Swimming Lessons

IMG_1986 Cole and Jordan spent about an hour each morning the last couple weeks working on their swimming skills.  For Cole, this was more of a refresher and a chance to improve his ability to take a breath and continue swimming.  For Jordan, this was to keep her from sinking to the bottom of the pool!  They took lessons from a lady in our neighborhood (so convenient!), and she did a great job meeting them at separate skill levels.  They both progressed a ton!

A basic back float… neither could do this at the start.

By the end of 2 weeks…

Diving for toys on the bottom… Cole is awesome at this now, but I didn’t get a more updated video toward the end of lessons. 

She worked with them on front glides, then added kicks, and finally arms.  Here’s how each progressed through the lessons.

Cole got to work on deep end jumps and dives at the end of the lessons!  He was pumped.

Proud of these two little fish, and I’m excited for all our pool fun to come this summer!
