I had been afraid of water all my life, in spite of (or because of?) school swimming lessons. As an adult I badly wanted to learn to swim and always felt like I was the only one who couldnt. But I was scared of going to swimming lessons because I thought I would have to do something I was afraid to do. At the same time I refused to give up and so a few years ago I set out to look for someone who could help me. It was then that I found Melon on the internet. I couldnt take the courses at the time because I lived in Europe, but when the pandemic came and Melon offered an online course I jumped at the chance. Through that and her book I was able to take the first steps on my own in feeling comfortable in the water. But I knew that I wanted and needed more so I was able to recently fly over and take the in person class. Yesterday I swam out in the ocean in deep water. This is truly miraculous because at no time during the learning process was I afraid; there was no reason to be. Melons system is absolutely unique and never fails! There are no words to describe how grateful, excited and amazed I am; it has changed my life! In my opinion these courses are not only worth their money, they are worth so much more.Their value is inestimable! The price of not being safe in deep water is much much higher!

On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest, Id give Miracle Swimming School a 12 because thats how awesome it really is! Instructors are highly skilled and simply amazing. Ive taken other swimming classes before and their way of teaching is very unique as there is nothing else out there like it. Their methodology and the results I was able achieve in the water were life changing and exceeded all my expectations.

I had a good feeling Melons swimming experience would be just what I needed to finally feel in control in the water and I was right! The psychology is true and effective, once you focus on only doing what feels comfortable and right in your body, your body naturally will do the rest and moving through and in the water will come organically. Sometimes I would get stuck and stop progressing but as soon as we would switch to fun games, all the sudden I would start swimming and floating and jumping in the water without thinking about it. I know 100% now that I will automatically be able to swim safely and do whatever I want in the water from now on. These lessons of listening to your body and stick with what you feel in the moment to allow your mind to expand carries over to all areas in life! Thank you Melon! And thank to yo my teacher, Saint Teresa:)

The Essentials 1 Course was life changing for me. I have found the freedom Ive been searching for my entire life. Drowning was my greatest fear and the fact I couldnt swim caused anxiety which trickled down to other areas of my life. MSA has helped me face my greatest fear. I am swimming, confident and most importantly I AM Having FUN!Thank you Theresa, Melon and JulieAppreciatively,Carlise (little mermaid)

Just finished the Beginners class, it was excellent! Overcame my fear of deep water in only a few days! Will continue with other Miracle Swimming classes.

This course is really unbelievable! I’ve been struggling swimming because I’m very muscular and weight lift is my primary workout routine . I’ve always wanted to add swimming but found it extremely difficult due to past negative experiences and my muscular body which would cause me to sink. However within a week of taking this class I was swimming and my hydrophobia has totally resolved. It’s actually quite amazing! Take this class if you struggle with swimming, have fear or water or have an extremely muscular physique (as I had all three) you will NOT be disappointed!!!! Two words: absolutely amazing!! Thank you miracle swimming you have changed my life!

I have been struggling with swimming for more than a decade. Few years back I found Melons book Conquer your fear of water which I followed diligently and was able to break some barriers ! But I was still no where close to being free even in 5ft of water.I finally took the plunge to take the Beginner class in Palm Springs recently by Miracle Swimming and had the honor of being taught by Melon Dash herself ! She really knows how to teach people, which transforms into the objective of her class. She is extremely patient, thorough and pleasant !I hope more such teachers spread around the world and help everyone learn to enjoy water without fear !

I took many swim classes at my local Y, but never learnt how to swim, meaning I was never comfortable in deep water despite being able to move from one end of the pool to another. I usually ran out of breath in 1 or 2 laps because I was often out of my body and was told to practice more to cure that. Last year, I chanced upon Miracle Swimming on Google after years of frustration and decided to give swimming one last chance. I bought Melons book and started from ground zero in order to unlearn my old habits and beliefs in water. It was a miracle; each chapter opened my eyes and the content was just what I needed. I took the Next Steps class in Sarasota, FL and it was even more transformational. My teacher, Sharon, was unbelievably patient in drilling into me the core lessons of staying calm (1st circle), starting slowly, listening to my body to learn what feels right in water, and consciously feeling my way through every action I took in the water. I still have some way to go until total freedom in water, but I know I have finally stumbled upon the right way to learn how to swim. Melons lessons are applicable even beyond swimming.

This schools unique, sensible, and gentle approach to teaching adults the essentials of swimming to anyone, including those deathly afraid of water like my former self, really works! Its been a miraculous transformation going from fearful to cautious to calm to excited to be in the water over my head.

I really enjoyed and learned a lot from the swimming sessions. The homefun (homework) was a necessary part of my success. It gave me so much insight on myself. I know people think that you should just jump in and learn how to swim, but there is so much more to swimming.Theresa is a fantastic teacher. I felt like she really lived the swim life. She could see my concerns without me saying anything.Will I take the next course? Absolutely I can’t wait.Would I recommend Miricle Swim? AbsolutelySee you next year!!!Lisbon Reese

I discovered Miracle Swimming back in 2014 and it changed everything. As an adult who had had a fear of the water practically my whole life, I had almost given up hope that I could ever enjoy the pool, water sports, the ocean, boat rides, etc. Traditional swim classes just werent working. I found Miracle Swimming and thats when I started to heal the fear. It works!

After many failed attempts of taking swimming lessons (group and private), spanning across years, in only 5 days I was able conquer my fear and enjoy being in the water. I highly recommend you take her class. I completed the beginners and will be taking the Next Steps class. Her class really works! For me .. it was a true miracle.

I completed the Beginners class on September 25, 2021. To say it was transformative is an understatement. I have been trying to conquer my fear of deep water for over 15 years. I conquered my fear of deep water in one week with the help of Melon, Teresa and the Miracle Swimming curriculum.If you are reading this review and think that Miracle Swimming cant help you, you are wrong. Melon has designed a program that will work for you. The curriculum is designed to meet you where you are in terms of your ability and put you on the road to where you want to go. For me that is the deep end of the pool, hanging out with my family.Im so happy that I invested in myself. Conquering my fear of deep water has opened up a lot of new possibilities for me. I will definitely be taking other Miracle Swimming courses.

I never took a swimming class because of my fear! I felt that a regular swimming class would not address my fear. I found miracle swimming class and decided that this my be my only hope to learn how to swim. OMG! I learned to be comfortable in water and to trust water while staying in complete control of my body. This class is soooooo unique and I thank Melon Dash for coming up with such a unique concept to teach Adults who have fear how to swim! I now have the jump start to continue to practice my swimming and one day being able to tread water in the deep.

I’d been taking swimming classes for years without progress when I came across Miracle Swimming. I couldn’t take their classes because I don’t live in the U.S, but I jumped at the chance to take the online version during the confinement. It’s amazing - nothing short of a miracle - the transformation you go through. I can finally swim in shallow water by myself and have become comfortable doing exercises in deep water with my instructor - without any floatation aids! I’m on my way to learning to swim in deep water. I’d been blocked for five years and Melon helped me unblock in less than two months - without even personally being there! If you love water and want to get over the fear that keeps you from enjoying it, I couldn’t recommend more taking Miracle Swimming online classes, especially if distance keeps you from taking one in person.

I highly recommend Miracle Swimming’s online class. I was very skeptical about taking an online swimming class and my friends/family thought I was crazy. But after a lifetime of fearing water and multiple attempts at learning to swim, I decided to take a chance. And I am so glad that I did! After only a few online classes with Melon and a blowup backyard pool, I was finally able to overcome my fear of swimming. I was able to translate what I learned to be able to be 100% confident and comfortable in water and actually be able to swim across an inground pool! A lifetime worth of regret is finally overcome. Thanks to Melon and her unique Miracle Swimming teaching, I look forward to years of continuing to enjoy the water.
