Although most swim lessons given are with children, there is definitely a calling for swim lessons for the adult learner. Happy Swimmers has staff who have high levels of experience working with adults, whether it be your very first swim lessons—Yay! or a desire to smooth out your swimming strokes. Over the19 years of our adult swim lessons, our clients have ranged in age from their 20’s to in their 80’s!
What’s the difference with the teaching of adult learn-to-swimmers versus kids? With adults, it’s usually 80% overcoming the fear of water, specifically water deeper than standing. The other 20% is learning the strokes and basic floating. With kids it’s usually the reverse (80% method, 20% overcoming fears). We understand this teaching difference, compassionately, and will be there for you, with no surprises. A bonus: adults don’t usually need as many swim lessons to learn once the worry is transformed. How many lessons? Start out with 4-6, and take it from there. You’ll know what feels right.
Also, just to know, you will keep the same swim instructor for all the lessons you choose, and you may request a male or female if it’s more comfortable to you.
How long should the lesson be? We suggest taking either 40 min or 60 min per adult lesson, and this can be modified after the first lesson or two to whatever feels best to you.
We applaud you for stepping forward as an adult to learn to swim, and better your strokes!
Happy Swimming,
