We do not guarantee specific swimming results. However we do guarantee that if you follow the program, ask your questions, come with an open mind you will be delighted with what you are able to do in such a short amount of time. Our promise is to deliver the highest quality instruction for the adult beginner to move safely in the water, have fun right now and have the tools to continue to develop your physical and mental skills.

You need to be able to comfortably float on your front and back. Be able to stand up after floating and able to move between your front and backfloats.

Before the beginning of the retreat you must complete a Foundations One course with one of our in person courses or by following the online course.

You have a desire to learn to swim in the ocean using our methods of taking care of the mental and physical steps of learning to swim safely.

Flip flops, two swim suits, comfortable lounge wear and an open curious mind.

Bonus items: swim cap and goggles you already use, sun protective shirt, sun hat and glasses

Do not bring: towel, sun screen (buy on island to make sure it's reef safe per Hawaii guidelines), snorkel, fins, work

Once you are enrolled you will be added to an online prep course. This will walk you through coaching modules to prepare to have the best trip ever. You will also have the option to view our snorkeling course before we hit the water so you've got a head start.

If you are able to swim between your Foundations course and the retreat focus on having fun, being curious about your body and the water and returning to calm if something unexpected happens.

Lastly be kind and loving to yourself. This is a big step! Part of you may want to back out. That part is just trying to protect you by keeping your dreams small. Thank that part, breathe, and show yourself how good you are at taking care of yourself.
