More than just water confidence
There have been many studies that confirm water confidence is just one part of the benefits of learning to swim. Taking part in swimming lessons for those with disabilities can improve cognitive processing, speech and, coordination.
Private swimming lesson provides a safe and trusting environment. It allows the learner to experience wins, grasping skills without the physical strength requirements of many other activities. This often results in a great self-belief.
Swimming lessons are naturally therapeutic. They can bring calming benefits to children with sensory processing needs, particularly children with autism.
