Noah is Learning to Swim


Jason has worked on swimming with Noah each summer, but we thought we would give swimming lessons a try before summer starts. The closest YMCA offers classes in our area for kids of all ages. They are 7 weeks long for a half hour on Saturday mornings, and Noah has been thrilled to go!
  



This little ham is so excited that he put his face in the water and swam with the instructors last week.

There are about 12-15 kids in his class and 4-5 teachers. The kids are divided into beginning and intermediate swimmers with a lot of one-on-one time.



"Hang on to the side of the pool and just keep kicking" 


Noah's small group was all boys for the day. They swam to the other side of the pool to practice jumping in the water with their instructor. He looks forward to swimming lessons each week. By June when they are over, he will be ready to hit the neighborhood pool!
