The Art of Swimming is much more than an alternative way to swim. It’s a transformational approach to being in the water that surpasses any other system of swim coaching or teaching.

In the Art of Swimming, the focus is on your relationship with the water. You will learn how to move from being separate from it to achieving a sense of oneness and union with the water.

Steven Shaw, founder of the Shaw Method, has spent over 30 years re-crafting the four main strokes into a way of moving through the water with a sense of grace and ease that is accessible to all. This work has health and well-being benefits that extend far beyond the pool. These include:

• Improving posture and body awareness
• Letting go of physical and psychological tension
• Cultivating the ability to be more mindful and connected to the moment
• Developing a sense of flow that can boost your creativity

The Art of Swimming is not only a unique way of swimming that promotes optimal body alignment and a deeper connection with yourself and the water, but the techniques and practices used are also easy to grasp and very enjoyable to learn. Whatever your age, background, or ability, the Art of Swimming will provide you with the resources to unlock your potential to find inner peace and harmony with the water instead of fighting against it.

With the Art of Swimming, you will have the opportunity to learn and practice in ideal learning environments. Quiet, safe, clean facilities with warm water, exclusively hired for your lessons, will ensure you are not disturbed or distracted by other swimmers or spectators, allowing you to focus fully on the learning experience without feeling cold or self-conscious.
