Treading (Deep Water) Workshop | 20 July

Service Description

🌊 Treading Water Workshop (Deep water workshop) – Get Comfortable in Deep Water For Surfers and Surf-Enthusiasts. Mandatory to know how to swim. This workshop will not focus on how to swim. If you know how to swim but still feel nervous in deep water - this one’s for you. Theory (30 min) Why deep water confidence matters for surfing – Wipeouts, hold-downs, and why surfers need to stay calm when they can’t touch the bottom. – Basic ocean etiquette Understanding the ocean as a surfer – Basic wave behaviour: why waves feel scary when you’re under but how understanding them reduces ocean anxiety. – The link between treading water, duck dives, and paddling out. Pool Session (1 hr) Vertical jumps = simulating jumping off a board or falling off – Help participants get used to that “falling into deep water” feeling. Floating + sculling = Treading in the deep water – Staying relaxed and floating is the skill that helps you recover faster after being knocked off your board. Join us for a guided 1.5-hour workshop in collaboration with expert instructors from Nisha Millet Swimming Academy, designed to help swimmers build confidence in deeper pools (and oceans). You’ll learn multiple techniques to stay afloat, both vertically and horizontally, with a focus on conserving energy and staying calm when you can’t touch the floor. Based on how you're progressing, we'll also include a few gentle underwater drills to help you get truly comfortable below the surface. 📍 Location: Bangalore City University Sports Block 🎯 For swimmers only (you must already know how to swim atleast freestyle) 👥 Small group session, guided by certified instructors This is not a swimming class - it's about learning to trust yourself in deep water and knowing what to do when you're out of your depth (literally). Perfect if you: – Panic when you can’t touch the floor – Want to surf or dive but fear open water – Just want to feel stronger and more relaxed in deep ends Post the swim, you can accompany us to have Dosa/Idly at one of Bangalore's iconic hotels.
