Why Swimming?
The Life-Saving Sport That Builds Character
Swimming is a sport that teaches dedication, goal orientation, and consistency.
Besides all of the fantastic benefits of swimming, a massive advantage of swimming is water safety. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children ages 1-4. A potential drowning is easily avoidable when your child is taught proper life-saving measures.
Research-Backed Water Safety
In May of 2010, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released research stating that swim lessons may reduce the drowning risk of children ages 1- to 4-years-old. That study, Association Between Swimming Lessons and Childhood Drowning, published in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine, March 2009, by Brenner et al., was the first study to probe the relationship between drowning reduction and swimming skills.
"Participation in formal swimming lessons was associated with an 88% reduction in the risk of drowning in the 1- to 4-year-old children..."
