[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you want someone in the water? Sounds like your children have learned the strokes just fine without it. Kids with a decent natural feel for the water do not need someone consistently in the water with them after age 6. They have to learn by listening, seeing a demonstration, and then trying it for themselves and getting feedback. You’re better off giving up the coach in the water requirement and just looking for a low swimmer to coach ratio so your kids get enough individual attention. [/quote] OP here. I think my 7 year old would do fine with a coach outside the water, but my 6 year old needs someone to physically move his body. He is not old enough to watch and listen and then replicate what was done.[/quote]
