Goldfish Swim School - Ashburn

Water Safety Tip Tuesday: Did you know drowning is the number one cause of injury-related death for children ages 1 to 4? While practicing water safety at the pool is crucial, it's just as important to practice water safety at home.

Today, we’re celebrating all of our Goldfish Moms. Happy #MothersDay!

Happy National Babysitters Day! Thank you, Babysitters! 🧡

Dive into #WaterSafetyMonth with our latest Goldfish At Home episode, where miss Jenny and her friends use their imaginations to learn about important water safety rules. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH_-jIQFv9vUVjcwUwQ3EKEvfepmbOx2C

Aloha little fishies, let's get some exercise and let's get moving! Dance with me!

Here's a message from our founders. 🧡

From our family to yours, here's a note from our founders about the reopening status of our schools.

While we patiently wait for our pools to reopen, we hope you'll make use of the fin-tastic tools we've put together to make a splash in your at-home routine.

Our Goldfish At Home videos on YouTube are a great way for your little fish to practice their swim skills, and help prepare them to jump back in the pool. You can dive into our latest adventure, which teaches kids about water safety here: https://bit.ly/2Ypc7g3

While now may not seem like a time for celebration, perhaps it's during times like these we need a reason to celebrate the most.

At Goldfish, celebrating has always been a core part of who we are. And, despite these difficult times we're all facing together, we're choosing to celebrate life's simple joys.

Spending more time with family. Receiving a phone call from a friend. Enjoying a homemade meal.

We hope you find your own reasons to celebrate and spread something positive to those around you.

All it takes is one ripple to make a big wave.

Leg kicks are another skill swimmers can practice on dry land. Have your child lay on their belly, raising their right leg first, then their left. The key is to have them do this without bending their knees! If you practice straight legs at home, it will help when swim class starts again.

Happy National High Five Day! Don't forget to give us a big High Five when you see us again!

Goldfish At Home has moved to YouTube! Now you can stream and share our swim-inspired exercises anywhere. Follow the link to dive into our latest adventure, and be sure to subscribe for updates when new episodes go live! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH_-jIQFv9vUUcfmn_Uw87iOOqOvjWytH&fbclid=IwAR2qcwkQpqq_sLY2DQxXOE4FBTk5HOIKeuOWVB79_zcAoPYBgk5FLdrUtCw

Here at Goldfish, we make a big deal about life's accomplishments by remembering to celebrate. In class, we hand out ribbons when our swimmers try something new, conquer their fears and master new skills.

Right now, we're all facing something new and unknown. In a sense, we're all learning how to tread water and doing our best to stay afloat.

So today, this ribbon is for you.

You are not alone. You are doing hard things. You are making an impact.

While we may not be together today, we want you to know we're celebrating you and the strides you're making every day. We're a community, and we're #inthistogether. Together, we will come out of this stronger than before.

If your kids are missing swim class and feeling a bit like fish out of water, this exercise is just one of many ways they can practice swimming without a pool and work on their freestyle stroke at home.

While standing up, have your child make windmill motions, starting with their right arm up and left arm down. Challenge them to keep their arms straight and close to their head, with their fingers together as if they're ready to pull the water. Repeat 10 times.

When it’s time to head back to the pool, your little goldfish will already be making great strides and seeing some extraordinary results!
