Geoff Glaser
Co-Founder & Head Coach
"For me, swimming has become a way of life – for fitness, for staying healthy as I grow older, and for the sanity that comes from swimming as a form of meditation. I invite you to share in this lifelong sport and enjoy the benefits for cardio-vascular health, physical strength, and a sense of spiritual well being that comes from caring for your body and the fellowship with other swimmers. It's a well-kept secret, but swimmers are fun people!"
- Coach Geoff

Why Make Waves?
Being in water is like being in outer space; it is an environment where you can experience near weight-lessness.
Here are 5 reasons why you should choose swimming as your favourite recreational activity:
1. Swimming involves the use of all the major muscle groups and gives you an effective workout, regardless of your ability;
2. Swimming is a low impact, near-weightless and all-round resistance activity where you can just tune out;
3. Swimming caters for all skill levels. You can perform many different exercises when in the water i.e. swimming any of the four strokes, aqua jogging, walking in the water (adding resistance), kicking with a board, using a pull buoy and swimming with your arms only, kicking with a vertical kickboard, using fins etc. there are unlimited possibilities;
4. When you swim, you don't get hot and sticky like land-based exercise. Swimming is cool and refreshing, or if it's relatively cold outside, nice and warm;
5. You have an increased mobility, you can feel like you're in outer space and quite simply, swimming feels great!

The academy was founded on one simple principle: no matter what your age or level or ability in swimming, the best learning results from the best teaching. And the finest instruction comes from those who have the most extensive swimming experience and expertise.
Proficient swimmers in Tucson and Phoenix progress naturally because they study correct techniques and practice under the watchful eye of a certified Dolphins of the Desert Coach or Teacher. For every swimmer, it involves identifying poor technique and learning how to feel the right way to swim. For the specialized swimmer, the tri-athlete, the long-distance or open-water swimmer, it means developing customized training programs through the Swimming Academy’s experts for successful goal achievement.
At Dolphins of the Desert, we offer premium swimming lessons at affordable prices, and we believe you will find an economical choice that will meet your learning objectives.
