Swimming lessons at rockwood

The start of January we signed the kids up for swimming lessons at Rockwood through Swim America. Any age can join in and they give you a test at the beginning to see what stage  you are. Bo is in stage 3 and really wants to move up to stage 4. In order to do that he has to show them that he can consistently swim on his own with no aid by anything a certain distance. Plus, he has to be able to float on his back. This is him practicing with the teach. 

I believe they go up to level 20 which is obviously a very advanced swimmer.

Emily is in stage 1 which means it is the first stage not parent/child class so she goes in by herself. The first week she did well but the second week did a lot of crying and clinging to the teacher. This makes it hard to advance to the next level.

This is Bo after he took off from the end to swim to the teach. He loves wearing his goggles.

This is another picture of Emmy swimming on the noodle with the teacher's help but still crying.
