Pierson took swim lessons over the summer. One class in July and another in August / September, and he did SOOO well. He is jumping off of the diving board and swimming by himself without floaties. My assumption is that he will regress some over the winter, but hopefully he will pick it right back up. This boy is not a fan of having water splashed in his face (who is?) but he is doing much better. He absolutely refused to jump off the diving board at the beginning of lessons and now loves doing it!! And yes...I did use bribery (ice cream) at the beginning to get him to jump off the diving board.
The lessons were through Frisco Swim and we were very pleased. The class only had Pierson and one other child (same age). Pierson is always asking when he can go to swim lessons again. Might be a big cheesy, but I was so excited when he was swimming all by himself and jumping off the diving board. I took way too many videos. Very proud moment for me!!
