Yes! At the Farnsworth Swim School, we teach all levels of swimming and are highly skilled at coaching swim team members. Swimmers tend to believe that once on the swim team, they’ll get all their needs met and learn everything about swimming. In fact, not much 1-on-1 instruction takes place on swim teams; the focus is on speed, not form. At the Farnsworth Swim School, our stroke clinic aids students in refining their form, mastering flip turns and racing dives, and more. Students improve by leveraging their strength to swim faster with less effort and more energy.

Acupressure and Jin Shin Jyutsu Services
May 30, 2010 By
I offer acupressure and Jin Shin Jyutsu services for primarily people with cancer, including children.
I offer 1 on 1 sessions, which are 1 hr long. An adult receives a session for 1 hr and during the last 10 min, I teach them potent energy points that they can do on themselves to promote overall, well-being and minimized side-effects of cancer. A child receives a session for about 45 min and for the last 10-15 min, I teach the parent healing tools that they can walk away with to use on their child to continue the healing process and feel better during cancer.
I also offer workshops, which teach “hands on” healing tools for cancer patients and their caregiver and workshops for parents of children with cancer. Some of the benefits of 1 on 1 sessions are as follows:
- Strengthening the immune system, which increases white blood cells and increases well-being.
- Reducing side-effects of all stages of cancer (onset of diagnosis, during and after chemo and remission).
- Helping one absorb medication and digest food, insomnia, depression, increasing mental clarity, and balancing the emotions.
During the workshops, I teach cancer patients and their caregivers as well as parents of children with cancer ( separate workshop)”hands on” healing tools that reduce the side-effects of cancer (the above side-effects), meditation tools that alleviate stress during cancer (mental, spiritual, and emotional) and nutrition that teaches one how to increase healthy cells through a healthy diet.
Acupressure is from China and releases endorphins or the “feel good” hormones from the body, which leave the person feeling balanced, energized, and joyful! Jin Sin Jyutsu is from Japan and is similar to acupressure and is called a physio philosophy, which means the art of knowing yourself. The hands are called the jumper cables and by jumper cabling the body through touch of potent energy points, one is able to tap more deeply into who they are. As a result, the person’s well-being is re-aligned.
My next class is The 3 Keys to Optimal Health While Living With Cancer: Acupressure/ Jin Shin Jyutsu, Meditation, and Nutrition.
Next class date is: 8/4 from 6-8pm at the wellness community in Mountain View.

Our New Website
May 27, 2010 By
Hi Friends,
I’m very pleased to launch this new Website. It has been an emotional yet fantastic voyage taking over the Farnsworth Swim School after my mother’s passing. My challenge and opportunity is to keep all of the fantastic aspects of the business my mom excelled at, as well as adding my own touches and personality.
One of the new aspects of the business is using technology to our advantage. This new Website will make it easier for my customers to book lessons, and make it easier for me to focus on teaching and spend less time on administration.
I’d love it if you, my fantastic customers and family, provide feedback and let me know what you like about the site, as well as what we can do to have it better serve you.
