Slow Learning

Naomi has been doing survival swimming for the lat 3 weeks. She goes every week day for 10 minutes. She started off really well, but seems to be having some difficulty in the last week or so. She still has 3 weeks of lessons to go, so I am confident that by that time she will be swimming like a pro. Here are a couple short clips of today's lesson.

3 Days and Swimming

Today was Noami's 3rd day of survival swim lessons (ISR). She has already learned that the side of the pool is her friend and safe place. She has learned to close her mouth and keep her eyes open under water and today she even swam a short distance by herself. I continue to be amazed at this teaching technique. After just 3 days to have my almost 2 year old swimming by herself is amazing. It is worth all the crying and not wanting to get in the pool.
