Description
If you have tried to learn to swim with traditional lessons or with friends, family, lifeguards, or Olympians, and you're still afraid in water, it's not your fault. There is a profound misunderstanding of how to overcome fear--especially for adults--in the swimming instruction establishment. This misunderstanding is accepted as truth.
You can learn to put your face in water happily, float, roll over, propel yourself, rest in deep water, bob, and get air at will if you're taught correctly how to overcome fear. It need not be scary. It must not be scary! Comfort is the #1 priority. Strokes are irrelevant and not covered in this book. Learn to swim without them. Later, learn to swim efficiently: with strokes.
What doesn't feel safe to you about swimming lessons?
- Expectation that you know the basics
- Pressure to move on before you're ready
- Implication that learning strokes removes fear
- No sensitivity to fear, no system to heal it
- Competition
- Cold water
- Brief lessons
- Practice isn't fun
- Pleasing the instructor
- Young inexperienced instructors
- Fear of drowning, looking silly, being unable to learn
Deep water? Panic? Sinking? Water in your nose?
Overcome your fear and you can join in the fun at social functions. Enjoy the beach and water vacations with family and friends. Feel like a "normal person." Say goodbye to embarrassment and excuses. Become a snorkeler or diver.
Students of this process have achieved all of those things, learning a way that feels safe all the time. With correct information, healing fear is not frightening. Dash has taught afraid-in-water adults full-time, nonstop for forty years. She lays out a system that's second to none: tried and true with 6000 adults. An industry disruptor, she has led the adult-learn-to-swim industry since 1983. Overcoming fear is a simple, astonishing process, known and proven.
"Your book is amazing. My swimming has made progress. Lifelong fear. Thank you!"
