Learn to Dive

Signed up Clarence for a 3 day "Learn to Dive" course at Toa Payoh Swimming Complex during the Dec holidays. He enjoyed the course cos his best buddy Issac was at the course too.They started the day with some dry run exercise on the trampoline and mats. Then they went for a break and after that, it was water splashing time.

3m jump:



3m touch feet dive:



3m tuck jump:

He attempted a few 5m jumps on day 2. Daddy and Mummy were so proud of him. We never expected him to jump from so high, in fact we were worried if he dared to jump down from the 3m platform.
My brave son's 5m dive:



Another 5m jump on day 3:



He tried a 3m head down 3m dive on the last day but because he was scared, his technique was wrong, His hands and head did not reach the water first so he was crying when he landed. His face and chest were all red.
The painful jump:

I was glad I sent him for this course just for his exposure. Really value for money course!
