Our Mission is to:
Give Families the Gift of Water Safety & Community!! We teach a unique program with a Survival First Approach.

Once our swimmers have the knowledge to survive an accidental fall into any body of water, they progress to swim technique!

🥽Have you ever noticed that our swimmers never wear goggles? That is because we have a no goggles rule at Shining Stars! But why?🤔

🛟Here are some reasons why practicing swimming without goggles matters👇️

🌟It takes away panic in emergencies!
If your little one is not comfortable with water on their face when without goggles, then an accidental fall into the water would be EXTRA jarring. The rush of water over their face can cause shock and disorientation if they’re not used to it

🌟It improves Breath Control !
Without goggles, kiddos naturally learn to manage their breathing, close their eyes on instinct, and prevent water from entering their nose and mouth by holding their breath and blowing bubbles

🌟It helps with awareness!
Feeling water on their face helps little ones to understand where they are in the water, making it easier to float, navigate, and find their way to the surface naturally

🛟 Goggles are very useful, and they definitely have their place, but practicing without them builds confidence and water safety skills for real emergencies!

🪜Does your little one know how to climb out of the pool?

⭐️If your kiddo accidentally falls into the water or becomes tired, knowing how to swim to the wall and climb out can help them get to safety quickly!

🪸Use your big muscles and climb out of the pool in this order - Elbow, elbow, belly, knee, knee. This is the easiest way for kiddos to get out!

⭐️ Using your elbows and knees gives a little more balance and stability to the climb so you don't fall back in!

🪸Practice this skill with your little one next time you are in the pool this Summer

✨️5 Things worth the money - Swim teacher edition🏊‍♀️

I LOVE this trend so here is my take on it💙

✨️These are some things that I think are definitely worth the money! Safety precautions and making safe choices in and around the water is priceless!

💦Tomorrow is the last day of National Drowning Prevention week so we want to share 3 tips on staying safe in and around the water💦⁠

🛟 Wear a lifejacket! Other devices that are trendy are designed to keep your child upright in the water instead of enforcing safe water practices and positions!⁠ Lifejackets push you into a backfloat when you are tired or out of balance! ⁠

🛟 Always swim with a buddy! Swimming with a buddy is one of the most effective ways to stay safe in the water. Even strong swimmers can experience cramps, get tired, or unexpected water conditions that make it difficult to get back to shore or stay afloat!

🛟 Never leave kiddos unattended and keep them within arms reach! Drowning can happen quickly and quietly. It doesn't always involve splashing or calls for help. Constant, attentive supervision is 𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 whenever kiddos are in or around water!
