"Most people think swimming only trains the arms and legs…
but water can actually change how your eyes and brain work together. 🏊‍♂️
When you swim, your eyes constantly lose stable visual reference points because the body is rotating, the water surface is moving, and your head position keeps changing.
To avoid losing balance, the brain is forced to improve something called:
spatial orientation — your ability to understand where your body is in space.
That means during swimming, the brain is continuously recalculating:
• body position
• direction
• balance
• movement timing
all in real time.
This is one reason many swimmers develop unusually strong body awareness and coordination compared to many land-based sports."
Coach Yazan

Quick reminder with Memorial Day next weekend: Please don’t expect your child to jump into the pool this Memorial Day Weekend and swim just like they did at the end of last summer!
Children grow a lot over the winter - often 2-3 inches taller and several pounds heavier. The swim skills they learned last year were built for their smaller body. Even though some muscle memory is still there, their arms and legs are now longer, their center of gravity has changed, and the wiring from their brain to their muscles has to adjust to this new, bigger body!
We strongly recommend a refresher course for children age 6 & older. For younger children it is especially important to keep taking regular swim lessons!
