Rain or shine (as long as there is no lightening) swim lessons - TopicsExpress



          

Rain or shine (as long as there is no lightening) swim lessons continue and folks keep coming. What a JOY! Just this week alone Ive worked with 3 year olds up to 76 year old - all learning how to swim!! Regardless of the age the excitement and freedom of learning how to be comfortable in the water is absolutely incredible to experience! The rain just adds to it! Uncomfortable being on their back goes away when they feel the rain drops and even open their mouths to taste the rain! Fear of holding their breath goes away when they watch from underneath the water droplets splashing on the surface! Here are two videos from the 76 year old who was petrified to even get in the water however somewhere within her she was willing to try! One of the videos was her first time on her back and we got her swimming - notice I am not holding her once I get her going in the right direction and the noise is the rain coming down. The other video was of her taking breaths for the first time. All of this accomplished in just over 2 hours!
