Learn Mindful Swimming in 8 Weeks

Calm your Mind. Move your Body. Transform your Relationship with Water.

Welcome to Mindful Swimming, an 8-week program designed by Lauren Valcin to transform your mindfulness practise through the art of swimming. This course is tailored for adults who can swim but feel anxious, tense or disconnected in the pool. My mission is to create a space where you can step out of the chaos of your life and into the serenity and calm of the water.

What if the pool could be your place of peace, where you soften, breathe and reconnect? This isn’t just a swimming lesson, it’s an invitation to change how you feel in the water and in yourself. Join us for an 8-week journey designed to help you feel calmer, more connected and more confident in the water through gentle, mindful swimming.
