Swim ready: a program to help people overcome fear of water

SwimReady is a health and wellness aquatic program designed specifically for non-swimmers and fearful swimmers.  The program’s goals are to eliminate fear, build comfort, and teach basic water safety skills.  You'll start learning on dry land, and your confidence is built step by step both in and out of the water.  You'll learn to identify, understand, and manage fear in a safe, supportive environment.  The proven, three-dimensional teaching approach combines cognitive awareness and emotional support with a unique curriculum of progressive water skill-building.  Once you’re in control, and understand that you can keep yourself safe, preoccupation with survival and drowning will be reduced or gone.  The mind and body will be free to enjoy the water and relax, and if desired, to learn additional water skills such as swimming strokes.  Even so, there are plenty of aquatic activities you can enjoy, even if you don’t learn strokes. Floating for relaxation, water fitness classes or boating can now be part of your lifestyle once you are confident in your basic skills.
Your aquatic journey is unique to you, and always determined by the goals you set for yourself.
