Alexander Technique Swimming Course

During summer 2017 I taught at a swimming course, organised and run by Penny O’Connor, Alexander technique teacher. This week-long course runs on the beautiful island of Alonissos, Greece in the sparkling waters of the Agean Sea.

We started the day with a walk along the marble mule trek to the stunning beach where we did Tai Chi and I taught swimming in the sea.

The course was open to anyone although many of the participants are our students or teachers of Alexander Technique. Contact us if you are interested in attending one of our course.

How I beat my fear of swimming – at age 56!

We were lucky to have Daily Mail journalist Wendy Leigh visit Jan to learn how to beat her lifelong fear of water and begin to learn to swim. 

At that moment, my lifelong fear of water was born. No matter how hard I tried, or how much money was invested in swimming lessons, I never got over it.

You can read the full article to learn about her journey. 

The article details the process that Jan uses to slowly and carefully remove the fear that many people feel about swimming and to begin to build up confidence in learning. 

At last, in my fifth decade, I can swim. I may not be winning medals, but I know next time I’m on holiday, I won’t be sitting at the side of the pool, but slipping into the water.
And, who knows, maybe I’ll even swim a few lengths.

If you are scared of water or nervous about swimming then Aqua Vie can help you overcome your anxiety and build confidence in your swimming. Have a look at how we teach for more details or contact us today to take the first step towards loving swimming again.
