Whether you’ve never stepped foot in a pool or you’re just not comfortable in deep water, we have options for you.
You really can! Whether you use our courses to supplement your local in-person swim class or as your personal companion for swimming in deep water, we’re committed to equipping you with every tool you need.

Discover joy in swimming.
Adults and kids learn in vastly different ways. We can’t expect to confidently learn to swim – or teach other adults to swim – using a curriculum for kids.
Adults experience the water with their unique stories that create questions, concerns, and even fears about swimming that kids don’t have! That means whether you’re the student or teacher, adult swim classes need to be approached with a focus on mindset first and physical skills second.
After 20+ years of working exclusively with adult swimmers, Calm Within Adult Swim is committed to providing resources that will help you transform your mindset and accomplish goals in the water you used to think were impossible!
We’re honored to equip instructors and teach students like you learn to swim with a brand new perspective in the water. After swimmers discover calm in the water, the skills and movements flow from there!

What's the word on the program
It’s great to hear the feedback. This is a feature I was not expecting. I’m very glad I chose to sign up for this before my swimming lessons start in two weeks. I’ve already felt my confidence improve.

I appreciate your free online course so much. I felt dubious about how helpful it would be (after all, it’s not in the water, right?) but I’m glad my assumptions were wrong. It has been a really meaningful experience so far!! Baby steps. 🙂

This program has been truly life changing. As a student it changed my relationship to water and to learning. As an instructor, and through the teacher training, it’s helped me examine and improve how I talk to and motivate myself. It’s so incredibly rewarding and wholesome to be a part of so many people’s swim journeys, and to help them get something they’ve been missing out on for so long.

Calm Within has built a large teaching system for teachers to understand how to teach to the person on an individual level and with the work we do in the water, as personal as it is, the information that Calm Within has developed was top notch. I still reference it to this day when I find myself “stuck” with a student. The wealth of knowledge and support I have received from Calm Within has been by far the best working experience I have had and I am humbly grateful for the education, support, and encouragement I have received from Cori and her support team.”

“This was so far the best lesson I’ve ever experienced. I was able to share a story that kept me from the water for a long time, and Cori was able to show me some new tricks I had no idea I could do. Looking forward to my next lesson.
