Swimming Lessons

For a family who loves to go to the beach, it's funny that none of us knew how to swim.  That's why I decided to enroll Sofi in Bert Lozada's Swim School.  I was planning to enroll her in Xavier but opted for the one in D' Ace Plaza in Kapitolyo.  Based on the description, she will fall under the Snapper 1 level, but her ID card says S2 (snapper 2?)

SNAPPER 1 (Age: 4 years old and above)
For children who are afraid of the water or little or no swimming experience.

SNAPPER 2 (Age: 4 to 6 years old)   
For children ready to work without the parent or caregiver and are developing 10m Survival Swim and 10m Dog Paddle.

It costs P5,000 (+ 250 for the ID, etc) for 10 sessions.  Now, we're on Day 3, I noticed that Sofi can "float" longer in the water while Teacher Tina assists her.  She still holds on to Teacher but she doesn't clasp as much as it was on Day 1. She cried during Day 1, didn't cry a bit in Day 2 then cried again today.   I just hope she becomes more confident in the next days.
