Do you think swim lessons are reserved only for the warm weather? Think again!
It’s a common misconception that you should stop swimming in the colder months. But swimming isn’t just reserved for Summer! All of our lessons take place in indoor heated swimming pools (around 84-86 Farenheit) so there’s no reason for the weather to be warm outside. Take a break from the cold and come improve your skills! Here are a few benefits of continuing swim lessons year-round:
1. YOUR CHILD CAN REMAIN ACTIVE AND HEALTHY BY SWIMMING.
It can be hard to keep kids active when it’s cold and wet outside. Swimming makes sure they have an indoor activity that can keep them energetic and healthy even when the weather isn’t so great outdoors.
2. SWIMMING HELPS MAINTAIN A HEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM.
Staying active helps build a stronger immune system which helps protect your kids from illnesses, infections, and other not-so-nice stuff. Some parents think that when the weather gets colder, putting their children in the water will get them sick. But it’s always Summer at Swim FIns! We monitor the water and air to make sure they’re never too cold for you and your children.
3. SWIMMING THROUGHOUT THE YEAR KEEPS YOUR CHILD CONFIDENT ABOUT THEIR SWIMMING SKILLS
Taking a break from swimming lessons for a season results in declining swimming performance. Without practice and consistency, it is hard to avoid skill regression. Why not keep your kids feeling confident about their swimming by taking another session?
4. YOU WILL BE READY FOR THE BEACH AND POOL NEXT SUMMER
It’s smarter to be prepared! Taking swimming lessons throughout the Winter ensures that by the time Summer comes around, your kiddo will be swimming well and you’ll have less worries about their safety around the water during your next trip to the ocean, lake, or pool!
5. WE’LL SAY IT AGAIN: YOU WILL NOT CATCH A COLD FROM SWIMMING!
It’s worth saying again! This is a common misconception and far from the truth.
Learning how to swim not only ensures your child’s basic safety in the water, but also helps them stay healthy and feel more confident about their swimming skills. Our Winter swimming lessons schedule is online for you to start planning. We welcome all ages to our classes!
