STAR Swimmer

Ready to Go to Swim Lessons

Big arms...Pull, Pull

High 5's for doing an awesome job!

Swimming under water all by myself to get the rings

I love floating!

Brooke is working hard on her caterpillars

Brooke started swim lessons last week. Since she is not three yet we can't enroll her in any programs through the city, so this year we signed her up for private lessons through STAR SWIM SCHOOL. The first day she jumped right into the pool to meet her teacher Miss Kelli. Brooke has always been a little dare devil and jumped right into the pool. Last year she used water wings and floated around the pool on her own. Miss Kelli did some warm ups then tried to get Brooke to do some swimming on her own. Brooke did it, but wasn't a huge fan of it. I knew we needed to practice at home and get her used to the water again and not having a floating device. We practiced both days on the weekend and she did SUPER! We practiced all the things she learned at Swim class and she LOVED it. At lessons this week she was very anxious to show Miss Kelli all that she had been practicing. Brooke was AWESOME. She was swimming on her own to the wall, going under water to get rings, floating with little support, jumping off the edge, using big arms and kickers. Just in her 3 lessons she has learned so much-I know she will a great swimmer!.................I am looking forward to a fun year out at the pool with our new little STAR swimmer!
