In this section, I'll be talking about step number fourteen. Now, you're coming to the
very end of you know, really teaching that person whether it's a child, or teen-ager,
or an adult how to swim. And, as you've gone up to this point, they can already you know,
float on their face, kick their legs, use their arms, they know about the breathing.
Now, what you want to do is switch it up. Go to either an event, or a party, or have
some friends over that are around their age and you know, just let them enjoy the evening.
Because what's going to happen, is you're going to have some other people that can already
swim and that can already kick, but just like everything in life, when you see someone similar
to you, doing something that you're trying to learn, and you see them plain out just
doing it, then you're going to tend to actually just do it yourself, without even thinking
about all of the obstacles that you may have in your head. Or, you know if they're going
to go to a party, or what you could do as well, is maybe you know, have them go out
with some friends, take them to the pool, and either a public pool, or your pool, or
a relative's pool and just make sure there's other people around their age. And, just let
them have some fun and see what happens. That will, first off they've already learned all
the skills, and what tends to happen is as you're teaching someone, they try to figure
out in their head, just like you and me would is o.k, what step was after the next step,
after the next step, when really they've already been practicing it, and they already know
what to do, so when they're around other people their age, it's naturally going to come to
them. And, now it just took them from beginner or intermediate to extremely advanced, and
they're going to just do it naturally, and that's definitely step number fourteen, that
I would really suggest for you to do with them.
