This course is designed for your individual learning, growth, and professional development as a swim instructor working with swimmers of all abilities. Because of this, it is not intended to serve as a “train-the-trainer” program, and the material should not be passed along second-hand.

Adaptive aquatics is highly nuanced work. It requires deep understanding, thoughtful decision-making, and the ability to respond to each swimmer’s unique needs in real time. That level of skill is best developed through direct learning.

When instructors complete the course themselves, they gain stronger retention, greater confidence, improved safety awareness, a clearer understanding of the reasoning behind each strategy and improved success with their swimmers.
