Our Term 3 results are in 🌊

This term we did something a wee bit different to how learn to swim is usually measured: we measured every child at the start of term and again seven weeks later. Not just what they could do in the water, but how they felt in it.

Here's what we found:

✨ Every child improved. Not one went backwards.

✨ At the start of term, half our little swimmers couldn't get themselves back to the pool edge. By the end, every child had made progress and half were doing it confidently on their own.

✨ Floating unassisted went from 5 in 8 who couldn't, to just 1.

✨ Emotional confidence in the water rose 50%.

Some kids arrive fearless, without the skills to back it up. Some have the skills but freeze. Our job is to bring the two together, because a child who feels safe in the water learns faster and swims safer.

To our kids, it's just a play and a swim with Simon. To us, it's the Flow State Aquatic Method™ at work. 🌺

THE BEST THING EVER ✨

Getting sent videos like these from our students' parents, there is truly nothing better than seeing a young child who has gone from feeling anxious around the water to now looking forward to her time in it.

Plain and simple, that's our goal. For every child to have a loving relationship with the water. 🌺 🌺 🌺

End of term certificates.

WE DON'T MOVE THEM UP- WE MOVE THEM FORWARD 🌺

We run our programs a little differently. We don’t have ‘levels’ or ‘stages’ that kids move up to. We don’t have dolphins, starfish and sea turtles. Because when a child ‘moves up’ and gets their starfish certificate, they don't understand what they’ve done or why. The result is achieved, but has the effort been seen?
The goals for the families differ, but our goal stays the same- for the kids to love the water and to have a safe and effective understanding of what their capabilities and limits are around any body of water.

We don’t see learning to swim as a competitive environment. It’s an extremely personal one. Once a child reaches squad- sure, but when learning a life skill, if I were needing to perform to achieve stages, I would probably miss the point and focus more on ‘winning’ than on actually retaining what I need to. We don’t do this with teaching our kids how to read; why should swimming be different?

Is this unconventional- yes.

Is it effective?- It must be- our bookings have doubled every single term.

Could this work at scale?- maybe.

Are we teaching national standard aquatic skills and techniques in every class?- Yes. Behind the scenes, kids are definitely on a certain level; they’ve mastered X and now need to learn X. Everyone is progressing, moving forward, and absolutely hitting goals and milestones. But it’s how we are relaying all of this back to them and their brain that’s the difference. How it’s presented to them.

How do we track measurable progress- easy!- pre- and post-term based surveys on water anxiety and competency levels from both the parents and teachers. As well as a progress report for each child on their technique and skill progression over the term.

Are all these things extra effort?- Sure, not heaps, but yes, it is.

Is it worth it?- Abso-frigen-lutely. If we’re not in the game to be changing how children think the world and people around them view who they are as a person and giving them lifelong confidence in the water and in turn in their actual life… what the hell are we even doing here? ✨

Day/NIGHT two! Another very informative, inspiring and energising day at 💥 we had some very insightful conversations with industry leaders and gained such great guidance and motivation for the gap we are looking to fill in the aquatic industry at large. 🐠

We finished up with our AI activation we made where SwimCon attendees could ‘Byronify’ themselves. Hot vibes included:
- Real Estate Mogul
- Lighthouse walking insta health nut
- Wellness Coach/ Vlogger
- Surf obsessed frother
We had 97 activations last night and a very busy stall. Thanks to everyone who came to say hi, it was so much fun laughing and connecting. A very special community we are now proud to be apart of 💕

To all the attendees, presenters and organisers- well done! Bring on SWIMCON27 in the Goldy! 🥳

Huge thanks to SimplySwim for hosting the function last night and letting us bring in our activation. 🥂 And a HUGE thanks to Brendon, Rhiannon, Joanne, Gary and the whole SWIM Australia team for being such fantastic hosting and putting on such a killer event! You guys rock! 🤘

We hate goodbyes! But sometimes, it’s what they need. They’re ready. We achieve everything we set out to. The door is always open for them, and guess what? Majority of the time, we recalibrate, set our next set of goals together and keep on powering forward! 🐠🌺🐚

Every child is unique. Every child brings something to the lesson each time. Fear, nervousness, excitement, perhaps another feeling. We reach the child, before we teach the drills. Guard down, goggles on. 🩵🐠🐬
