Michael Phelps provides Baltimore Ravens swimming classes

• Several Baltimore Ravens gamers requested swim classes.
• Michael Phelps, a Baltimore native, supplied to show the gamers.
• Phelps gave the gamers a lesson at Loyola University’s aquatic middle.
• The Ravens donated $100,000 to the Michael Phelps Foundation.

Last month, some members of the Baltimore Ravens requested help in studying to swim.

Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey then posted a video to Instagram with teammates offensive deal with Ronnie Stanley, security Kyle Hamilton and tight finish Charlie Kolar asking the best swimmer of all-time, Baltimore native Michael Phelps, to lend a serving to hand.

“Mr. Phelps, we have a problem. Did you know that one in three Ravens cannot swim? We have a solution for you, sir. Come to Ravens training camp and this beautiful aquatic center and teach us how to swim,” they stated.

The 23-time Olympic gold medalist was very happy to oblige.

“I got y’all!!! Let’s do it!” he stated.

Phelps made a visit to the Ravens coaching camp Tuesday, after which the workforce hopped on buses and headed over to Loyola University’s aquatic middle for a swimming lesson.

“I didn’t know what I was getting into,” Phelps said. “I had no idea what their comfort level was. When I see the guys in there and some of the guys who are literally working on floating and breathing, and they’re focused on paying attention to those details, it shows their vulnerability, especially when they’re uncomfortable. It was a special day. Racing some of the fellas in the 25 (meter). My son raced some of the guys. It was a great day. I truly hope they learned something, hopefully got some confidence, and hopefully can transition into something else.”

Members of the Michael Phelps Foundation helped within the lesson, and the Ravens gave again by making a $100,000 donation to the muse.
