Shaw method and I
I come from a family of competitive swimmers. However, when I first learned to swim,
my coach was very unforgiving and I was very scared. I then decided swimming was not for me.
Years later, with a little help from the Alexander Technique and Steven Shaw,
I learned to conquer my fear of water.
Today, swimming is my therapy. I love it. I need it. It makes me feel good.
And above all, I love sharing this passion with others.

“I was so impressed with the way Jana delivered her swimming lessons. Normally I am very anxious being in the water as an adult non-swimmer so when Jana guided me so gently each step of the way with such clear explanations - the situation completely changed.
My confidence quickly grew and for the first time ever I looked forward to learning how to swim. I really liked how easy I was able to manage my development with Jana's passionate and patient unique way of coaching. Thank you so much!” |

“As an average swimmer I started looking for a specialized coach who knew something about Shaw Method swimming. After some research I was introduced to Jana. Following a set of lessons and the supply of specific media I noticed that my balance, breathing, coordination and timing had significantly improved in the water.
After Jana's coaching I can swim much better over most of the common swimming strokes and can swim a long distance when using rescue techniques. Witnesses who observed Jana's instruction said to me that her coaching was thorough, detailed focused and showed patience when I was having difficulty with some swimming movements. They also commented that Jana was a highly skilled coach who knew how to improve swimming technique.” |

“Swimming made easy and enjoyable; that’s what I’d call the Shaw method, as shown to me by Jana.
Everyone knows swimming is good for you in multiple ways but do you want to do it? Jana coaxed me through lessons, starting with fundamentals in the warm Hydro pool (lovely), moving gently to understanding and practice of the swimming stroke and graduating to swimming laps in the pool. Learning the subtleties was fun and varied by Jana’s intelligent creativity and willingness to explore. Her friendliness and openness encouraged a comfortable rapport that allowed room for moving at my own pace. My enjoyment of swimming and subsequently enthusiasm for it has increased from the interest that was sparked and the ease that was gained from my lessons with Jana.” |
