Be Comfortable in the Water!!

Learn to Swim Intro / Drowning Prevention Workshop
Cost: $15 (total) for 3-hour workshop
This workshop is a labor of love for our team. Because we believe every adult deserves to feel safe in the water, this program is financially subsidized by contributions from our own coaching staff to keep costs low and accessibility high.
 
Description
This workshop focuses on the fundamentals of being COMFORTABLE in the water. The workshop moves at YOUR PACE. Most adults who come to this class come with limited experience with water and/or misconceptions about water and/or a history of one or more traumatic experiences with water.
 
The workshop covers:
How the water works
How YOUR body works in the water 
How  to protect your eyes and ears and mouth and nose
How control and movement in the water require different skills than those we use on land
The skills you need to control your body and mind in the water
 
Note: it's not uncommon for a student to be too scared to get into the pool. That's fine. We're glad to have you!! You can sit and listen and watch and one of our coaches will check in on you to answer questions or discuss concerns. 
 
Class size
These workshops begin with all students together (we averaged 12 participants per workshop in 2025). We break out into smaller groups as we spot similar comfort and skill levels. These smaller groups are usually 3-5 students but can be larger or smaller depending on the specific people in class.

What to expect
Beginner class curriculum series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZdDWCYNUmQ
This series was c reated for new coaches but students found them valuable, so we share them.
 
This was a 4 hour workshop but you get a feel for the class.
 
Success Stories
Check Google reviews here.  Look for mentions of the 'adult' program. 
Here's a short part of one of our favorites:  
... In this 3 hr class, I went from clinging to the side of the pool to gleefully gliding under water in the middle of the pool... I now ENJOY being in the water! If you are apprehensive about being near a pool, lake or even the ocean, I HIGHLY recommend this class and these coaches. I promise you will not regret it.
 
 
The goal through the whole workshop is your comfort in the water. We move at your pace. No push. No rush.
