Episode 13: 10 Tips for Snorkeling | Orca Swim School

“Oh the weather outside is frightful…but topical vacations are so delightful.  

And since there’s no place to go… 

Let us dream, let us dream, let us dream!”

Are you dreaming of a winter getaway?  We have had several students in the water in the last month getting ready for cruises, trips to Hawaii or other beautiful equator places.  It’s the summer vacation of winter.  

That is why we will be releasing our Snorkeling 101 course next month.  It’s an online course that gives you all the information and step by step instructions to get you out to enjoy that winter getaway.  

We created this course because this is what we hear from students:

  • “It was a once in a lifetime trip so I made myself go even though I had no idea what was going on.”
  • “I thought the tour guide would give us instructions.  Well, that was a whole 5 minutes and there you go!”
  • “I didn’t want to miss out, but I was not prepared.  Even though my loved one with me said it would be ok, I was too unsure to attempt it.  I really regret it.”

You don’t want to miss out.  Snorkeling is a relatively easy water activity that can have amazing payoffs so you can experience so much more of our planet. 

You could jump from one YouTube video to another or hope that the kid at the snorkel shack can help get you going. You can ask at your community center pool for a private lesson and hope its someone a little more experienced than the highschool swim team teacher who is great with the kids but an anxious adult?

This course takes our years of expert experience with beginning and afraid adults and incorporates the mental preparation along with the skill preparation to give you the full package.  

Additionally, we will give you more information about gear – beyond the basic 3 items (mask, fins, snorkel).  Also, we’ll include how to find a place to start and what to expect from a typical first-time experience.  

Today’s episode is just a little preview with 10 Tips for Snorkeling.  Keep an eye out for the launch date of the full course!

Healing Fear in Warm Water

If you’re like many adults, you’ve been frustrated or embarrassed that you weren’t free to swim “like everybody else.” Half of adults can’t swim, like you! We meet them all the time. They’ve tried every system, including the traditional programs, with no success.

Since 1999, we’ve helped hundreds of adults overcome their fear and discomfort in water with our proven system built on the 5 Circles Teaching Method. The Miracle Swimming system uses the nuts and bolts of mindfulness to address the root of the problem and will transform the way you feel and think about water for the rest of your life.
