SARASOTA, Fla., Dec. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Miracle Swimming School for Adults (MSSA) recently highlighted some disturbing CDC statistics* that point to more than 4,000 people who die each year in preventable drowning accidents, eighty percent of whom are adults. Founded by professional competitive swimmer Melon Dash in 1983, MSSA uses a radically different approach to teach people how to swim. MSSA treats swimming instruction as an aquatic mindfulness exercise first – one that stresses comfortability rather than just technical skill. The Miracle Swimming Technique eliminates fear, prevents panic, and trains far safer swimmers – especially students who are afraid of the water.

Key Points: 
  • Founded by professional competitive swimmer Melon Dash in 1983, MSSA uses a radically different approach to teach people how to swim.
  • MSSA treats swimming instruction as an aquatic mindfulness exercise first one that stresses comfortability rather than just technical skill.
  • The Miracle Swimming Technique eliminates fear, prevents panic, and trains far safer swimmers especially students who are afraid of the water.
  • But if you teach people how to be calm in deep water, there will be far less cause for drowning.
