Total Immersion™ focuses on swimming intelligently. We believe that by practicing the most efficient technique possible, swimmers will move through water with a speed and ease that traditional instruction simply cannot match.

As long as you have human DNA, Total Immersion™ is guaranteed to make you swim faster, easier and happier laps than you ever have before. Although you may already be able to traverse a body of water, we can teach you to do it with an ease and fluency that you’ve never thought possible.

Absolutely not. Total Immersion™ is highly effective for any adult learning to swim for the first time no matter what your past experiences have been or what your future goals may be.

Yes! Total Immersion™ has helped countless hydrophobic individuals who are now proud to report that they can put their faces in water with confidence and swim across deep, open water with leisure. We can enable anyone to enjoy the serenity of being totally immersed.

Total Immersion™ teaches you how to swim in the most relaxed and efficient manner.  We'll be comparing the number of strokes you made to complete a lap from before you started your first session and towards your completion of the course.  The result is usually a 25%-40% reduction in your stroke count, and lots of energy left for you to do more effortless and enjoyable laps!

Of course! Total Immersion™ is Kaizen swimming – based on the principle of continuous improvement. Because humans naturally have such a low level of efficiency when moving through water, there are endless gains to be made in decreasing energy expenditure and increasing speed. One could literally enjoy a lifetime of constant improvement with Total Immersion and never experience the “terminal mediocrity” reached so quickly with conventional methods.

Yes. Total Immersion instructs students to move with grace and purpose whether they’re swimming freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke or butterfly.

Yes, kids who are ready to learn proper strokes will benefit from TI instruction. Whether your child is learning to swim strokes for recreation, or training competitively, you will love the results that TI will deliver.

Total Immersion™ has empowered individuals with illnesses and injuries of all kinds to improve their health and strength with exposure to the uniquely healing qualities of exercising in water.

TI instructors have helped many individuals with disabilities enjoy the benefits of swimming and the freeing experience of moving confidently through water.

You will with TI! Conventional instruction might lead you to believe that you are a lost cause in the swimming realm, but TI guarantees that you’ll swim better than you ever thought possible.We've seen people who sink to the floor and this is due to excessive muscle tension that is probably rooted in nervousness or lack of experience in the water. Once a student learns to relax and discover how his body works in the water, he will learn to float to the surface without any effort.

Fitness swimmers will benefit from the increased enjoyment of swimming and the reduced risk of injury that the TI technique provides.

Total Immersion™ is taught by mastering the TI Drill Sequence. Because every individual has a unique pace and process for learning, it is impossible to give an exact amount of time; however, many students are able to master the basic sequence after five to eight hours of instruction with a coach. Total Immersion™ is taught on the principle of Kaizen (Continuous Improvement), and therefore the opportunities for improvement and the quest for perfection will last a lifetime.

Swim Suit
Female students - Two piece bikinis might look stunning on you at the beach, but it's not very practical for swimming lessons since there will be a lot of movements in the water. We recommend our female students to wear a comfortable snuggly fit one-piece bathing suit .

Male students - We strongly recommend that you wear a snuggly fit  swim trunks or tight fitting swim/bike shorts or “jammers”, rather than loose-fitting board shorts. Wearing loose shorts will make it difficult for you to achieve balance and flow in the water.
For those who are self-conscious, we recommend that you wear a snuggly fit  RASH GUARD (swim shirt) over your swim suit.

Stingray™ Sun Protection swim suits are available for sale. Check out our Product Catalog for more info.

Goggles
Factors to consider when buying goggles :

1. FIT & COMFORT– goggles come in different sizes, try different types or styles before buying a pair to ensure that it fits the shape of your face.
2. LEAK-PROOF –  you want to make sure that the water does not go inside your goggles. Owning an extra pair of goggles is also advised, just in case the other one leaks. 
3. LENS – goggles have different lenses…choose the one that fits your purpose. Since we will be swimming outdoors, you may use goggles with clear lens, or light tinted lens.

Zoggs™ and Aquasphere™ goggles are available for sale. Check out our Product Catalog for more info.

Big Towel / Bath Robe
Plan to bring at least one clean towel to the class with you, preferably two. Our venues does not provide the use of towels for Aqualogic Students unless you are a member of their health club or a checked-in hotel guest .

Training Fins
Wearing fins promotes the proper kicking movement in freestyle, backstroke and butterfly. We usually have a couple of pairs available to our students, but investing in a pair is encouraged, as you will be using them for practice even after you finish the swim course.

Aquasphere™ Zip fins available for sale. Check out our Product Catalog for more info.

Non-slip Shoes / Slippers
The pool area can be very slippery since it is always wet, so to avoid  from any accidents , we recommend that you wear non-slip shoes / slippers when walking around the pool deck and locker rooms.

Crocs™ footwear is perfect to wear before and after your swim lesson as they are not only very comfortable, light-weight, and slip-resistant, but also very fashionable. Available at Crocs Concept Stores in Manila: Bonifacio High Street, Ayala Trinoma, SM Mall Of Asia, Ayala Greenbelt 5, Robinsons Ermita, Promenade Greenhills, Alabang Town Center, SM Marikina, Robinsons Galleria, SM Megamall, Gateway mall Cubao, Shangri-la Edsa Plaza Mall,Ayala Glorietta3 and Cash & Carry. Also available at: Rustans, SM Department Stores and Planet Sports.

Swim Ear Plugs
Swimming ear plugs allow people to swim or participate in aquatic sports without getting water in their ears. Ear plugs are highly recommended for swimming, especially in the case of people who swim frequently, because swimmers are at risk of developing infections in their ears as a result of frequent irritation with water. Infections which arise as a result of swimming are known, fittingly, as “swimmer's ear,” and they can be painful and annoying.

Zoggs™ Aqua Plugz are available for sale. Check out our Product Catalog for more info.
