Adaptive Water Sports Mastery System

Adaptive Water Sports Mastery System®
 
Phase I Courses - These are introductory courses for people who have had little or no experience with a particular activity. They lay the foundation essential for all of our other courses.
 
Phase II Courses - These courses reinforce and build upon the basics presented in Phase I. The many new skills introduced at this level are developed through practice in a variety of settings. Emphasis is placed on becoming more proficient with movement and technical skills.
 
Phase III Courses - These advanced courses are for people who have a solid grasp of our Phase II skills. Emphasizing specific aspects of an activity, these courses will help you to develop the highest level of proficiency and technical skill in Adaptive Water Sports.
