“It looks so easy!” 🙊

Let’s be real for a second—treading water looks effortless from the pool deck, but your body is actually multitasking like crazy.
To stay afloat, you aren’t just doing one thing. You are coordinating 5 distinct skills all at the exact same time. 🤯

While it is great to practice each movement solo in the shallow end, real mastery happens when you say just one word to yourself, and your body naturally triggers all five movements at once. 🧠💦

Brand new to this? Don’t stress. At the end of this video, I break down and demonstrate each step in slow motion.
✅ Check my profile for more tutorial videos.

📸 Screenshot the 5-skills checklist at the end of the reel and SAVE this video so you can reference it during your next pool session!

What’s the hardest part of treading water for you? Is it the legs, the arms, or the breathing? Let me know below! 👇

✅ Try this: First learn to
L❤️VE the water to make learning to swim easier.

✨Once you love the feeling of the water on your skin and the lightness you feel, you will have a positive mindset to keep working at learning rather than a fear based one.

💦Trying to learn to swim from a place of fear?
✅ Try this mindset shift: People with fear and trauma, must first change their relationship with water before they can learn to trust!

💦Have a fear of water that’s keeping you from learning to swim and enjoying vacations?
✅ Try this: Practice being calm in the water before you try to learn any skills.

✨Once you can be calm in the water, you can begin your learn to swim journey.

🧘‍♂️You’ve heard of yoga flow? Here’s a swim flow for you. I love flowing one skill into another as a relaxing way to practice. On a practical note: being able to move between skills (without touching a wall or the bottom) gives you ultimate control when you’re in deep water. 💦 Knowing you have options and you’ve practiced seamlessly flowing between them can give you real peace of mind! I use this flow even in the middle of the ocean 🌊🐠

How many can you do without touching the ground? 👏

😩Does treading water seem impossible? 😓Do you tire out quickly?
⚓️Have a fear of sinking?
Try this technique in ⚠️shallow water⚠️ 👇🏼

❌ Don’t view treading as an endurance activity that requires lots of strength -
✅ first we’re going to be smart and make our lungs become our life jackets. Since air is free only then should you add arms or legs for more support. 🙉Optional: if you need more support —keep your ears under water and look up while completing all other steps.

While in shallow water, you can feel safe to try out a few of these techniques.

👉The goal is to fill your lungs with air and see how that affects your natural buoyancy. Try this before you even try to move your arms or legs!

👉 once you get comfortable with using air for buoyancy, and you are able to keep your face out of the water while lifting your legs up briefly, then you’re ready to do the steps in this video.

👉 don’t forget to practice the breathing techniques from my previously posted videos 👀 they will help you here.

👉if you don’t keep enough air in your lungs your arms and legs have to work harder!

happy treading!

😧Have you mastered this water safety sequence? This is the easiest way to go from deep water to shallow water. And with practice it can be done effortlessly!

✨Start in shallow water-all sequences need practiced over and over before moving on to deep water.

The sequence:
💦 tread water
💦 place ears underwater
💦 inhale via mouth
💦 stretch into back float
💦 add arms
💦 add flutter kick

I have a video tutorial for each one of these steps on my page so go check those out first if you have not mastered these skills individually.

If learning any of these water safety skills has been on your bucket list, but you can’t bring yourself to even get started, comment “FIRST STEPS” below and I will send you my breathing foundations exercises. These are the first 5 steps that I take all of my students through to prepare them for all of the skills in this video. No pool required.
