State of Emergency in Adult Swimming Lessons

Emergency

• Most afraid adults can’t become safe in deep water in conventional swimming lessons.
• Adults blame themselves for not learning, but it’s not their fault.
• Many quit, thinking they’re not meant to learn because they’ve failed so many times. This prevents them from becoming safe.
• The drowning rate for adults has risen sharply.

This emergency largely stems from missing knowledge and obsolete teaching methods in conventional lessons: putting the cart before the horse.

Instructors: you can be successful with every single adult in deep water.
Instructional agencies must retool.
Students CAN learn to swim no matter how afraid they might be today.

Take a step today to end this emergency. The steps are clear and easy. It’s up to each of us—instructors, agencies, and students—to get this job done together. Attend Get Comfortable in Water Day, TBA
