drowning to zero, worldwide.

Why "Miracle?"

"My two little 4-year olds that I have been using the "method" on are both putting their faces in the water and floating on their backs!! The serious one has yet to smile, but the other one was laughing up a storm today! Way too awesome...
Thanks, Melon!!

—Judy Lemke, AquaMania Swim School

"You'll never teach the same way again once you've taken this training."
— 100% of our Instructor Graduates

Educational, enlightening, fulfilling. I would love to do something similar anytime possible! It allows you a different outlook on how people feel, learn, prosper, and grow naturally."
—Malari McMurtery, Bubbles to Butterfly Swim School

A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but the operation of a higher law. Miracle Swimming uses higher laws of learning we have not seen identified anywhere else in the world. They comprise the 5 Circles™ Teaching Method. The results? As one instructor currently in our training says,

"It is completely the opposite of what traditional training represents. If I had only read about this system and not witnessed it several times over, I would be skeptical as to its success. I have always been pushed and have been taught to do the same thing (push) in order to produce results. No amount of "pushing" can produce the results that your system does in any of the swimmers I have seen through this program."

Bring these safety essentials to Swimming in your community:

A series of steps of learning to swim that never fails*
Increased participation in the swimming sports
A new possibility for water safety
The steps of healing (as opposed to managing) fear
A new paradigm of learning

*and speeds up learning for all students

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.

Our new trainings benefit the International Swimming Hall of Fame in a new partnership between ISHOF and MSI. The Hall of Fame's goal is that everyone learn to swim. It chose MSI to fulfill the part that is our area of expertise: afraid students and those who have not learned in traditional lessons: 64% of American adults, and unknown numbers of children. Ten percent of training and royalty revenues goes to ISHOF. Buy your classes' Miracle Swimming books and dvds from ISHOF.

Training Levels

Our training, "How to Teach Afraid Adults (and children) to Overcome Fear and Swim" causes instructors to say, "I have a whole new perspective on what I was teaching. Why didn't anyone ever think of this before?"

Our full-length training is open at this time only to swim school owners and swimming instructors who have an established business plan for incorporating Miracle Swimming classes into their program.
