Before starting swim lessons at Goldfish Swim School Gabriel (4) and Rafael (2) never had formal classes nor did they know how to swim. I touched a little about this in my initial review on Goldfish. Both kids have made so much progress since day one!
After 12 weeks Gabriel is so close to graduating to a Junior level 2. This means that he will be able to swim 5 feet on his own. So far he’s able to float on his back on his own, jump and pull himself out of the pool, and has a lot more confidence to try swimming 5 feet on his own.
Rafael is doing better with his paddling, kicking and having his head underwater during water dips. We are working really hard on his independence when climbing the wall or floating on his own on the giant foam duck or board.
The teachers at Goldfish truly make a difference with how fast they are learning and how much they love coming to school. They make is so exciting for the kids when they master a new skill. The encouragement given by the teacher’s boost their confidence which makes them work just that much harder to get to the next level.
I can’t wait to see what stride the kids make in a couple more weeks. Maybe I’ll have at least one independent swimmer before fall!
