Swimming Lesson #5

Usually for lesson #5 parents are invited to go swimming with their kids and take pictures. So, last Saturday Keld went in and I tried to make some videos while chasing Zack around.









Kelden doesn't seem to have a gift for swimming but he will try everything his instructor asks him to do. He has therefore progressed quite a bit, even if he still can't really swim on his own.










As you can see from this last video, Julia still won't show all her skills. Unlike Kelden, she can swim pretty well on her own, but she is too shy. We had hoped that she would be better with Keld, but it still took half the lesson time before she decided to try.




Finally, she did it and her instructor now knows what to teach her next (she needs to practise her kicking).
In the next video you can see how she still hesitates and stops but then when she recognizes her school teacher (whom I'm talking to and who came to go swimming with her son) she suddenly is able to go without stopping...





Her favorite is still swimming on the back though.





I hope she won't hesitate from now on (but I know her, she will..). Maybe we should send Keld every time?
