Miracle Swimming or Teen/Adult with Fear in Water swimming classes: Kyndra Smith is now a certified Miracle Swimming Instructor. This course is specifically designed to heal fear of water for the teen and adult swimmer. Did you know that 32% of adults are afraid to put their heads under water? 46% of American adults are afraid in water over their heads in pools and 64% are afraid in deep, open water. (Gallup Poll, 1998) If they’re afraid, they don’t understand how the water works. They often can’t keep themselves from panicking in unforeseen situations. The Miracle Swimming system, a true paradigm shift in teaching, and works for everyone. Comfort and control are taught first. Without this knowledge, learning to swim comfortably and remain at ease in deep water are impossible. You can learn to swim the same way you learned to walk. It can't possibly fail: all your questions are answered and no steps are skipped. The system is gentle, fun, and simple. Heal fear instead of managing it!
For more information on the Miracle Swimming techniquie please visit this website. Kyndra has been teaching and using this tecnique for the past 5 years and has completed her training and certificaiton with this program this past year. We are ready now to bring these classes to Gunstock Aquatics. If you know an adult who would like to heal their fear in water ,please check out THIS website and contact us for a class.
