Simply Strong Kids: SafeSwim ~
Swimming season is here! We’re excited to announce our all-new SafeSwim program to get kids 18 mos.+ confident — and most importantly, SAFE — in the water!
As a mom and veteran pediatric physical therapist, Coach Kara is passionate about ensuring kids’ safety. Every SafeSwim private lesson starts with an assessment of your child’s physical strength and coordination in the pool, with focus on facilitating movements to save them from drowning.
What is the SafeSwim Program?
Held at Coach Kara’s heated pool, SafeSwim is four consecutive days of an immersion swim program, each private lesson lasting 20-30 minutes. (NOTE: this is NOT an ISR certification program for infants and toddlers).
Parents get in the pool on day four to learn handling techniques and how to facilitate continued learning.
SafeSwim is Serious. Seriously FUN!
Our Top 3 Goals are…
-
#1 - Know how to Stay Safe in Case of Emergency
Coach Kara prioritizes teaching your child to safely swim to the edge/step of a pool in the event they fall in. Specifically, they will learn to put their face in the water and propel their body from one spot to another.
-
#2 - Improve Confidence and Independence
Safety is all about confidence. Coach Kara will empower your child to be more confident and independent with movement in the water.
-
#3 - Motivate Child to Safely Explore Water Play
Imagine your child joining you, their peers, friends and family in the water this summer! SafeSwim stresses safety, and FUN! After all, these are children, and we want them to be excited to safely explore water play and swimming!
