The Swim with Annie Swim Education Center
Annie’s own inner curiosity combined with Annie’s self-learned physics, supported by Swim with Annie’s in-water-collaborators, our Swim with Annie Swim Educators—the Swim with Annie Swim Education Center studies relationships between humans, coupled with relationships between humans and water, resulting in a swimmer’s authentic self-recognition of floatation and swim.
Swim with Annie
A unique swim experience.
I teach interactions with water as a creative study in science: a physics-based experience that is ever-evolving—born of years of my personal study of the interaction between the human body & water that creates the harmony known as swimming.
Swim with Annie Swim Educators operate as in-pool creative collaborators, providing a balance of physical and emotional engagement that is necessary for young people to learn.
Please note: Swim with Annie is not a traditional swim lesson program.
Scroll down this page for more “About Swim with Annie”.
I teach swimming from a place of recognition of floatation and propulsion.
The physics of swimming is very important to me.
Given the correct understanding of use of one's body, people can swim more effectively, efficiently & with greater ease.
Below are the marks I’ve created for simplicity of learning & teaching the above.
Swim with Annie Learning Marks
BEGINNER 💧
Absolute beginner. May not have ever stood in water before/stepped into a pool/body of water. May need assistance to control one’s body in the water, at all. Even standing in it. Will need guidance to sit, control their bodies, walk through water, want to get wet, want to participate.
PADDLER 💧💧
Is confidently capable of being solo on a noodle where their feet cannot touch & happy about it, under supervision. Ranges from probably does not yet go underwater or even like their face wet, yet, to maybe not mind/love being underwater.
UNDERWATER EASE 💧💧💧
Happily & confidently hangs out underwater, with intention. Can briefly float/travel in water, while face is comfortably in, where they can stand. Should be comfortable in back float solo or assisted. Usually cannot yet confidently come up for air in water over one’s head.
SWIMMER 💧💧💧💧
Can easily fit description of UNDERWATER EASE PLUS can swim with face comfortably in, in water over one’s head, come comfortably and confidently up for air and resume swim with face comfortably back in. Can do so, confidently, for 10-15+ yards, without assistance, standing up and/or grabbing a wall. Should also be able to swim on back using only legs.
(Ready for) STROKES 💧💧💧💧💧
Can easily fit description of UNDERWATER EASE PLUS SWIMMER PLUS can move forward, with face in, obtain air, get back in, without ingesting water, to get, easily, from one end to the other end of a 25 yard pool. Does not need any experience with strokes. We will be teaching the STROKES.
Can also swim 25 yards on back using only legs, without sinking their face.
EFFICIENCY 💧💧💧💧💧💧

BUILD A GROUP OF 4 𐀪𐀪𐀪𐀪
A pre-formed group of swimmers of similar age & Learning Mark come to learn, together. Group have 4 swimmers. Each swimmer’s individual cost is same as our regular group cost. One person makes the purchase for the entire group.
PARENT EDUCATION 𖨆♡𖨆 with CHILD
Parent Education 𖨆♡𖨆 with Child time slots are intended as a commitment by a parent/caregiver to learning how your child learns, along with learning how to educate your child in swim. These are slow-moving, deliberate series of both land discussion and water activity. The pace is slow, deliberate and thoughtful. Annie teaches these courses, mindfully, from the deck.

A swimmer’s personal relationship to the water is integral to their success at swim.
