Aubs has had all the components under her fins for quite some time... she just needed to put them together, in order to be a smooth swimmer. We had a breakthrough, on this second day of summer.
In a methodical way, she went from water-slapping and lots of head motion to gliding, as she breathed effortlessly, along the waterway. Here's how:
Step 1: Do a dead man's float. Okay...
Step 2: Add strokes.
Step 3: Add a kick.
Step 4: Breath by lifting your head to one side only, opposite your stroke arm. On the next stroke, put head back into the water and release air.
Step 5: Glide, Girl, Glide!
By the time Bri arrived, my Sugar was rhythmically making her way from one end of the pool to the other.
A great day!
