Are you a beginner in terms of swimming?
Do you have a high degree of apprehension around the water? Have you had a bad experience with learning to swim in the past?
Maybe it’s time you jumped in with Stephanie.
When you enroll in Adult Swim Intensive, you will be working with a specialized instructor who has been guiding and teaching adults to swim since 1989. Stephanie Rainey, the owner of The Aqua Life Swim Academy, loves to get in the water with the most fearful of adults and watch their fear transform into comfort and joy.
Her oldest client to date was 77 years old, proving that it is never too late to learn.
Another client, at the age of 73, spent just over a year secretly perfecting her swimming so she could surprise her family at the pool. You can see her story here.
The Adult Swim Intensive is designed to set you up to learn in a safe environment so you can overcome your fear, learn the necessary skills to be comfortable in the water, and transition into our Adult Swim Lessons.
This program involves 10 hours of private, one-on-one swim instruction. The breakdown of hours and pace will be determined by you and Stephanie once you get in the pool.
The cost to enroll in Adult Swim Intensive is $1497 + HST
You will learn:
- To step into the pool and feel comfortable at different depths.
- How the water works and how to move without effort or fear.
- To comfortably put your face in and practice breath control.
- To float on your back and recover to a standing position.
- How to flutter kick.
- Front float and how to recover to a standing position.
You will always have a safe, guided experience with Stephanie. This includes holding you while you float, doing exercises one step at a time, and progressing at your own pace. Stephanie is a master at observing and tweaking her lessons to suit your body type and skill in the water. This ensures her students learn quickly, safely and have a positive experience.
