SWIMMING
WATSU
I trained swimming for 15 years at the National level, making my teaching very technically correct. I have been a swim coach for 16 years.
I cover all aspects of swimmer development: physical, psychological, and social. My class is a good place for the development of specific areas such as coordination, stamina, respiratory system, and sensory integration. People with difficulties are warmly welcome. My strong advantage is quickly implementing the most effective methods according to the client’s abilities and levels. When I teach children I always try and work with their imagination, telling a story and playing games, which are actually all the proper exercises and skills but made with much more fun!
Besides elementary teaching, I am able to create workouts for swimmers based on abilities, analyzing strokes and technique. Many triathlonist already got technical support at my sessions.
I CAN NOW OFFER PRIVATE SESSIONS AT YOUR OWN SWIMMING POOL or a friend’s pool …
Aquatic therapy, a water massage. It incorporates static passive streches and sequences of passive body movements or patterns performed at warm 33 degrees water. It is based on theories of meridians and introduces the applied techniques of Shiatsu into the water.
The primary objective is to allow the body to drift into a deeper state of relaxation.
The person is cradled throughout the various movement sequences. Weight is reduced on vertebrae and extremities, thus enhancing muscle relaxation. Once the relaxation is achieved aided by weightlessness effects, spine flexibility is increased to levels far beyond what can be reached on land.
WATSU has a profound effect on the neuromuscular system. It reliefs stress and chronic pain helps to ease the discomfort of pregnancy, used in sports training and recovery. It is beneficial for special needs.

“We are amazed by Kamila’s expertise… The children cannot wait for their next lesson tomorrow… Kamila’s approach is simply perfect and the fact that the children have begun to swim independently is a reflection on her excellent teaching and her wonderful (calm and kind) attitude.”
